Seahorse Pools & Spas contractors offer solar power heating tips
Turning to a free resource that shines from the sky in Fort Worth, Texas — and across the country — to warm your swimming pool water is something that many cost conscious pool owners are talking with the swimming pool contractors from Seahorse Pools & Spas about. People are becoming more aware of the environment and are looking for ways to preserve natural resources and one of those ways is through solar energy. It is a popular source of energy and can be used to heat your swimming pool water.
Whether you turn to installing solar panels to generate energy for the pool — and for your entire house, for that matter — or use a solar swimming pool cover, using solar can cut the amount of money you pay for your electricity bills. In fact, some individuals have noted they went from paying more than $1,000 a month to less than $200; this could be an extreme example, but the potential for savings are there for any pool owner who opts for solar.
Your swimming pool contractor can help you determine whether solar heating is right for you and he can also let you know what the up front costs will be and how long it might take you to see a return on your investment. A study completed by the Solar Energy Industries Association found that nearly installation might cost around $4000 to $6000 a year and if the panels are installed correctly, a homeowner could see a return on investment in fewer than two years.
