1.  This information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of the 
Company's management, all adjustments necessary for a fair 
statement of results for the periods presented have been 
included.  The results for the period ended June 30, 1998 are not 
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire 
year.  These financial statements, notes and analyses should be 
read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual financial 
statements for the year ended December 31, 1997, included in its 
1997 Annual Report to Shareholders.

2.  Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted 
average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding 
during the periods presented.  (See Note 6)

3.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, 
determined on a last in, first out (LIFO) basis, and consist of 
the following.

4.  The Company has a line of credit agreement with Silicon Valley 
Bank, which line of credit allows the Company to borrow the 
lesser of $1,000,000 or an amount determined by a formula applied 
to accounts receivable.  Unused borrowing capacity was $1,000,000 
at June 30, 1998.  Amounts borrowed bear interest at prime rate 
plus 1.5% per annum and are secured by substantially all the 
assets of the Company.  This line of credit expires on March 31, 
1998.

5.	The company records its deferred taxes on a tax jurisdiction 
basis and, with the adoption of FAS No. 109 in 1993, classified 
those net amounts as current or non-current based on the balance 
sheet classifications.

Deferred tax assets are comprised of the following at:

</TABLE>

Diluted earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing net 
income (loss), adjusted for the dilutive after-tax effect of the 
interest expense associated with the convertible debt, by the sum 
of the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding 
and shares issuable upon exercise of dilutive stock options and 
warrants, and upon conversion of convertible debt during each 
year.

Item 2

                              FAFCO, Inc.
              MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
           FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                              (Unaudited)

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 increased by 15.8 % 
from $3,291,400 in 1997 to $3,810,700          in 1998. Net sales 
increased by 5.2 % from $6,187,300 in the first half of 1997 to 
$6,510,200 in the corresponding period in 1998.  These increases 
were due mainly to increased unit sales of the Company's  
IceStorT and aboveground  pool heating products.

Cost of goods sold increased from $1,771,600 (53.8% of net sales) 
in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to $2,222,100 (58.3% of net 
sales) in the corresponding period in 1998.  For the six months 
ended June 30 cost of sales increased from $3,416,200 (55.2% of 
net sales) in 1997 to $3,985,500 (61.2% of net sales)               
in 1998. These increases in cost of goods sold were due primarily 
to lower sales of the higher margin pool panel products along 
with higher sales of the lower margin IceStorT  products.

Marketing and selling expenses remained relatively stable at 
$492,400 and $962,200 for the quarter and six month period ended 
June 30, 1997, respectively, compared to $466,900 and $972,500 in 
the same periods in 1998.  

Marketing and selling expenses declined as a percentage of net 
sales from 15.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 and 15.6% for 
the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 12.3 % and 14.9 % of net sales 
for the corresponding periods in 1998. 

General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30 
decreased from $522,400 (15.9% of net sales) in 1997 to $408,600 
(10.7% of net sales) in 1998 and for the six month period ended 
June 30 decreased from $863,200 (14.0% of net sales) in 1997 to 
$753,400 (11.6 % of net sales) in 1998.  These decreases were due 
mainly to decreased personnel costs.

Research and development expenses for the quarter ended June 30 
decreased from $55,200 (1.7% of net sales) in 1997 to $50,900 
(1.3 % of net sales) in 1998 and for the six month period ended 
June 30 decreased from $110,200 (1.8% of net sales) in 1997 to 
$96,400 (1.5 % of net sales) in 1998. These decreases were due 
mainly to a decrease in engineering project costs.

Net interest expense was relatively stable in absolute dollars at 
$37,100 and $34,300 in the quarter ended June 30, 1997 and 1998, 
respectively, while decreasing as a percentage of net sales from 
1.1% in 1997 to 1998. Net interest expense for the six month period 
ended June 30 decreased from at $80,000 (1.3% of net sales) in 1997 
to $69,400 (1.1% of net sales) in 1998 due primarily to lower 
average daily borrowing in 1998 at lower interest rates than 
1997.

Other income (net) included $5,700 in refunds of prior year's 
insurance premiums in the first half of 1998 compared with 
$15,800 during the first half of 1997.  Other income (net) also 
included $100,000 in license fees during the first half of 1997; 
there were no such fees during the corresponding period in 1998.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 1998, the Registrant's inventories had decreased to 
$934,800 from $1,082,900 at December 31,1997.  This decrease was 
due mainly to the fact that the December,1997 level was 
abnormally high due to the buildup of inventories for a specific 
order that shipped in 1998.

At June 30, 1997, the Registrant's accounts payable and other 
accrued expenses had increased to  $1,094,600 from $850,900 at 
December 31, 1997.  This increase is primarily due to the 
increased volume of business during the first half of 1998 and 
especially during the quarter ended June 30, 1998.






Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION - Item 2 (continued)

At June 30, 1998, the Company's accounts receivable had increased 
to $2,867,000 from $1,833,400 at December 31, 1997 due mainly to 
the effect of increased sales levels of all of the Company's  
products along with a large overdue foreign receivable which has 
since been collected.

At June 30, 1998, the Company's current ratio was 2.53 to 1 
compared with 2.42 to 1 at December 31, 1997.  The Registrant had 
working capital of $2,596,300 at June 30, 1998 compared with 
$2,006,800                at December 31, 1997.  Total assets 
exceeded total liabilities by $2,612,400 at June 30, 1998 
compared with $ 2,042,300 at December 31, 1997.

The Registrant believes that its cash flow from operations along 
with its available line of credit will be sufficient to support 
operations during the next twelve months.

Significant Accounting Policies - Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax 
consequences of temporary differences between the financial 
reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities.  See Note 5 of
