Heating swimming pools with solar energy is a less traditional method. However, the most dominant application of solar warming of water is for heating swimming pools in the United States, Canada and Australia. Solar technologies are widely described as either active solar or passive solar depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute sunlight. For the use in heating swimming pools active solar techniques are utilized. The technique of using solar thermal panels (with electrical equipment, ie. water pump) to convert sunlight into useful output is a great way to supplement heating a pool naturally.
