SOLAR POOL HEATERS
FOR ABOVE GROUND POOLS

Sunheater Solar Pool Heater Logo Smartpool Solar Pool Heater Logo
How Well Does Solar Pool Heating Work?
A properly sized and installed solar pool heating system will raise pool temperatures 10-15 degrees during the season. When it's cloudy or rainy, solar won't work as well (and you probably won't be swimming during those times), but your water will be back up to temperature after one or two warm days.

Do I Need A Special Pump?
If your pool pump is in good working condition, there shouldn't be any problem using your existing pump. A one HP pump will handle installations up to 30 feet away from the pool equipment and one story up. If the solar collectors are cool to the touch when the water is running through them on a warm day, you are getting enough flow.

Where Can I Put The Solar Collectors?
Anywhere you get full sun for at least six hours during the day. The longer the solar collectors are in full sun, the better they work. If you are mounting on an angle (like a roof or rack), the solar collectors should face in a southerly direction if possible.

What Additional Parts Will I Need To Complete My Installation?
You will need the correct amount of pipe or hose to connect the solar collectors to your pool equipment. For rooftop installations, we suggest you use rigid schedule 40 PVC pipe. You'll need PVC primer, glue and fittings. Glue and fittings are available where you buy your pipe. To mount on an angle (roof or rack) use kit number SPSK43.

How Many Solar Collectors Should I Use?
Follow the sizing charts shown for best results. If the sizing chart calls for more solar collectors than you have purchased, the results will not be as effective. For areas where the swimming season can be year round, add an additional solar collector to heat during the cooler months.

What About A Solar Blanket?
A solar blanket will hold the heat in the water at night, especially early and late in the season. Remember, your Sunheater solar pool heater will heat the water and a blanket will hold it in.
