How To Measure Your Pool Using Google Earth
Before installing a solar pool heating system, it’s important to know the square footage of your pool. This measurement helps determine how many solar panels are needed to heat your pool efficiently.
One of the easiest ways to estimate your pool’s surface area is by using Google Earth. In just a few minutes, you can measure your pool directly from satellite imagery without needing to measure it physically.
Follow the simple steps below to determine your pool’s square footage.
1. Find your pool using Google Earth:
2. Select the Measurement Tool:
3. Trace the waterline around your pool:
4. Record your pool's total square footage:
Once you know your pool’s surface area, you can select a cover size or determine the correct size solar pool heating system for efficient and consistent heating.
Next Step: Calculate the Right Solar System for Your Pool
Now that you know your pool’s square footage, the next step is determining how many solar panels are needed to heat your pool efficiently. Solar pool heating systems are sized based on pool surface area, climate, and desired temperature.
