Solar energy is just another fuel with which to heat your pool. A properly designed solar pool system can achieve the same results as other fuels. On days when you can relax comfortably in a bathing suit at poolside, but the water is too cold for swimming, solar energy can heat your pool to a temperature comfortable for swimming.

The solar collectors are generally mounted on the roof however, the collectors can also be ground mounted or installed on a patio cover.

Since the sun's energy is free, there are no operating costs.

The cost of installing an electric heat pump is generally comparable to the cost of a
solar heating system. The annual cost of electricity to run a heat pump may be two
thirds of the cost of natural gas or one third the cost of electricity for a conventional
resistance electric heater; but the sun's energy is FREE

Yes. Simply set your spa circulation cycle at the end of the day and set the thermostat
for 104 degrees.

If you choose a manual system, a diverter valve allows you to turn your solar system on or off. Another option is an automatic heating system, which works like the thermostat you use for home heating & cooling. Simply set the electronic controller to your desired water temperature. If the temperature of pool or spa is lower than desired, the controller turns the motorized valve to allow the pool or spa water to flow through the hot solar collectors. When the pool or spa water reaches the same temperature as the collectors, the controller turns the valve again so the pool or spa water will no longer flow through the system.
