System Sizing Guarantee
Sizing systems is difficult involving a lot of factors which we could get wrong. Hence in addition to the above
Warranties EcoOnline offers a System Sizing Guarantee as follows. If we sized your system (or you use our online
calculator)
and you took our advice and you aren’t happy with
the system
’
s performance (heat output), then you can
purchase
up to 25% more
panels originally supplied by EcoOnline
up to two years
after your original purchase and
we will ship the items

A Word on Transparent Bubble Pool Covers
EcoOnline recently carried out a full pool heating loading technical study including performance data on transparent
bubble pool covers. We found that while pool covers produce a moderate heating effect by themselves, they
produced a much larger pool temperature boost when used in conjunction with a solar pool heater due to
synergistic effects. So
much so that if you’re running a solar pool heater and not using a pool cover you are missing
out on surprisingly large temperature gains - see link below for the summaries:

Customer please note:
WARRANTY IS VOID
if collectors are installed:
without a
vacuum release valve
on the return line,
or a
non-return valve
on the solar pump outlet (with 6mm drain hole in flap),
or if panels are run at pressures
other than a maximum of ± 1psi (6kPa)
,
or if the collectors are installed well
below the water level (max 1.5m)
.
Why?
Such installations will expose the collectors to strong fatiguing positive/negative
pressures. These situations will have detrimental effects on the collectors which will limit
lifetimes and can also result in significant shrinkage of the collectors which would put
strain on roof attachments.
