Automatic pool heating system through solar collectors

Tired using water heaters and getting annoyed at the increased electricity bills? Then have a look at the advanced technology, that is, a solar collector which is an efficient water heating system. It is a device that concentrates sun radiation and converts into the heat energy that is used for various heating purposes. So, basically, it captures free energy from the sun and converts to usable heat energy effectively reducing the usage of gas and electricity bills.

There are several types of solar collectors in the market for various purposes from the basic like water heating at home to complex like water heating of swimming pools at hotels/home. Depending on the size and location of the pool, a proper solar collector is installed on the roof where the solar radiation is maximum and can be put to its full use.

So is it enough just to have the solar collector installed? Well, having it would surely increase the temperature of the water but does it stop when the desired temperature is reached? For this exact purpose, we have pool solar controller and as the name suggests, it is a controller to control the temperature of the pool water either manually or automatically.

Does it sound confusing? Well, here's the overview. So when the sun is out, solar collectors would heat up the water at the pool gradually and the pool solar controller checks the temperature using the sensors and if it equals the temperature that is set earlier(desired temperature), it will stop the pool heating or it can be controlled manually. It sounds simple, isn't it?

So what are the advantages of having this pool heating system?

• It reduces the cost of the electricity bills which is the best part
• The average pool usage time is increased for a year so one can relish the warm water for a longer time
• Environment-friendly because it doesn't need natural resources and doesn't emit any            harmful gases.
• Low maintenance and long durability roughly for 20 - 30 years.
• Noise-free heaters.

If one is planning to have a pool heating system installed, weren't the above mentioned are enough to proceed with the plan? One of the best places to look for this solar collector and pool solar controller would be Hydromatt, a company that manufactures the pool solar products. Website: https://www.hydromatt.com.au/

Use Of Solar Collector, Pool Covers And Pool Pump.

Solar Collector

A solar collector is used in transforming solar radiation into heat and transfers that heat to a medium (water, solar fluid or air). The solar radiation can be used to heat water to back up heating systems for heating swimming pools. A solar collector works on the principle of green house effect. The solar energy can be harnessed and put to work like heating of water and air. Solar thermal energy can be used in solar water heating systems, solar pool heaters and solar space heating systems. Solar collector can be flat-plate, evacuated-tube and integral collector storage systems. 

pool covers

Swimming pool covers are used to cover the pools when required. There are many benefits of using pool covers. Pool covers help in retaining the heat inside of a pool and cause a temperature increase. Pool covers also reduce the consumption of chlorine which can degrade under the influence of solar radiation. There is reduced evapouration when pool covers are used and less water will be wasted. When pool covers are used then there will be less organic material like leaves flowing onto the surface of the pool. The pool remains clean and free of organic matter when covers are used. There will be lesser load on the filter and chlorinator when a cover is used. There will be lesser problems with the pool when a cover is used and also less money will be spent in the maintenance of the pool.

Pool Pump

The main purpose of a pool pump is to circulate water through a filter. The pool pump takes water from the pool bottom drain and forces it through a filter, heater and chlorinator. Water is returned to the pool via a number of return fittings that are on the wall or the floor of the pool. For more information on solar collector, pool covers or pool pump visit Hydromatt
