HOW TO DERTERMINIE THE RIGHT POWER RATING OF
YOUR VAL THERM POOL HEATER
The following factors will influence the power needed for your pool heater: Pool
dimension, average depth, wind exposure, period of utilization, ground
composition, weather, etc...
With normal weather conditions as in our regions, we will be able to determine
the power needed for your pool heater, based on empirical method or
mathematical formulas.
EMPIRICAL METHOD
Our experience shows that according to your utilization period, the power for
your Heater should be as follow:
•
4 months utilization: 1.0 kw per 4500 litres
(1000 imperial gallons)
•
5 months utilization: 1.5 kw per 4500 litres
(1000 imperial gallons)
•
6 months utilization: 2.5 kw per 4500 litres
(1000 imperial gallons)
_______________________________________________________
4500 liters = 1000 imperial gallons
