Solar Pool Heater

Are you interested in getting hot water pool and extend your swimming season? Did you know that you can build your own pool heater and get better results that you buy in a store? There are ways to make a pool heater and get the water to be much warmer than we are accustomed. Here is a simple plan you use to about 12 degrees in water temperature in Indiana.
First, you will have to go to a local hardware store and obtain 100 feet of black pipe. This should be at least half an inch in diameter. You will also want to get about 10 to 15 feet of PVC pipe that can fit perfectly at the end of the black tube. You should be able to double the black tube and should not be really thick. You also need a 2 to 8 feet and 2 by 4s, valve closure that fits in the PVC pipe and a pump.
Then, you have to take the 2 by 4s and drill holes in them enough great for the black tube to fit between them. Then cut in half long way to taking a stand to hold the black tube. Now you have to run the black pipe round in tight loops without folds from 2 by 4s. You want 4 sections of 2 by 4's that are 4 feet long each.
Finally, you mount this part of the heating on a roof or somewhere that will be in direct sunlight. We mounted on a roof that was short more than a fenced in area for our dogs, but could be mounted in a shed or a house too. So, will connect the PVC pipes and shutoff valve to the return of the water and pump and some of the PVC to the other end. Be sure to mount the pump in a dry and flat.
