A SunHeater(TM) solar pool heating system can raise the temperature of your pool water by up to 10 F (6 C). or more. It is lightweight, durable and easy to install. Water simply flows through the SunHeater's many tubes via your existing pool pump where it is heated by the sun and returned to your pool. The system can be installed on the roof of your house, shed, or garage, mounted to a rack (optional mounting kit available), or simply placed on the ground. Get the SunHeater(TM) solar pool heating system, and save money on fuel and electricity bills, extend your swimming season by weeks, and get more enjoyment from your pool than ever before. Systems are available to suit all sizes of aboveground and inground pools.

Installations
Remove the collector from the box and allow the material to relax in the sun (30 minutes to an hour). Do not lay the collector on the grass - it can burn the lawn underneath. Allow at least one foot around the solar system for brackets and piping. Roof obstructions like vents should be taken into consideration when laying out collectors. With a roof vent up to 3” in diameter, the collectors can be placed on either side of the vent.
Determine the position of the collector. The top mounting bracket will be located at each slot along the length of the collector. The collector should slope slightly toward the end caps to drain (winterization). Locate the bottom mounting brackets directly below each top bracket.
Drill 1/8” pilot holes for all brackets. Lag screws should be long enough to reach the subroof under the shingles. Inject a generous amount of silicone sealant into the holes and onto the surrounding roof surface. Mount the bracket to the roof as shown with the bracket centered in the slot. Inject additional silicone over screw head area.
ROOF INSTALLATIONS: It is suggested that you use rigid PVC pipe for roof installations.
Strap is provided in the proper lengths to span the collectors vertically. Start by tying the strap to the top of the bracket and run the strap to the bracket below it and tie to the bottom brack- et. Do not add additional mounting hardware - the collector must “float” on the brackets to expand and contract.
Fence mounting installations are an option if space is a problem. The collector may not heat as effectively when mounted vertically, especially early in the year, when the sun is right overhead, but will still heat your pool.
