I would say that you would connect the heated water to the entrance of the pump so the pump pulls the water into it. Another hose maybe after your skimmer unit would take the water to the heating unit. You might have to have another pump to pull or push the water to the roof so that it can be heated. This would probably depend on the height of the roof and the total distance that it would have to go outside of the pool. It would probably be easier just to get a heat pump to replace the pump that is already there. Then the water would heat at the pump and you wouldn't have to have the hoses exposed. That is my two cents. Good luck.
You could never recoup the costs involved by using copper pipe exlcusively. There would be no savings involved here just an immense cost and I would think not too efficient.
No; green hair is caused by copper pipes. Just rinse your hair in water that has not gone through the pool plumbing after swimming.
The purpose of a swimming pool heat pump is to rise the temperature of the water. The pool then can be used for swimming even on days when the weather is not perfect. The swimming pool season is extended.
The only negative reaction you might have is from pool water being unbalanced. When the pH is low the water is corrosive and may cause damage to copper pipes. There are no "reactions" with chlorine.
Alegria is a good reseller if you want to buy a heat pump for your swimming pool (in Belgium).
I see no reason why you would insulate them. When you close your pool for winter you will purge (empty) your pump and pipes. The water in the pool would freeze long before the water will in the pipes under ground.
Quite so. The water in a swimming pool is cooler than body temperature (unless the swimming pool is actually a hot tub) and therefore, a person in that pool will lose heat by conduction.
You would call your local swimming pool contractor for an estimate and advice. This would be something that only they are equipped to handle.
no you need a stronger heater specifically designed for a swimming pool
Chlorine Generators will not hurt a heat exchanger, but a bad PH will , youll have an easier time with PH with a generator which produces a pH of 7.0. A Chlorine generator makes pool maintenance easy. No problems with any pool equipment with the salt gens. enjoy. getapool.com good swimming Yes, ensure that your heater is properly bonded along with your salt/chlorine generator and your pump motors. All 3 pieces of equipment include a bonding lug that should utilize a #6 copper bonding wire which should in turn be connected to the pool perimeter bond. In regards to your copper pipes, a current collector is recommended.
Hair bleaches in the pool not because of the chlorine, but because of the metals and copper in the water. If the pool has a high concentration of metals and copper, then yes, it will appear or turn a faint green.
copper staining! It has nothing to do with the chlorine or bromine in the pool. They may be running an ionizer or have treated heavily with algaecides that contain copper compounds. Their pool may be out of balance and is leeching copper from the heat exchanger if they have a heater in the pool.how to fix this problem:use white vinegar or bakig soda
Cooper or coPPer ? Too much cOOper , then ask Cooper to get out of the pool !!
