The
sunCOIL
you just purchased for your aboveground pool is simple to install and effortless to
operate once connected.
The installation instructions included in this manual are based on a few
assumptions:
1) you have an existing above ground pool that is completely set up and filled with water,
2) your above ground pool is equipped with a pump-operated water filtering system, and
3) you have the necessary hoses needed to feed water in and out of your pool and filter system.
！
WARNING
GENERAL INFORMATION
These assumptions are necessary as the
sunCOIL
(s)
, once installed, will be completely dependent upon
your pool’s filter pump to push water in and through the heater’s solar coils.
How It Works
When properly installed, the
sunCOIL
will be connected to your filter and your pool by two hose
connections: One hose will feed cold, filtered pool water from your
filter system
into one port of the
sunCOIL
.The other hose will
return
sun
-
warmed water from the other port of the
sunCOIL
to your pool via
the pool return
fitting
in your pool.
As cold water is fed into the
sunCOIL
, it travels through the solar coils where it is heated by the sun before it is
delivered back into your swimming pool.
Know Your Pool
Before you begin installation it is a good idea to know certain specifications of your pool:
How big is your pool?
How many gallons does it hold?
What size hose does it use? (i.e.1¼” dia
or
1
½” dia)
(USE THE BLACK HOSE)
How big is your Filter Pump?
sunCOIL
can be used on Filter Pumps from 1/
4
(.25) H.P up to 1 1/2 (1.50) H.P only.
Do not use
sunCOIL
on pumps over 1 1/2 (1.50) H.P.
sunCOIL
Location
Your
sunCOIL
needs to be located on a hard level surface.
You will need to position the heater
lower than the pool's water level and at a safe distance away from the pool.
Your
sunCOIL
must be positioned for maximum exposure to the sun.
