The Poolsolar solar collectors should be positioned facing the sun as much as possible for a maximum efficiency, ideally 30 degrees (above horizontal) facing South.
A maximum working pressure should not be above 1.5 BAR (22psi). A solar heat retention cover must be applied to the swimming pool overnight and when the pool is not in use to prevent heat loss. If installing Poolsolar on a ground surface i.e. for small above ground or splasher type pools please be aware that Poolsolar is not designed for heavy foot traffic.
Make sure that all pipework to and from the solar collector can be drained for the winter period. We would recommend the use of a time clock to automatically turn off the filtration system at night or bypass the solar system. Alternatively, an automatic control system can be installed.
Please take sufficient safety precautions before working on a roof. |
