How to make a heated pool

Private pool has long been an attribute of many country houses.The building is nothing complicated technology long ago worked out, and its presence is a lot of fun, both adults and children.

But building a pool on the street, you will find yourself at the mercy of the vagaries of the weather.If the summer is not very warm, it is unlikely that you will be able to swim in it every day, and even more so do not let the water splash in the cold for children.Excellent output - heating.To understand how to make a heated swimming pool - the purpose of this article.

as a heated pool water

Whichever type of pool you have not organized: if bought ready-made or built from scratch, without heating can not do.With water heating system should be defined already at the stage of designing the pool.There are many ways.The water is heated using:

• heat exchanger;
• electric heaters;
• heat pumps;
• solar panels;
• fuel heaters.

use of heat exchange equipment

Works equipment is as follows:

• carry out the connection to the house heating system, if only for the pool, you have not provided a separate system;
• given temperature.When the water reaches this figure, the heat exchanger will simply maintain it constantly.

It looks like a typical connection of the heat exchanger bypass circuit:

This option is the most popular and has a lot of advantages:

• used for indoor pools and for those that were built in the courtyard;
• ability to connect the equipment to heat your home;
• relatively economical;
• large range of heat exchangers for sale.

Important: before you make a purchase of the heat exchanger, calculate its power needs, given the volume indicators of its pool and where it is located: in the house or in the yard.For the pool, located outside of its scope and power of the heat exchanger are the same, but for the indoor swimming pool, power is equal to three-quarters of its volume in cubic meters.m. The heat exchanger for swimming pools produced by many manufacturers.Some models, the most popular, consider:

Pahlen HI-FLO (HF) 40 horizontal

releases this heat exchanger in Sweden.Manufacturer Pahlen.Features the following:

• consumes 40 kW;
• installed horizontally;
• dimensions: 13,9h12,9h45,5h8,5 cm;
• 2 contour;
• connection must be carried out by experts.

work comes under the following rules:

• pump draws in the heat exchanger housing the water that circulates in the same direction;
• heating water to a temperature that you set occurs during its contact with the spiral;
• solenoid valve blocks the circulation of water, preventing it from overheating.

Note: manufacturer Pahlen manufactures heat exchangers and other facilities, both in horizontal and in vertical design: the range of 13 to 308 kW.

exchanger Behncke QWT 100-20

• manufactured in Germany;
• consumes 20 kW at 90 and 15 kW at 60 degrees C;
• 2 contour;
• connected to the heating system;
• stainless steel;
• heats the pool water from the central heating network, due to the presence of 2 combined couplings.

Electric heaters for heating swimming pools

electric heater is expedient to heat the pool small volume.Using it for large pools will entail the payment of huge electricity bills.Here is a diagram of its tie-in:

Electric released:

• stainless steel;
• plastic.

heating elements in electric heaters are made of durable materials:

• titanium;
stainless steel
• .

Electric heat exchanger different from the following characteristics:

• prerequisite for the connection of the electric heater is the presence of the flow sensor.If the system is no water, the sensor operates and disconnects the electric heater.For normal operation, it should be embedded on a straight section and shut-off valves in no way should it cut off;
• presence of an external thermostat is not necessary, because thein an internal electric heaters;
• lest there be airing an electric heater at the termination of water supply in the pipeline, it is necessary to preserve the line of the water column with a minimum height of 50 cm

Behncke EWT 80-70 / 3kW -. Electric from Germany

Besides heat exchangers are supplied from Germany and electric heatersfor heating water in the pool.Well it showed itself in Behncke EWT 80-70 / 3kW.

Features:

• consumes 3 kW;
• required voltage - 400 V;
• body material - stainless steel;
• heating elements are made of an alloy of very high quality - Incoloy 825.

Electric Elecro Flow Line Titan Plus, from 3 to 18 kW

From the UK we are receiving high-quality heaters Elecro Flow Line Titan Plus.Features:

• equipped with very reliable flow sensor, providing low consumption - 1 thousand liters per hour.
• has a swivel arm, with which you can install it, both horizontally and vertically;
• adjustment range from 0 to 40 degrees C.

Electric water in the pool can be made, and himself, taking advantage of the experience passed in this video:

heat pumps

heating water for swimming pools and madeheat pumps.They have their own advantages:

• for heat pumps use the energy of the environment.The principle is the same as that of the refrigerator, it selects only from cold and generates its ambient air, and the heat pump - heat;
• relatively small capacity;
• minimum power consumption;
• work from a home outlet;
• easy to install and take up little space.

heat pump FAIRLAND

Procopi French company has been producing heat pumps for pools horizontal and vertical.

Features pumps FAIRLAND:

• its quiet rotary compressor operate with minimum vibration;
• has a digital controller that allows you to conveniently adjust the temperature;
• low temperature protection is activated, the system automatically defrosts;
• pump used in the manufacture of cold-resistant materials;
• recommended for ponds up to a volume of 20 100 cubic meters.

Heated outdoor pools with pumps series Pioneer

Pioneer Series Thermal pumps, which are used to heat the street Basin, produced in China.In this case:

• manufacturer uses innovative technology to HP-BOOSTER, which makes the pumps very productive.Suffice it to say that at a rate of 1 kW of power, it turns 7 kW of heat energy;
• materials used are durable, do not corrode;
• electric part is at the top, which is very easy maintenance;
• features automatic defrosting;
• operating temperature range from 0 ° - 43 ° C.

Solar

If your location most of the time the sun is shining, it is possible to heat the pool water using solar panels or collectors.

Features heating system by solar panels:

• high environmental friendliness;
• for self-install a minimum cash outlay;
• additional temperature sensors are not required;
• water is heated while passing through the collector, which is a large flat items.These elements consist of thin tubes of polypropylene black.

Installation requires compliance with the following rules:

• filtration system - the place where the solar heater is placed.The water constantly circulates and warms up gradually;
• battery itself is located near the pool or on the roof.Turning solar energy receivers should be on the south or south-west;
• water temperature is adjusted manually or automatically;
• than larger volume pool, the more powerful battery.

If the pool is small, it is quite suitable heater Solar Pool Heater, they can be even more put.

Solar Pool Heater

This small heater.Its dimensions 580h580h254 mm.This video shows how it is built and installed:

Features:

• can work with almost any pump;
• raises the water temperature to 10-12 ° C;
• made in China.

Fuel heaters for heating

pool is a cost-effective alternatives pool heating with fuel heaters.But only for the pool, to arrange such a system is not profitable, it can heat and other objects.Systems with fuel heaters operate on:

• oil;
• gas;
• solid fuel.

Just pick up and install the fuel heater will not work, will have to run pre and:

• obtain a special permit;
• execute documents;
• register;
• take fire prevention measures;
• perform chimney;
• install automatic.

Having passed all the stages of approvals, it is better to invite a specialist to install the fuel heater - so it will be safer.Once-through fuel heater is arranged quite simply:

• it has a coil.This is where the water is heated and the combustion of fuel;
• equipped with heating circulation pump, filtration and automation systems;
• water heating is controlled by sensors.

can organize heated pool with their hands, gathering a simple heater, where fuel will be wood.

• carry a thick metal container that will serve as a furnace;
• put into the furnace coil;
• put in the middle of wood and ignite.Everything, as in the photo above.

As you can see options for heating outdoor pools are many, the main thing - to make a good choice, and life will sparkle with new colors, both here in this video:
