So, if you for example have a pool that is 5m long and 4m wide the pool surface is 5 x 4 = 20m². You will therefore need at least 20\/2 = 10m² of solar panels. The Heliocol HC38 panel has a surface area of 3.5m² and so you will need a minimum of 3 of these panels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a thermal pool blanket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe thermal losses on the surface of a pool is significant and can drastically cool down the pool. This will get worst when even a slight cool breeze is blowing over the surface of the pool. The more the thermal loss the more panels you would need to try and maintain the desired temperature. It is therefore highly recommended to always use a thermal pool blanket to cover the pool when not in use. Even for indoor swimming pools this is important as the evaporation from the surface of the pool will cause heat loss and high levels of humidity inside the building.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease note that the use of the correct type of pool thermal blanket will also substantially reduce evaporative water loss, filtration pump time and chemical use and therefore we would highly recommend it even if you are not interested in a heated pool.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I install my pool heating panels?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn order to ensure maximum system efficiency and full warranty coverage it is recommended that the system is installed by an authorized installer.
