2. Swimming pool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swimming_pool

   Outdoor pools gain heat from the sun, absorbing 75–85% of the solar energy striking the pool surface. Though a cover decreases the total amount of solar heat absorbed by the pool, the cover eliminates heat loss due to evaporation and reduces heat loss at night through its insulating properties. Most swimming pool heat loss is through evaporation.

3. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

   ETCs can be used for heating and cooling purposes in industries like pharmaceutical and drug, paper, leather and textile and also for residential houses, hospitals, nursing home, hotels, swimming pool etc. An ETC can operate at a range of temperatures from medium to high for solar hot water, swimming pool, air conditioning and solar cooker.

4. Solar thermal energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy

   Solar heat (or heat from other sources) can be effectively stored between opposing seasons in aquifers, underground geological strata, large specially constructed pits, and large tanks that are insulated and covered with earth. Short-term storage. Thermal mass materials store solar energy during the day and release this energy during cooler ...

   Bans on large gas-fired units and pool heaters will begin in 2027, and high-temperature units in 2029. Gas-fired water heaters will be banned from existing buildings once the appliances reach a ...

6. Solar thermal collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_collector

   Commonly used in swimming pool heating since solar energy's early beginnings, unglazed solar collectors heat swimming pool water directly without the need for antifreeze or heat exchangers. Hot water solar systems require heat exchangers due to contamination possibilities and in the case of unglazed collectors, the pressure difference between ...

7. Renewable thermal energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renewable_thermal_energy

   The most popular form of renewable thermal energy is the sun and the solar energy is harvested by solar collectors to heat water, buildings, pools and various processes. Another example of Renewable Thermal is a Geothermal or ground source Heat Pump (GHP) system, where thermal stored in the ground from the summer is extracted from the ground to ...
