Heat Your Swimming Pool Effectively With Gas Pool Heaters

Swimming in your private pool is truly a great way to have fun and enjoy life. By keeping your pool water warm and welcoming, you will be creating an even more enjoyable environment for your family and friends. Gas pool heaters provide a great way to heat your pool and keep the water at a comfortable temperature in order to maximize every swimming experience. With their cost and efficiency benefits, swimming pool gas heaters are a great alternative to more costly electric heaters and come with many outstanding features. Considering today's economy and the current cost of electricity, gas pool heaters present a great option for every swimming pool owner.

Swimming pool gas heaters come in two basic types, namely propane heaters and natural gas heaters. Both of these types of gas swimming pool heaters are high-performing and can heat larger volumes of water in less time than electric heaters. This means that you can start swimming faster with gas heaters and you and your family can enjoy an extended swimming season. In addition to heating water faster, propane and natural gas heaters for swimming pools are also less expensive to operate than electric pool heaters so they will save you money. In today's economy, that's definitely a benefit that should not be overlooked!

While both propane gas pool heaters and natural gas heaters are more efficient and less costly to operate than electric heaters, they share their own differences with respect to cost and efficiency. Although propane heaters are definitely less expensive to run than electric heaters, natural gas heaters typically cost approximately half as much to operate as propane heaters. Of course, prior to purchasing a natural gas heater for your swimming pool, it's important to make sure that natural gas is supplied to your property. If it is not, propane heaters are still an excellent and cost-effective option for keeping your pool warm.

There are many different available models of propane and natural gas heaters for swimming pools. When comparing and evaluating different units, there are a couple of different factors that you should look for. First of all, the specifications for each heating unit will include a BTU rating. BTUs, or British Thermal Units, are used to express the amount of energy that the heater requires to raise the water temperature of your swimming pool by one degree Fahrenheit. BTU ratings can fall within a wide range, and gas pool heaters with higher BTU ratings will heat swimming pools faster. Not surprisingly, models with higher BTU ratings will also be more expensive to purchase. The second factor to consider is their efficiency rating. A swimming pool gas heater with an efficiency rating of 85%, for example, wastes 15% of the energy required to operate it. Obviously, units with a higher efficiency rating waste less energy and are therefore more cost effective and more environmentally friendly. While the majority of propane and natural gas heaters will have an efficiency rating that falls somewhere between 80% and 85%, there are models available with efficiency ratings as high as 95%.

There are gas heaters for swimming pools available that can be installed either outdoors or in a pool house. While some models can be installed in either location, others are designed specifically for indoors or specifically for outdoors. If you'd prefer to have your gas pool heater installed outdoors, it's important to make sure that the unit you choose is weather resistant so it will withstand ice, rain and snow during the winter months. This will protect your heater and help to ensure that it will last for many years to come.

Swimming pool gas heaters will have one of two ignition systems. These heaters use either a pilot light or an electronic ignition system. The latter type of ignition system is the most common and is often preferable because it does not require a continuous pilot light which can be a waste of energy. The type of ignition system that you choose will be based upon personal preference but, as already mentioned, electric ignition systems are more common.

Whether you prefer to have a propane or natural gas heater for your swimming pool, either type will provide you with high performance, efficiency and cost savings. Gas heaters are easy to install and typically require very little maintenance so you can enjoy worry-free and effective pool heating. With a swimming pool gas heater working for you, you can dive into your private pool sooner and enjoy its comfortable warmth and refreshing qualities to the fullest extent.

Swimming Pool (R-Rated Version) $8.5 Rated: RSynopsis: Filmmaker Francois Ozon, contemporary French cinema's master of eroticism, outdoes himself with this sultry thriller, a Hitchcockian exercise bound up in guilt, panic, and deceit, and additionally laced with overt sexuality. It provides a great leading role for the charming Charlotte Rampling, here playing a celebrated English mystery writer offered the loan of a French villa by her publisher (Charles Dance). The tired, repressed author is annoyed when her privacy is shattered by the unexpected arrival of her host's daughter (Ludivine Sagnier), a voluptuous little sexpot who brings men to the villa for sexual adventures and even seduces one of the older woman's potential paramours. Up to this point the film is little more than tawdry melodrama, but Ozon takes a sharp left turn by having Rampling's character commit an uncharacteristic act that she spends the rest of the movie attempting to conceal. The storytelling is unusually facile (for Ozon, anyway), although the pacing is a bit slow by Hollywood standards. Ultimately it's Rampling's audacious performance that distinguishes Swimming Pool, although she's ably supported by the fetching Sagnier, a swift-rising starlet and favorite of the director. If you're in the mood for a sophisticated, engrossing tale of suspense, look no further. François Ozon's psychological thriller Swimming Pool stars Charlotte Rampling as a mystery writer. When Sarah (Rampling) is offered the use of her publisher's vacation home, she accepts the offer. The conservative, repressed Sarah clashes with the house's other inhabitant, Julie (Ludivine Sagnier), the uninhibited daughter of the publisher. Julie's promiscuous sex life intrigues Sarah and starts to lead to the thawing of the emotional deep-freeze between the two. The death of one of Julie's nightly assignations complicates their lives. Swimming Pool was screened in competition at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival.
