Solar Pool Pumping is one of the most cost-effective and logical uses of solar electricity.
Using a few solar panels, panel mounting, and controller, the DC pool pump will have
enough electricity to run all day using free, clean electricity from the sun. This
is good news, because, swimming pools are usually the second largest and most expensive
electrical load (after air conditioning) on your electric bill. These systems completely
remove that cost.
ETA Engineering sells everything you need in an all-in-one kit to run your pool entirely
off solar electricity.
Everything you need to pump a 16,000 to 25,000 gallon pool without plugging it in
(except mounting structure).
A typical pool pump (1.5 HP A/C) uses 2000 watts. If the pump is run 8 hours a day,
that is a total of 480kWh per month! A 3000 watt grid-tie system on a home in Arizona
will produce the same amount of electricity, but a pool pumping kit is a MUCH more
economical solution. At 4 hours a day, the typical pump uses 240kWh per month, as
much as a 1500 watt grid-tie system produces. With this load permanently removed
from your home, the savings add up quickly!
- The DC pool pump is more efficient than the standard AC pool pump already attached
to a power grid tied pool pump. A 3/4 HP DC pump is generally capable of replacing
a 1 to 1.5 HP AC motor.
- Summertime swimming season requires more pumping, and naturally, with more hours
of sunlight, your pool pump puts in the work needed to keep your pool clean.
- ETA designs the system for optimal efficiency through the choice of the pump and
motor combination combined with the photovoltaic array. We assemble many sizes of
pool pumps, and offer several brands and sizes or solar panels and solar modules.
Pumping systems are available from 1/2 HP to 1 HP.
- The EMPT (Electronic Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller works like an automatic
transmission, and maintains maximum output from your solar panels (modules).
- If you still need more pumping power, or need to run your pump at night, simply turn
on the pump already installed on your pool for an extra boost.
- Optional tracker mounting positions your solar panels (modules) so they follow the
sun and are always absorbing the maximum amount of solar energy available.

Solar photovoltaic (solar electric) modules produce electricity which is used directly
by a high-efficiency DC pump motor custom coupled to a standard swimming pool pump.
The most common size system has a 3/4 HP motor and 720 Watts (peak) of solar power.
This system is generally capable of replacing a 1 to 1.5 HP AC motor (depending
on service factor).
We offer many options. We have several products and can make many combinations to
customize a system to match your needs. Below are samples of fairly common solar
pool pumping solutions. Call us today for specific details and pricing.
