Overview: An unheated swimming pool has a natural yearly temperature cycle that varies with climate and geography, which in most parts of the United States limits outdoor swimming to just the summer months. However, a comfortable three to four month swimming season can be stretched out to five or six months when a pool heater is added (even longer in warm climates). While heating their pool can enhance and extend their enjoyment of their pool, the cost of keeping all that water warm is very high. However, if they take advantage of the strong summer sun, they can reduce those high heating costs while still obtaining the benefits of a warm pool.
