Sun related Facts about Solar Energy:
Sunlight travels to the earth in approximately 8 minutes from 93,000,000 miles away, at 186,282 miles per second.
The sun is also the main source of non-renewable fossil fuels (coal, gas and petroleum), which began life as plants or animals whose energy came from the sun millions of year ago.
Solar energy is responsible for weather patterns and ocean currents.
Clouds, pollution and wind can prevent the sun's rays from reaching the earth.
Facts about Solar Energy usage:
Solar Energy is measured in kilowatt-hour. 1 kilowatt = 1000 watts.
1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) = the amount of electricity required to burn a 100 watt light bulb for 10 hours.
According to the US Department of Energy, an average American household used approximately 866-kilowatt hours per month in 1999 costing them $70.68.
About 30% of our total energy consumption is used to heat water.

Solar pool heating is the most economical method to heat your pool and extend the swim season. The versatile design of our pool system allows it to be installed in any region for indoor and outdoor use. Because we use a closed loop design, the system offers you the highest amount of durability and longevity.
Features:
• |
All components included (less piping) |
• |
Year-round pool heating |
• |
Closed loop system prevents corrosion from harmful pool chemicals |
• |
Freeze and boil-out protection without the need for draining |
HOW IT WORKS
When there is sufficient heat to be drawn from the collectors, the pool controller automatically activates the pumps and circulates the heated solar fluid. The solar fluid will pass through a heat exchanger, transferring its heat to the pool water passing through the exchanger. The heated pool water is then circulated through a filter and back into the pool while the solar fluid is circulated back to the collectors to be reheated. This circulation loop will continue as long as there is heat to be drawn from the collectors
WHAT'S INCLUDED
