UNGLAZED POOL SYSTEMS
Ambient Source provides Fafco solar pool heating products and systems that are regarded as the high-performance standard by which all other solar systems are measured. Fafco continues to set standards for the solar industry worldwide.
When the pool needs heating, water is diverted to the collectors where it is warmed and returned to the pool. Generally speaking, a pool will need a collector area equal to 50 to 75 per cent of the pool surface area.
The water temperature in swimming pools can be regulated using active solar heating systems, extending the swimming pool season. For outdoor pools, a properly sized solar water heater can replace a conventional heater saving a tremendous amount on fuel bills and extending the swimming season. Indoor pools that are used year round generally will have a conventional heater as backup. Using a pool blanket is highly recommended, regardless of how the pool is heated. Further, pool blankets reduce the loss of expensive pool chemicals through evaporation.
