ABSTRACT:
A system for economically storing solar energy in the form of heated water. The system includes an above ground swimming pool in conjunction with a solar collector whereby the water of the pool is heated and stored therein until needed for use. In one form of the invention, the solar collector comprises a solar cover overlying or floating on the water in the pool. The cover is provided with an inlet and outlet through which the pool water is circulated and heated by the solar energy penetrating the cover. In another form the solar collector comprises a remotely disposed collector comprising a covered box having therein a plurality of channels connected in liquid flow with the pool water.
