F. Initial use

Once the solar heater is assembled and the hoses are connected to the filter pump and
the pool, open the water supply and ensure that water is flowing through the hose. Then
turn on the filter system. Air bubbles will rise from the inlet nozzle in the pool. This
happens as the air is expelled from the solar heater. If this continues for more than 2-3
minutes, check the tightness of the connections in your system.

Please note:

We recommend that you cover your pool overnight to avoid loss of heat.

G.Trouble shooting

Problem

Cause / Solution

The pool does not warm up.

Make sure that water is flowing

through the hoses.

Has it been sunny enough?
Insure the maximum amount of

sunshine and increase the running
time of the filter pump.

Cover your pool overnight to

avoid loss of heat.

It is possible that you may need

several solar heaters.

No bubbles appear after the
equipment has been attached to
the pump.

Check the filter system and

ensure that water from the pool is
flowing through the filter pump, then

through the solar heater and
through the connector hose back to
the pool.

Air bubbles come out of the pool
return after the pump has been
turned on.

Check the connector hoses for

any damage.

Check that the hose clamps have

been properly tightened.

Water draining out of the system

Check the seals in the system of

hoses.

Check the hose clamps to insure

they are tight enough.

Check the connector hoses for

any cracks.
