This isn't a young brand making big promises. Zane systems are documented still running after 25–32 years of Australian sun — longevity you can actually point to.

Our story
A first for Australian pools — and a lot of firsts since.
When Zane began in 1974, heating a backyard pool with the sun was a new idea in Australia. Half a century later, the approach we pioneered is still keeping pools warm — and we've kept innovating the whole way.

Zane dealers carry solar, heat pumps, gas, covers and automation — so you're guided to the system that suits your pool, climate and budget, not whatever's on a sales quota.

30 local dealer locations design, install and service your system in person — with the resources of a national brand standing behind them.
Backed by Waterco
Zane is part of Waterco Ltd, an ASX-listed Australian company — so the business behind your warranty will still be here decades from now.
