Pool Heating & Solar

Heat pumps, electric and solar heating to extend your swimming season.

Swim earlier in the year, later into autumn, and on the cooler days between. A little heat turns a summer pool into one you use for months. Add it to a new pool or fit it to one you already have.

Three ways to warm the water: a heat pump, an electric heater, or solar. We help you pick the right one for your pool and your budget.

Heat pumps

The efficient choice for season-long heat. A heat pump draws warmth from the air and moves it into the water, using a fraction of the energy an electric heater would. Inverter models run quietly and adjust to the weather. Sized from small pools up to the largest.

Electric heaters

Fast, precise heat from a compact unit — good for quick top-ups and smaller pools. From a plug-and-play 2.3 kW heater up to 90 kW for a big pool. Simple to fit, instant to control.

Solar heating

Free heat from the sun. Solar collectors warm the water as the pump pushes it through, with no running cost. Best paired with a solar cover to hold the heat in. A pod for smaller pools, or a tube array for more.

Which heater is right?

  • Heat pump — lowest running cost, best for heating all season.
  • Electric — cheapest to buy, quick to warm a small pool.
  • Solar — no running cost, works best in sunny spells with a cover.
  • Not sure? — tell us your pool size and how you swim, and we'll advise.

Not very. A modern inverter heat pump runs at a low hum, much like a home air-conditioning unit, and quietens further at lower speeds. Site it a short way from where you sit and you will barely notice it.

It depends on the size of the pool and how warm you want the water. Tell us the pool and we will match a heat pump to it — an undersized unit runs constantly, an oversized one costs more than it needs to.

Yes. Solar collectors warm the water as the pump circulates it, with no running cost once fitted. They work best through the sunnier months and pair well with a solar cover to hold the heat overnight.
