Solar pool heating is the most cost-effective method of heating your pool at a cost of under 2¢ per kWh. Solar pool heaters are designed to replace the need for a gas heater or electric heat-pump, plus you can add two months to your pool season with free heat from the sun.

If you or someone you know is looking to purchase a pool heater this season, consider the following:

Fuel type	Natural gas	Electricity	Solar
Approximate fuel cost for pool season	$1000 to $1300	$1300 to $1500	$0
Approximate cost of pool heating unit + installation	$2800 to $3200	$2300 to $3500	$3500 to $5500
Total cost for first season of heating	$3800 to $4500	$3600 to $5000	$3500 to $5500
Estimated lifetime of pool heater	5 to 10 years	5 to 15 years	25 years

Compared to natural gas or electricity, a solar pool heater will pay for itself in less than 2 years. To get a warmer pool this summer, solar is definitely the way to go!
