Solar Pool Heating
If you're thinking about heating your swimming pool or already do so with natural gas or electricity, you should definitely consider a solar pool heating system. By far one of the most cost-effective investments you can make, a solar pool heating system will pay itself off in a matter of a few years when compared to natural gas or electric heat pumps.
In the table below we've entered data from an NRCAN publication entitled An Introduction to Solar Pool Heating Systems that shows the initial, annual and 15-year system costs of natural gas, electric heat pump, and solar pool heating systems. This table was developed with energy prices for natural gas and electricity from the year 2001...that means the economics of the solar system look even better today!
| Type of Heater | Installation Cost | Annual Costs Fuel & Maintenance | Total Cost After 15 Years |
| Natural Gas | $2,300 - $4,900 | $350 - $1,200 | $7,550 - $22,900 |
| Electric Heat Pump | $3,100 - $6,400 | $160 - $500 | $5,500 - $13,900 |
| Solar | $3,100 - $5,000 | $0 - $50 | $3,100 - $5,750 |
