Go green and get a solar pool heater

nationalpoolwholesalers1Being conscious of our impact on the environment is something we must do every day. Reducing our carbon imprint is imperative; this involves rethinking some of the devices we use and switching to solar power instead. A solar pool heater is one such device.

Nobody likes to swim in cold water and having a heated pool is a real luxury. However, heating up a large volume of water is a drain on your wallet as well as the national grid. Using a solar pool heater can wipe out both these problems and give you a heated pool right throughout the year (as long as you have the sun showing). Using solar power in other areas related to your pool can also be beneficial.

Your automatic pool cleaner, for instance, can be powered by solar power. This not only eliminates the tedious task of cleaning the pool, but it also eliminated the extremely costly electricity bills as well. In this way you can use solar power to light up your pool (internally and externally), run your cleaning plant and even power up your Jacuzzi.

One more thing you can do to make your heated pool more efficient is to use pool safety covers. Not only do these protect you and your family from accidentally falling in, but the all-weather type of covers will inadvertently trap the heat and hold it in.This can be very beneficial for you and your solar power system.
