Choosing the Right Location

Whether you need roof or ground installation, you need to ensure that the solar panels are strategically positioned to capture the maximum sunlight. Southern-facing orientation (azimuth) is essential to optimize sun exposure and minimize shading throughout the day to improve system performance. The angle of inclination has a significant role, and a general rule of thumb is to match it with the summer equinox for maximum pool heating.

Connecting Pool Collectors –

If you want efficient pool heating, you should install multiple collectors in series, up to a maximum of four. Larger pool heating systems may benefit from a parallel connection. Two parallel rows of four solar flat plate collectors, for example, can outperform a single row of eight in series. When connecting these pool collectors, you can use the reverse return technique to ensure that equal pressure drops and flows across every panel.

Using Automatic Solar Air Vent -

THERMAX Extreme water heating kit comes with an automatic solar air vent. Proper air removal is essential to ensure optimal system performance. Install the vent at the highest point in your solar pool water heating system to facilitate eliminating air effectively.

Considering Roof Mounting Kit -

The roof mount kit is specifically designed for parallel mounting, sitting 3-4 inches off the roof to prevent damage directly. Featuring X & Y axis mounting brackets, this mounting kit provides flexible positioning, ensuring secure installation by accommodating trusses. The kit design facilitates easy roof shingle changes without compromising the system's integrity.

Choosing Ground Mount Stands -

Ground mount installations provide an alternative to roof mounting that eliminates the requirement for roof work. These stands can be placed in any optimal location without restricting the existing roof direction. Plates on the feet secure the collectors to concrete blocks that prevent damage from heavy winds. The standard 45-degree angle ensures efficient system performance, and the ground mount design allows easy cleaning without climbing onto a roof.
