The advent of solar water heaters for the pool has been a boon for many, be it for those with an outdoor pool or especially for those with the cold, indoor ones. The solar water heaters, for one, use the natural and extensively available solar energy, bringing with it the advantage of saving money on energy bills. And, another effective reason is its efficiency and lifetime of service when compared to other kinds of water heaters.

To understand how or why solar water heaters have proven to be a successful means of heating up homes and pools, let us look at the way they operate.

Solar water heaters for the pool, work on the same principle as those used for heating up homes. The solar heaters come with ultra-tech new-age vacuum tubes which are much more efficient than the plastic panels used earlier. Now, with these tubes, and the heat exchanger the heaters possess, it is easier to heat the pool water without having to chug it all the way up against the gravity.

So, the solar heaters for the pool now work towards storing up all the sun’s energy from dawn to dusk, without interruption. Even a cloudy day does not stop them from storing up the energy from the sun and using it efficiently at a later stage. Also, if it is an indoor pool, such heaters working on natural energy can help you save cost on the high energy bills associated usually with heating them up. The most beneficial part of using these solar heaters is that they can be clubbed with the home heating systems, or used alternatively to heat up your home and pool.

For instance, when the pool is not in use in the winter months, the whole system can be transformed so as to use it as a heater for your home. Also, with the efficiency of the vacuum tubes and the heat exchangers that comes with the new-age solar water heaters, the pool season can be extended to a few more months too.

So, the new solar water heaters for pool available in the market today comes with innumerable advantages, other than saving copious amount in energy bills. And, apart from all this, we are using renewable resources too, indirectly saving the environment from getting further exploited. All it takes now is for everyone to slowly adapt this change to make our homes and pools all set to heat up whether the sun is bestowing its blessing upon us or not.
