Below are our recommendations for heating the Tolaga bay School Pool Pool solar heating as a primary heat source

  • Blanket to retain the heat and stop evaporation
  • Commercial quality roller and blankets that are durable and ling lasting
  • Filtration and pool renovation are outside pool heating scope. We have quoted as an estimated price and will need to do further works to bring up to minimum specification
  • Commercial heat pump solution
  • sustainability case study to follow. Initial assumptions are running pool solar heating vs running a heat pump

 

Roof solar placement and blanket reference below:

Solar performance:

We have the following assumptions. 30 degree target, pools are covered for 12 hours and we are sizing solar systems at 200% surface area compared to the size of the pool i.e. If the pool is 30sqm then solar heating will be 60sqm, or if the roof area allows.

Pool size is a 30sqm domestic pool. 

Commercial heat pump cost to run is much higher than a domestic heat pump.

*Weather pending and if sun allows. n.b. Rain and cool weather will effect the performance of the system. However, if it is cold then the likely hood to want to swim is less.
