Solar Thermal & Pool Heating Systems in Canada

Solar thermal and pool heating systems are a cost-effective way to generate hot water for your home in Canada. As the original solar battery, solar water heating is not only a smart investment, it's the truest form of energy security and sustainability.

Solar Water & Pool Heating 

We provide the following quality solutions for your solar water heating needs in Canada:

  • Solar Water Heating: The best way to reduce your electricity costs and maintain comfort levels in Canada. Solar water heating systems use solar collectors to capture and convert sunlight into heat, providing a reliable and eco-friendly source of hot water. These systems are highly efficient and can significantly lower your utility bills, even in Canada’s diverse climate.
  • Solar Space Heating: Heating a pool can be a requirement in many parts of Canada, especially to extend swimming seasons or for indoor pools. Many homeowners and guests look forward to a warm pool, and a cold pool can put a damper on leisure activities. Heating a pool with electricity or gas is prohibitively expensive. Solar pool heating systems are an efficient and sustainable alternative that utilize the sun’s energy to maintain a comfortable pool temperature year-round.
  • Resilient: AET Solar thermal collectors and tanks are built to last, With a usable life regularly exceeding 20 years, this will be the last water heating you’ll ever need to buy.
  • Solar Pool Pump: If you have a pool, running the pump can be your biggest expense. A solar-powered pool pump can eliminate this significant cost by using solar energy to power the pump, reducing electricity consumption and operational costs.

Canada’s Energy Mix

Canada is a global leader in renewable energy, with a significant portion of its energy mix coming from renewable sources. The country's energy mix consists of:

  • Hydropower: The largest source of electricity, contributing around 60% to the national grid.
  • Wind and Solar: Renewable energy sources like wind and solar are rapidly expanding, contributing around 7-8% to the energy mix.
  • Nuclear Energy: Contributes about 15%.
  • Fossil Fuels: Natural gas and coal contribute the remaining portion.

Solar water heating fits perfectly into this renewable energy landscape by providing a direct way for households to utilize solar energy, further reducing reliance on non-renewable sources and enhancing energy security.
