With the ECO SAVER™ Solar Pool Heaters you can extended your summer which means more fun for the kids and more relaxation for you.
Save the environment and save money too! The ECO SAVER™ Solar Pool Heating System works when your pump is running. No additional electricity is required! No gas or propane, no pollution! Using your existing filter system, water circulates through the ECO SAVER™ solar panel, the water is heated by the sun and returns to the pool through the filter system, raising your pool's temperature up to 15 degrees.

Proper Sizing of an ecoSAVER System:
1. The number of ecoSAVER solar collector panels required will vary depending on many variables including: the size of the pool, the number of sunny days, and the average air temperature. See chart below.
2. On cloudy or rainy days water circulation through the ecoSAVER panels may actually cool water. If you run your filter at these times, you may purchase the optional Diverter Valve Kit with your system or purchase separately. Installing a Diverter Valve will allow water to bypass the panels and return directly to the pool.
3. A solar blanket and reel system must be used for optimal results. Failure to properly use a solar blanket will diminish heat gain and temperature retention, especially at night. Please cover the pool at night and when not in use.

Location of Eco Saver System:
- For best results the ecoSAVER solar heating system must be installed in an area that receives direct sunlight for at least 6 hour a day. This should be in the middle of the day when temperatures are the hottest.
- The panels may be placed on the ground, on a rack, or on the roof of a building (i.e. shed, garage, or house). The panels should face SOUTH to capture the maximum amount of sunlight. Do not face panels away from the sun, such as on a north-facing roof.
- If the panel(s) are installed on the ground, do not place in a high traffic area. Do not walk on the panels as it may damage them and it will void the warranty.
- Make sure there are no sharp objects where the panels will lie. Sharp objects can damage the panels and cause leaks.
- If the system is mounted on a rack, the rack should be placed at an incline of 30 – 45 º. The rack should not be located where a child can climb on it to gain access to the pool.
- An optional Roof Mounting Kit is required for proper installation on a roof or rack.
- With the proper pump size, the system may be located up to 30’ from the filter system and on the roof of a 1-story structure.
