It’s Time To Think About Heating Your Pool Water
You may not be thinking about autumn and cooler temperatures, but it will happen. The calendar is moving toward Fall and with that comes the thought, “Should I close my pool?” The geothermal experts at Symbiont Service Corp say, “it’s time to think about heating your pool water” instead of closing the pool.
There are myriad ways to heat the pool water to extend your swim season; sometimes year-round! When you use a swimming pool heat pump you’re heating the pool water in an energy-efficient way. Using electricity to transfer heat from one place (the outside ambient air) to the next instead of (warming the pool water) generating heat, a heat pump is an energy efficient way to heat the pool water and extend your swim season.
It’s Time To Think About Heating Your Pool Water
As always, we recommend you work with a professional to have a heat pump installed. A pool water heating and geothermal specialist will know how to properly size the heat pump to effectively and efficiently heat the pool water without wasting energy and costing you more money unnecessarily.
What goes into proper heat pump sizing?
- What average temperature do you want the pool water?
- What is the average temperature where you live in Florida?
- Next we will calculate the desired pool water temperature and subtract the average ambient temperature during the coldest month of use where you live
- Other calculations and considerations include: the surface are of the pool calculated in square feet and the wind and shade conditions where the pool is located
- The energy efficiency rating of the pool pump you’re considering purchasing
Your Symbiont technician will discuss the coefficient of performance (COP) of the heat pump you’re looking at investing in. The COP rating will be a determining factor in the heat pump that will work most efficiently for your unique swimming pool.
Once the heat pump has been installed it’s important to have it serviced annually to maintain maximum efficiency. The trained technicians at Symbiont Service Corp have been installing and servicing swimming pool heat pumps fore more than two decades.
