This class provides a clear roadmap for integrating solar into your business, and using it to create happier customers, stronger differentiation, and new revenue opportunities. Today’s pool customers want more from their backyards: longer swim seasons, lower operating costs, and better overall value from their pool investment. At the same time, contractors are looking for ways to stand out in a competitive market, increase project revenue, and offer solutions that deliver lasting customer satisfaction. This session is designed to help pool builders, service companies, and other contractors confidently guide customers toward solar pool heating as a practical, proven solution. Attendees will learn how solar pool heating systems work, when they make sense, and how to position them as a valuable enhancement that helps homeowners enjoy warmer pools with dramatically lower heating costs. The course will cover the fundamentals of system sizing, design, installation, plumbing configurations, controls, and collector placement, along with real-world installation best practices and common mistakes to avoid. Participants will also learn how solar pool heating compares with gas heaters and heat pumps in terms of operating costs, performance, and long-term customer value. Beyond the technical side, the session focuses on helping contractors grow their businesses. Attendees will gain practical sales strategies for introducing solar pool heating during the sales process, identifying ideal projects, overcoming customer objections, and increasing profitability while delivering a better ownership experience for their clients.
