Heating Systems

For many people, a nice, relaxing bath involves heated water. By heating the pool water, you can extend its use while also improving the pleasure that gives you a dive. Keep all the time at the temperature you want at any time of day.

How to heat my pool? Choosing the most suitable heating system.

There are two types of heating for swimming pools we recommend to be economically viable and more sustainable compared to other options available.

We recommend heat pumps with reversal cycle, and solar systems.

How does a Heat Pump Work?

"Air"  Heat pumps use free heat from the sun by collecting and absorbing energy from the air. This energy is then processed and transferred to the pool water. Its pump circulates pool water through the heat pump and heat the pool. A fan circulates air through the evaporator which drives the outer heat sink. The liquid air coil refrigerant absorbs heat in the existing environment transforming it into a gas. The gas refrigerant is then pumped into the compressor. When this heated gas is compressed, intensifies or concentrates the heat like a magnifying glass in the sun. This intense hot gas is then pumped through the heat exchanger and condenser where heat is transferred true. As the pool water passes through the heat exchanger, the hot gas gives its heat to the cold pool water. The refrigerant returns to the liquid state and is pumped through an expansion valve and then air into the evaporator to repeat the process again and it'ds called a vicious circle.

How a Solar System Works in a Swimming Pool?

This heat is absorbed by the solar liquid that lies within the panel is then conveyed with the aid of a pump through a duly insulated pipes, to the titanium heat exchanger, which transfers heat from the liquid to the pool water.

 

As with the solar heat pump systems are dimensioned taking into account the cubic content of the pool, the bather's utilization, geographical layout, solar incidence, incidence of the wind and the pool constructive system itself .

 

For example a swimming pool with overflow has more heat loss than a skimmers pool .

How to keep the water temperature of your pool.

It is necessary in all heating systems the installation of an isothermal cover. Without a cover the cost of heat pump consumption would double and the efficiency of a solar system would be much lower.

Becasuse all the heat gain during the day would be lost with decreasing outdoor temperature at night.

What is the Operation Cost?

Example: To maintain the water temperature at 28 C. in a 8mx4m pool with an average depth of 1.50 m, with little wind, in the Algarve, and needed a place 14,5kw average cost of electricity pump, will cost approximately With Coverage € 291 per year. No coverage would be 726 € per year.

 

NOTE: To heat the same pool Gas would cost: € 2,036.00 With coverage Per Year Without Coverage € 5,091.00 / year (not advised)..

 

A heat pump will heat your pool by 70% to 80% less money than Gas at approximately 50% to 60% of the natural Gas. A heat pump consumes much less than any other type of heating. The cost of consumption varies form the geographical location, favorite temperature, wind, sun exposure, use of cover and season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to your main questions.
Dreampools supports pool construction, renovation and modernisation projects, incorporating heating solutions suited to each installation’s characteristics. Equipment selection takes into account comfort, energy efficiency, intended use and each customer’s specific needs.
To request a quote, you can contact Dreampools through the channels available on the website. The team assesses the pool’s characteristics, existing equipment and heating requirements to recommend the most suitable solution.
The investment depends on the type of system chosen, pool dimensions, installation characteristics, equipment required and work involved. Dreampools analyses each situation individually to offer a solution tailored to the customer’s needs.
Yes. Heating systems can be incorporated into pools at hotels, spas, residential complexes and tourist developments. These solutions improve guest comfort and, depending on usage conditions, extend the period during which the pool is available at a suitable water temperature.
Maintenance depends on the type of equipment installed, but includes regular checks, cleaning components and monitoring the system’s operation. Proper maintenance helps preserve equipment efficiency and extend its service life.
Consumption depends on the type of system installed, equipment efficiency, pool dimensions, desired temperature and climate conditions. Choosing correctly sized equipment and using suitable covers can help reduce heat loss and improve the pool’s energy efficiency.
Yes. Many heating systems can be installed in existing pools, provided the installation’s technical conditions are assessed. Dreampools analyses factors such as available space, existing equipment, hydraulic connections and heating requirements to determine the most suitable solution.
The choice of heating system depends on several factors, including the pool’s dimensions, water volume, frequency of use, desired temperature and installation characteristics. Dreampools assesses each project to recommend the most suitable solution, considering options such as heat pumps and solar systems.
Yes. Solar thermal systems use the sun’s energy to heat pool water through equipment designed to capture solar radiation. Depending on the installation’s characteristics and exposure to sunlight, this solution can help reduce the use of other energy sources.
Heat pumps offer energy efficiency, water temperature control and operation tailored to usage requirements. Depending on the equipment chosen, they can help extend the swimming season and improve users’ comfort.
A heat pump is a device that uses thermal energy from the air to heat swimming pool water. This technology provides heating while using energy efficiently and is used in residential pools, hotels and other leisure facilities.
There are different pool heating solutions, including heat pumps, solar thermal systems, electric heating and heat exchangers. The choice depends on the pool’s characteristics, installation conditions, frequency of use, and comfort and energy efficiency objectives.
A heating system improves comfort when using the pool and extends the period during which the water temperature remains suitable for users. The choice of heating solution must consider the pool’s dimensions, climate conditions, frequency of use and desired temperature.
