Using a hose clamp, secure the loose end of your existing
pool return hose to the outlet of the heater See Figure 1

” Diameter Threaded Hoses
For Pools that use 2¼” threaded hoses, contact GAME Customer Service at
1.888.339.2546 (press 135 at any time).
1 Attach the collared tube adapter with o-ring to the
central hose connector under the base Make sure
the o-ring is in the collared tube adapter prior to attachment (see Figure 1)
2 Screw your existing pool return hose onto the collared tube adapter Be sure to place the thick connector gasket between the
hose and the adapter for a tight seal
3) Solar Heater Placement
Choosing a position which receives maximum sun exposure, face the heater in the direction of the sun’s natural path
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.
IMPORTANT: For maximum product life and effectiveness, do not use when outside temperatures are
under 45°F or over 95°F.
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).
5. 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
NOTE: Be sure to place your pool cover on at night to prevent heat loss.
6. MAINTENANCE
The solar heater should not require servicing or maintenance other than winterizing Prior to the first frost, or at the end of your swim
season, the solar heater should be removed from its connections to the pool and stored in a frost free location
Winterizing
Drain all the water from the solar heater by disconnecting the tubes Store in a location protected from frost
CAUTION
Do NOT allow standing water inside the solar heater to freeze. Water expands as it freezes and can rupture the solar coils on the heater.
