While the best benefit of owning a solar heat pump is quick and effective hot water to swim in, extending the use of your pool during the off-seasons.

In contrast to other pool heating methods, solar heat pumps have more unique benefits to individuals due to their incredible health benefits, eco-friendly sustainability, and cost-effective values. No wonder solar pool heating is the most widely selected option for Australian pools!

Encourages More Exercise

It is common knowledge that a pool heat pump allows families to enjoy more time in their pool. Not only is this a social benefit, but a health benefit as spending time swimming is one of the best low-impact physical activities for humans.

A warmer pool encourages more of the family to enjoy swimming in the backyard pool for exercise, which overall improves their health. Solar pool pumps are essential for small children and elderly individuals in order to make their swimming experience more comfortable.

Solar pool heating is the most energy-efficient method of pool heating, usually increasing pool temperatures by 6-10 degrees. Even on a 20-degree day, a solar pool heater installation will effectively heat your pool up to 30 degrees!

Not only do solar pool heater installations encourage healthy practices like exercise, but also the warm water soothes human bones and muscles. Warm water aids the body to repair itself more efficiently, decreasing muscle swelling, relieves joint and bone tension and allows our bodies to relax better.

Environmentally Healthy

Especially in 2021, we all understand that environmental impacts affect our health on an individual basis. So, rest assured with Solartech, our solar pool heating products reduces your carbon footprint, keeping yourself and the environment safe.

Solartech uses state-of-the-art solar pool pumps and solar blankets for pools, installed by our trained solar pool heating experts. The best part of installing a solar water heater for your pool is that it is an environmentally conscious solution whilst being cost-effective and easy to maintain.

While solar electricity, in general, is the most eco-friend option for energy, at SolarTech, we recommend a solar blanket for pool as the most environmentally responsible solution for swimming pool heating.

A one-piece solar blanket is the most effective and environmental pool cover because it is the most resourceful solar device to retain pool heat and uses the least amount of energy. The solar blanket for pool acts like a shield, protecting the water from sporadic gusts of wind, cold rain and other forces of nature that contributes to the cooling of your pool’s water.

At Solartech, we supply Daisy Solar Pool Blankets and Rollers, which not only act as a covering to block out trash getting into your pool, but also deliver maximum heating, insulation, durability and value. Daisy’s commercial rollers are built tough from marine grade aluminium and stainless steel to provide years of trouble-free, reliable service and carry a 10-year pro-rata warranty.

Less Stress About Money

Extended periods of stress that stay around for weeks or months can weaken the immune system and cause high blood pressure, fatigue, depression, anxiety and even heart disease. In general, stress is bad for human health; the most significant cause of stress in today’s society is stress over money.

Luckily solar heat pumps are the most cost-effective way to heat your backyard pool. For example, a gas-heater for your pool will cost about five times more than a solar heat pump would cost.

The most cost-effective and best-performing method of heating your swimming pool is using two or more solar pool heating solutions simultaneously.

For example, indoor air conditioning and pool heating works the same – would you use your air conditioner or heater and leave your home’s windows open? Isn’t that a waste, right? Well, the same is true for pooling heating; without a solar blanket, the heat from a solar pump can evaporate.

A solar pool pump will achieve your desired temperature, while the solar panel heater will sustain the temperature, and the solar blanket will shield the water from outside elements.

A solar pool pump works most efficiently on cloudy days and during the sun-less nights, while a solar panel heater works best on sunnier days to maintain the solar pool pump’s hard work. 

Therefore, solar pool heaters benefit your mental health and, as a result, encourages good physical health.

How Much Do Solar Heaters Cost at SolarTech?

Swimming pool heating prices are primarily dependent on the size of your pool. For example, a larger pool will need a larger solar pool heating unit to be most effective. That said, environmental conditions and climate will also help determine the best solar pool heating product necessary for your home. But in general, a solar pool heating system could cost anywhere from $3,000 to $7,000.

Solar pool heating is the most popular choice of heating systems for pools in Australia, as the technology works best in a warm and sunny climate. This is because solar heaters are more consistent throughout the year, as the power collected on hot summer days can be used in the depths of cold winters. It is also the most environmentally friendly method of heating a pool as it uses energy from the sun and is the most cost-effective pool heating option.
