How does a solar system work?

1 Set automatic control unit for desired water temperature.
2 Sensor detects change in solar heat and tells the FAFCO automatic control unit when there is energy available to work efficiently.
3 Your existing pool pump sends cold water from the pool through the solar collectors.
4 The FAFCO solar panels transfer the sun's heat to the pool water as it travels through the panels.
5 Warm, solar heated water flows back into the pool using your existing pool returns. This process continues until the pool reaches the desired temperature.

Heat Pump Pool Heating Options

An alternative to solar pool heating that is also far more cost effective than gas or electric resistance units is a dedicated heat pump. FAFCO now offers a new high efficiency unit for energy conscious consumers.

These units are essentially air conditioners that run in reverse. Instead of removing the heat from inside a house and dumping it outside, heat is removed and then released to the water from the pool as it passes by the freon gas in the evaporator coil.  When sizing a heat pump pool heater it is important to provide a unit that is large enough to heat the pool during the typical 8-9 hour run time for the pool pump. If this run time is also during the daylight hours the efficiency of the unit is greatly enhanced.
