Question:
Should I use a solar pool cover with my solar system?
Answer:
A solar pool cover prevents evaporation and heat loss, especially at night when the outside temperature is cooler. If you do not use one,
there is a good chance that the heat you added during the day will be lost at night.
Question:
Can above ground pool solar panels be used to heat my in-ground pool?
Answer:
SunGrabber
TM
does not recommend using above ground solar panels on in-ground pools.
Questions:
Can I add on more panels if I want my pool warmer?

Question:
Can I use my SunGrabber
TM
with a gas heater or heat pump?
Answer:
If you have a gas heater or heat pump installed on your pool currently, simply install your SunGrabber
TM
between the filter and the gas
heater/heat pump. You will notice a reduction in your monthly energy bill!
Questions:
How should I time my automatic pool cleaner?
Answer:
Set your pool cleaner to turn on after the solar system. This prevents air from entering and possibly damaging pool-cleaning equipment
during startup of your solar system.
Question:
I left my solar panel full of water through the winter and now some of the tubes are leaking. Can it be repaired?
Answer:
Yes
