3. Heater – Pool Connections

NOTE: If your pool is plumbed with heavy-duty, reinforced flex hose, contact your local pool retailer for an available GAME 

adapter kit (item 4553).

 A) Pools with 1

¼

” or 1

½

“ Diameter Unthreaded Hoses

Connect the hose adapter into the heater port. Secure with the collar. Attach the hose (from the filter) and secure with a hose clamp. 

Repeat on the other side of the heater, connecting the hose to the pool. See figure 2.

OR
B)  Pools with 2

¼

” Diameter Threaded Hoses

Connect the hose adapter into the heater port. Secure with the collar. Attach the adapter for either Intex (use flat gasket as shown if 

needed) or Bestway to the heater port. Be sure the o-ring is in the adapter before attaching. Attach the hose (from the filter) and secure 

with a hose clamp. Repeat on the other side of the heater, connecting the hose to the pool. See figure 3. 

NOTE: If solar heater needs to be further from the filter than the hoses allow, you may need to purchase a longer hose with the 

1½” diameter openings. A 1½”-1½” coupler is needed to allow you to connect an additional hose if necessary (not included). 

In this case make certain you have two hose clamps to secure the hoses to the coupler. If the hoses are too wide to fit the hose 

connector, usevtt the 1¼”-1½” tube reducer on the hose connector and continue. 

CAUTION: ENSURE ALL HOSE CONNECTIONS ARE TIGHT AND THE HOSES ARE NOT KINKED OR BENT AT SEVERE ANGLES. IF 

THE HOSES ARE LEAKING, CHECK TO MAKE SURE ALL OF THE PARTS THAT HAVE O-RINGS HAVE THEM ATTACHED AND ARE 

SCREWED ON TIGHTLY. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN HOSE CLAMPS (35 IN/LB MAX TORQUE)

4.  Initial Operation

Once the solar heater has been assembled and the hoses are connected to the filter pump and pool return, unblock the flow of water 

into the pool return hose and turn on the pump and filter system. Bubbles will shoot out of the return nozzle into the pool initially 

while air is pushed out of the solar heater. If this persists for longer than 2 or 3 minutes, check for and repair any leaks in the hoses  

or connections.

FOR BEST RESULTS: To reduce heat loss, use a pool cover on your pool overnight, run your filter system during daylight hours 

and cover the solar heater at night (if running the system).
