Can pool solar panels be used to heat the house?
No. Solar pool panels and controls are designed specifically to heat a large volume of water in a swimming pool, and to operate in temperature ranges of 80 to 100 degrees. Household space heating and household hot water are different applications of solar, requiring the heating smaller volumes of household water to higher temperatures.
Solar Temp Solar Panels come in one size 3.0m x 1.2m.

Nothing, the Solar Temp Heating system forms part of your existing swimming pool configuration. The majority of residential Solar Temp Heating Systems use an automatically controlled valve to divert the existing filtration flow to the solar panels, so there is no additional cost to operate the solar pool panels. Most Pool pumps are adequate to control the flow through the Pool Heating System. Call us today to find out if your pool pump is suited for a Solar Temp Pool Heating System.
Solar Temp solar collectors are made of a class 9 pipe which has been manufactured with uv stabilizes and can you expect them to last between 20 to 25 years. Thousands of Solar Temp solar pool heating systems that were installed over 20 years ago are still going strong.
With a properly sized Solar Temp Heating System, a pool cover is normally not required to keep the pool at a comfortable temperature during the normal swimming season. However, a pool cover does help retain heat at night and prevent evaporation loss. The cover traps the solar heat that has been added during the day, and is very complementary to the solar system. The solar system can be viewed as actively adding heat. The cover retains that heat passively.
Usually no special maintenance is required during the season. Modern electronic controls allow you to “set and forget” the solar heater.
