What Is the Ongoing Cost of a Solar Pool Heater for a Tampa Homeowner?

Many Tampa homeowners have heard about the benefits of choosing a solar pool heater for their home. But cost is a common concern, as it is for all things. However, the truth is that a solar pool heater is indeed a smart choice for Florida homeowners, as the ongoing cost for running it is essentially nothing.

Is Solar Energy Really Free?

In short, yes! Solar energy is a natural, renewable resource that can be collected for residential use. With a solar pool heater installed, you can enjoy the benefits of having a heated pool, free from ongoing expense.

How Does it Work?

A solar pool heater works with your existing pool pump to naturally heat the water using the power of the sun. The pool water is moved through a series of valves and directed to your solar collectors. The water then enters the solar collectors and is heated as it rises through to the top. The water is then returned to the pool, and the cycle repeats until the pool is heated to the desired temperature.

How Does a Solar Pool Heater Compare to an Electric or Gas One?

As far as ongoing expense is concerned, solar is clearly the MVP. There are different types of electric and gas pool heaters; depending on the type of heater, along with other factors like the size of the pool and preferred temperature, the monthly expense of running an electric or gas pool heater could range from $100 to $600.

Excellent company, thorough, responsive, and all around amazing!! I'm so happy with my new A/C unit, attic turbine, and solar hot water heater. It has already saved me money on my electric bill.

This company worked very hard to remove my very old water heater. They did an excellent job installing my new one. Very professional, and kind. Willing to answer my questions also. Thank you.

Tony, the technician/plumber from Florida Energy Water & Air, was most pleasant, knowledgeable, professional. He arrived on completed the replacement of very old water heater including nearly 100% disappearance of the "knocking noise" in less than an hour, and cleaned up the work area very nicely at the end. I highly recommend his and FEWA to anyone needing these kind of services. Thanks Tony!

My experience with the team at Florida Energy Water & Air has been very positive throughout the whole process. I purchased the water treatment and air purification systems for my new home. Jack, the sales representative, did a very impressive job making the 2-hour demo fun, engaging, and interesting. I had no idea how much time had passed until it was over because he did such a great job keeping my attention. The installation was performed by Robenson a few hours later that same day! He was very professional and did a great job with the installation. I wasn’t a big fan of drilling a hole through my garage to run the water pipe, but he made the hole as small as possible and it looks like the house was built that way. He and his partner did a great job cleaning up after themselves. Finally, John was very friendly, professional, informative, and helpful during the post-installation quality inspection. Overall, it has been a very positive experience.
