solar heating for pool
 

Hi all, can anyone give me an idea of how much it would cost to install solar heating to heat our pool, were moving soon so may invest in this to take the chill off. also any recommendations on companys to use, on a tight budget, so need to keep that in mind. thanks again :D

sorry, our heating was already in place when we moved in. But it is definitely worth it, we are already using the pool.

I think we paid 2k extra for it when the pool was built.

We recommend Deluxe Pool Heating to all our customers.

Owned by an English Guy called Steve Templeman.
Top bloke. I used to work with him.
Very good product.

Remember to let him know that I recommended him!:D

Being a cheapskate i bought mine out of the quokka, 2nd hand. we paid someone to install it and upgraded the control box. It's been up 2 years now and we've had no bother with it, we've been using the pool for the last few weeks and it is a lovely 30degrees just now. I think it cost us around $1200 including the installation.

Try a solar blanket? $350ish plus roler, probably all in would be about $700 or there abouts.
