Sizing and design
A practical quote should consider pool surface area, roof orientation, available collector area, filtration equipment, pipe runs and heat retention.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best type of pool heating in Melbourne?
Solar is often the best low-running-cost choice for the main swim season. Heat pumps or hybrid systems are better when you want more control or a longer season.
How big should my solar pool heating system be?
It depends on pool surface area, roof exposure and swim-season goals. Many systems are sized around a high proportion of the pool surface area, with Victorian homes often needing careful roof assessment.
Do I need a pool cover?
A pool cover is strongly recommended because evaporation is a major source of heat loss. It can help the pool stay warmer for longer.
Can I start with solar and add a heat pump later?
In many cases yes, provided the original design allows for future upgrades. We can discuss staged options during quoting.
