We developed the HEATSIPHONALYSIS to ACCURATELY DETERMINE WHAT
SIZE HEAT SIPHON YOU NEED for your pool and HOW MUCH YOU WILL SAVE VERSUS GAS/OIL/PROPANE/ELECTRIC
Pool Heaters.
Even with weather variations our results have proven
to be within 10 to 15% of recorded pool heating costs on actual pools.
Using your Local fuel costs, weather data amount of shade hours
per day of pool blanket use, how warm you want to keep your pool - we take these
and many other factors into account to make sure your actual cost is accurate.
MONEY BACK SIZING GUARANTEE - Based on this analysis we guarantee
that the size we recommend will heat your pool as you specified or you can return
your Heat Siphon.
NOTICE: Your email address will be kept
strictly confidential and will not be released for any reason to anyone outside the
company without your specific written approval. We reserve the right to send you
HEAT SIPHON information only.

The following text and explanations are provided to help you if
you have any questions while filling out our HSA form. They are in order across from
each of the five sections where possible.
Pool Owner & Location
Make sure you FILL IN THE EMAIL ADDRESS if you want us to
email the results to you.
PLEASE SPECIFY YOUR LOCATION (ZIP CODE) - we need it for local weather data selection.
If you are requesting us to mail your analysis or a brochure-
PLEASE FILL IN YOUR FULL MAILING ADDRESS.
If it is different than your pool location then please call us .
If you live in a foreign (non-US) country please do not
fill out the US ZIP CODE OR STATE, but rather complete the bottom two lines below
the heading "for pools outside the USA only".
Pool Dealer
If you check the box "FIND A DEALER" we will provide the names of the closest
dealer in your area.
Although you may be able to install your Heat Siphon yourself
or use a contractor for installation, we would still like to know who built
your pool.
YOUR POOL DATA
This is the most important section (other than your contact info). Please give us as much information as you can about your pool or spa or combo system.
In the first section make sure you select one item in each box that applies to your system.
Please tell us if you have a heater what fuel it uses so we can
make sure the cost is accurate for the payback analysis and the operating cost comparison.
Desired Water Temp
The water temperature you desire is also important. The default 82F is what most pool owners use. Spas are typically 100 to 102 F.
The volume is not critical but we use together with your pool depth to double check your pool area and vice versa.
SURFACE AREA is CRITICAL
Because pool heat loss is directly proportional to the surface area of your pool NOT THE VOLUME, please make sure you are as accurate as can be in specifying the size of your pool.
If you need help with the math click on one of the two helper links below.
Wind is specified at the water surface and normal is 2.5 mph for a wind speed of 10 mph at 10 feet elevation (which is how most weather stations measure it).
Unless you are on a hilltop or in a windy unsheltered location use NORMAL-2.5mph.
Hours/Day Covered
It doesn't matter what type of cover you use, IT SAVES 50% OF YOUR POOL HEATING COST. It prevents the biggest source of heat loss - evaporation. For every gallon of water you replace in your pool you lose 8000 BTU's of heat.
Be realistic and specify overnight (12 hrs/day) cover use.
Very few people are diligent enough to "uncover only when swimming"
Pump Size/Runtime
We even calculate the extra electric cost of additional pump runtime if Heat Siphon needs to run longer than your pool pump timer setting. Default is 24hrs - change it if you use a time clock and don't forget to include the pump size (HP or Kw) A 1HP (120v) or 1.5HP (220v) usually runs on a 15 amp breaker, while a 2HP uses a 20 amp breaker. Larger sizes are rare on residential pools.
Open/Close Dates
Don't forget to pick the date you want to open and close your pool - for outdoor pools this is limited to average daily air temperatures above 50F to avoid icing problems (both you and the heat pump).
Local Fuel Costs
Please provide your local fuel cost.
Look at your bill if you don't know - divide the total amount by the number of Kilowatt-hours (KWH) of electricity for the cost per KWH.
For Natural Gas divide the bill total by the number of MCF (1000 cu ft) of natural gas used. A Therm is 100,000 btu's while an MCF is a million btu's
(10 therms),
OR just fill in the name of your
utility companies, and we'll do the rest.
Installed Heater Cost
Please provide the approximate
INSTALLED COST or total purchase price for each type of heater you
wish to compare in the fuel cost savings payback analysis. A graph
will be provided showing the number of seasons required to recover
the difference in cost. Heat Siphon is virtually ALWAYS the lowest
cost pool heating method.
