What People Say About Pool Heating Guys Sydney
“We had solar pool heating installed before summer and the difference has been incredible. The team assessed our roof properly, explained the expected temperature gain honestly, and the installation was clean and fully sealed. We’re swimming from October right through to April now.”
★★★★★
– James K., Manly
“Our old pool heat pump had stopped working properly, so we called Pool Heating Guys Sydney for a replacement. They sized the new unit correctly for our pool, and it runs so much quieter and more efficiently than the old one. Great communication from quote to install.”
★★★★★
– Andrew L., Parramatta
“We wanted a spa heater that could get us to temperature fast without waiting around, and that’s exactly what we got. The installer was upfront about running costs and had it fully commissioned the same day. Couldn’t be happier with the service.”

The North Shore Pool Heating Specialists
Pool Heating Guys Sydney work right across the North Shore on family homes, bushland blocks, strata pools and schools, from Artarmon, Willoughby and Chatswood up through Roseville, Lindfield, Killara and Pymble to Turramurra, Wahroonga and Hornsby.
Shade is the first thing we look at here. The upper North Shore keeps its tree canopy, and a pool at St Ives or Warrawee can lose direct sun by three in the afternoon even in January. Solar can still be the right call, but only when the roof gets the hours to back it.
Older houses bring their own quirks. Steep tile roofs, pools built well before the current standards, switchboards that were never meant to carry a heat pump, and plant bays tucked down the side of a battleaxe block.
We quote pool heating North Shore homes after seeing the site, at a fixed price, and install solar pool heating, pool heat pumps and gas pool and spa heaters that suit the property rather than the sales sheet.
POOL HEATING QUESTIONS FROM NORTH SHORE POOL OWNERS
Frequently Asked Questions
Does solar pool heating work on a shaded North Shore block?
Sometimes, and it depends entirely on the roof rather than the pool. If the roof gets solid direct sun through the middle of the day we can size a solar system that lifts the pool properly. If the canopy at St Ives, Wahroonga or Turramurra takes the roof out by early afternoon, we will say so and quote a heat pump instead.
Are pool heat pumps the better option up here?
On heavily treed blocks, usually yes. Pool heat pumps North Shore owners install pull heat from the air, so shade does not affect them, and they hold the pool at a set temperature through spring and autumn. We size to pool volume and check the switchboard, which on older North Shore homes is often the deciding factor.
Can you install a gas pool heater or gas spa heater?
Yes. Our licensed gas fitters install a gas pool heater North Shore homes can rely on, and a gas spa heater North Shore courtyards heat in under an hour. Gas gives you heat on demand, so it suits pools that get used in bursts rather than daily. We check the gas supply first. Plenty of older North Shore homes have a meter and line that were never intended to feed a pool heater, and that has to be sorted before anything is installed.
Which system suits my North Shore pool?
Shade, budget and how often you swim. Solar wins on running cost when the roof has the sun, a heat pump wins on a shaded block or when you want a set temperature, and gas wins when you need the pool warm tonight. We look at all three on site and tell you which one your block actually supports.
Do you repair pool heating you did not install?
Yes. Much of our North Shore work is repairs on other people’s systems, including plenty fitted 10 or 15 years ago. We diagnose the actual fault, quote the fix, and replace only what has failed. Perished solar tubing and controllers that have quietly given up are the two most common.
Do you handle strata, school and club pools?
Yes. We look after strata pools in the apartment blocks around Chatswood, Artarmon and Hornsby, plus school and club pools across the North Shore. Those pools run longer hours and carry more volume, so we size for the duty cycle and set up controls the site manager can operate.
How do I get a quote for pool heating North Shore wide?
Get in touch with your address and pool details and we will arrange a time to come and look. We quote solar pool heating, pool heat pumps and gas pool and spa heaters against your pool volume, your roof and your supply, at a fixed price. We do not quote solar on the North Shore without seeing the roof, there is too much shade variation.
What makes you different from a general pool company?
We do pool heating and nothing else. That means we see where systems get oversold, and on the North Shore that is usually solar put onto roofs that never had the sun to support it.
Which North Shore suburbs do you cover?
All of them, from Artarmon, Willoughby, Castlecrag and Chatswood up through Roseville, Lindfield, Killara, Pymble and St Ives to Turramurra, Warrawee, Wahroonga, Waitara, Asquith and Hornsby. The full list is further down this page.
How much does pool heating cost on the North Shore?
It depends on the system, your pool volume and the site. Solar has the lowest running cost, heat pumps sit in the middle, gas costs most per hour but heats fastest. Steep two storey tile roofs and switchboard upgrades on older homes are the two things that most often add to an install here. Quotes are fixed.
How long does installation take?
Most North Shore homes are done in a day. Add a day when a heat pump needs new circuit work from an older board, when the roof is steep or two storey, or when access down a battleaxe driveway means carrying gear in by hand.
Can I run solar and a heat pump together?
Yes, and it is a good fit for partly shaded blocks. Solar does the work when the sun reaches the roof, and the heat pump covers the overcast weeks and the shoulder months. Sized together, you get the running cost of solar most of the year with the reliability of a heat pump behind it.
When should I book for summer?
Late winter or early spring is the best window, since North Shore bookings fill from August. Booked in December? You still get the tail of summer and all of autumn out of it. We install year round.
Is the installation under warranty?
Yes. The gear comes with its manufacturer warranty and our own guarantee covers the workmanship. Worth knowing on the North Shore: leaf litter in a heat pump is the fastest way to void a claim, so an annual clean out is part of keeping cover.

Complete Pool Heating Services Across the North Shore
Solar Pool Heating
Solar pool heating North Shore homes install costs almost nothing to run once the collectors are up, and the trick here is honest shade assessment. We map how much direct sun your roof gets through the day, allow for neighbouring canopy, then size the collector area to your pool volume. If the roof cannot support it we will tell you rather than sell it.
Pool Heat Pumps
Pool heat pumps North Shore owners choose are often the better answer on a shaded bushland block, since they do not care how much sun the roof gets. We size to pool volume, check whether an older switchboard can carry the load, and site the unit where its fan noise will not carry to the neighbours.
Gas Pool & Spa Heaters
A gas pool heater North Shore families run heats a pool in hours, which suits homes that entertain rather than swim daily. A gas spa heater North Shore homes fit will have a spa ready in under an hour. The gas supply gets checked first, and on homes this age it is often the part that needs upgrading.
Pool Heating Repair
Pool heating North Shore repairs are half our week here. Heater stopped firing, or a heat pump running far longer than it should? We service and fix solar, heat pump and gas systems from Artarmon through to Hornsby, no matter who put them in. Aged solar tubing on steep tile roofs, leaf-blocked units and failed controllers make up most of what we see.
Why Shade Decides The System On The North Shore
A pool at Killara and a pool at Artarmon can need completely different heating. One sits under 20 metres of blue gum, the other has open north facing roof and full afternoon sun.
So we start with the roof. Usable area, pitch, aspect and how many hours of direct sun it really gets across a day, not how it looks from the street at noon.
Where the sun is there, solar pool heating North Shore homes install is the cheapest system to run by a wide margin. Where the canopy wins, a correctly sized heat pump does the job without asking you to cut down trees you like.
Older homes need an electrical check too. Plenty of North Shore switchboards are at capacity already, and finding that out before the quote is better than finding it out on install day.
Get pool heating North Shore conditions actually suit and the pool gets used through spring and autumn instead of sitting cold.
