| Economics of Solar Swimming Pool Heating |

|
Solar heating of swimming pools is highly attractive in Arizona since it can extend the swimming season for outdoor pools significantly - by at least two months in both spring and fall - more if a pool cover is used. Thus the time pools can be used is at least doubled.
Initial costs of a solar installation are estimated in the $3,000 to $4,0000 range for a typical home pool, which is similar to the cost of natural gas installations. However, the cost of heating pools with gas can run to several hundred dollars per month so that the payback period for solar units is very short (average 18 months).
