When Giovanna and Joe were planning their new home in Adelaide’s inner eastern suburbs, the decision to install a pool wasn’t unanimous at first. “I was the one that probably didn’t really want the pool,” Giovanna admits with a laugh. “But having said that, it’s lovely.”
Today, their sophisticated, hybrid pool heating system, designed by Anthony Sebastiani of Adelaide Pool Heating, allows them to enjoy comfortable 26°C water temperatures even during evening swims – making their pool a year-round family gathering spot.
Making the Most of Pool Investment Through Smart Hybrid Heating
For Joe and Giovanna, maximising their pool’s usability was crucial. “We wanted to try and maximise the amount of time that we could actually use the pool,” explains Giovanna. “The kids want to be able to use it quite a fair amount of time because once the summer holidays are over, they’re back at school.”
Their solution? A hybrid heating system that combines:
- Solar heating for cost-effective primary warming
- Heat pump backup for cloudy days and evening swimming
- An innovative underground pool cover system
The Hidden Hero: Underground Pool Cover Innovation
One of the most impressive features of their pool setup is the concealed pool cover system. “Speaking to Anthony before it all happened was great because when he suggested the pool blanket, we actually have the box built in,” Giovanna shares. This thoughtful design element eliminates the typical trip hazards and eyesores associated with above-ground pool cover storage.
Joe adds, “It’s easy in, easy out. The gearing’s really easy… I thought it was going to be a bit of a chore, like starting a lawnmower, but it isn’t.”
Smart Technology Meets Energy Efficiency
With existing solar panels on their home, the family was already energy-conscious. Their pool heating system builds on this foundation:
- Primary solar heating system for cost-effective warming
- Heat pump backup for consistent temperature control
- Smart app monitoring for real-time temperature management
“Anthony guided me through the numbers because I was pretty stern on the numbers because of my background,” Joe explains. “He told me the benefits of doing the solar heating and the heat pump and how we time it to make sure that we’re efficient at both ends.”
Year-Round Swimming Success
The results speak for themselves. The family now enjoys:
- Comfortable 26°C water temperatures at night
- Extended swimming season well beyond summer
- Ability to host family gatherings regardless of season
They even hosted Canadian relatives in September who enjoyed comfortable swimming thanks to the reliable heating system.
Expert Guidance Makes the Difference
For families considering pool heating in Adelaide, Joe’s advice is straightforward: “Work out what you want, and if it’s extended periods of the pool you want, speak to Anthony… He’ll guide you along.”
