The sun is the ideal source of energy to heat water in swimming pools: comfortable, reliable and perpetual. At the same time, the sun also contributes substantially to the reduction in the costs of energy, because less gas is required to heat the water.
Various swimming pool owners have already discovered that the use of solar power gives benefits:
- Lower energy costs because the heating boiler provides no or little additional heating.
- The use of solar power is an environmentally-friendly way of heating the water in swimming pools.
- Extension of the swimming season by two months (in comparison to an unheated open-air pool).
In addition, solar-power systems require little or no maintenance. Opting for a solar-power system therefore means opting for future-orientated and cost-effective technology, without making concessions in terms of comfort.
Solar Collector: heat all of the time!
The most important part of a solar-power system is the collector, which converts sunlight into heat. Collectors can be placed either on the roof or on the ground. Even when the sky is cloudy, the collectors are still able to supply heat. They have, in fact, been built in such a way that they convert light into heat. If the sun shines in abundance, the water will heat up quickly. If it is cloudy, it will take a little longer for the water to reach the required temperature. Collectors supply sufficient heat to, for example, keep an outside pool at a pleasant temperature for almost the whole swimming season, or to contribute to heating the water in an indoor swimming pool throughout the year.
Particularly flexibly and aesthetically high-quality this solar plant adapts to almost any roof form.
Even the vertical assembly at a wall or the horizontal assembly on a flat roof is possible.
Today, solar energy is the only economic means which makes it possible to double the period of use and to improve comfort of the pools. Range POLYTUB® adapts to all the situations (terrace, gardens, roofings, etc) and to all the budgets.
1 - POLYTUB S - For an installation on the ground
Flexible solar collector POLYTUB "S" is particularly intended for the installations to measure.
The matter used (EPDM) in its manufacture brings the flexibility necessary to him making it possible to marry all surfaces whatever is their form (big lengths, roofs with several slopes, triangles, hillocks of ground, large terraces...).
Proposed in rollers, the POLYTUB "S" can be cut out to adapt to the type of surface you have.
2 - POLYTUB M - For installations on roofing
Modular solar collector POLYTUB "M" is especially designed for installations on roofing.
The matter used (Polypropylene) in its manufacture, confers rigidity to him allowing a good behavior and an excellent esthetic aspect.
The originality and the quality of its design allow a fast and simplified installation.
3 - Principle of operation of Polytub
Two types of connections are proposed: automatic or handbook, according to the typology of the pool and of its use.
Modular solar collector POLYTUB "M" is especially designed for installations on roofing.
The matter used (Polypropylene) in its manufacture, confers rigidity to him allowing a good behavior and an excellent esthetic aspect.
