The above graph shows the relative energy costs for using different types of swimming pool heaters including the SolarAttic solar pool heater. The costs shown above were the result of a 1988 energy cost study.  It can be observed that operating a SolarAttic PCS1 solar pool heater provides the lowest cost to heat a swimming pool.  One therm is equal to 100,000 Btus of energy. SolarAttic now provides a FREE "Guide to Pool Heating" with updated year 2000 energy data and detailed energy templates. With this Guide, you can calculate the energy costs for heating your pool with any energy option available in your area including those of solar pool heaters. This guide includes cost of energy updates and a new graph for our next generation attic solar pool heater, the PCS2. Energy costs to operate a heat pump pool heater are an estimated ten times higher than that of operating a SolarAttic solar pool heater. Therefore, the SolarAttic solar pool heater has an estimated payback period of 2-5 years when purchased instead of a pool heat pump pool heater. When compared to traditional fossil fuel pool heaters, the SolarAttic solar pool heater can pay for itself in as little as 1-3 years. Why pay for high energy costs each month when you have a great new alternative to traditional solar pool heater panels? SolarAttic offers SOLAR Without PANELS. With SolarAttic's next generation solar pool heater, you won't have solar panels spoiling your home and neighborhood's street appeal.
