Intex Solar Pool Heater Mat - Efficiently Raise Water Temperature by 3-5°C | Suitable for Above Ground Swimming Pools | Eco-Friendly & Cost-Effective Solution

Product Information

If you live in a warmer climate, we suggest getting a solar cover or blanket first and test it if it’ll be sufficient to heat your pool. This will help you determine the potential cost savings of investing in a more efficient type of collector, which may require fewer panels for the collector area needed to heat your pool. I am told by pool supply companies that any pool heater other than solar will not work as the pipes will melt. If you are residing in colder regions in the US, it’d be better if you’ll get a pool heater or heat pump and just use solar covers to keep the warmth of your pool.

Pool – 5 Best Ways To Do It How To Heat An Intex Pool – 5 Best Ways To Do It

Intex Solar Mat is an eco-friendly pool water heater for above ground swimming pools up to 30,280 litres capacity. Swimming Pool Solar Matting provides this solution and is easy to install and essentially maintenance free! This FibroPool pool heat pump can add consistent, reliable heating to any above-ground pooland has low noise, so it won’t bother you while you enjoy your time in your Intex pool.Designed to work with most Intex filter pumps, this heater is perfect for increasing your swimming session with warmer water, using environmentally friendly solar heating technology. Having a solar heating system installed to heat an Intex pool can be quite expensive to set up initially, but with no operating costs and tax incentives you can get for having one ( depends on your state), it can be all worth it. I don't plan to leave it out any longer than we're using the pool of course, and hope that with care it'll last a few years. EASY TO INSTALL – This pool solar heater uses your existing filtration system and has 4 end caps, 2 elbows for flex hose connection, 6 stainless steel hose clamps, 1 roll of Teflon tape, and rubber.

It works by utilizing your installed solar panels to transfer heat from the sun to your pool by letting your pool water pass through them. High efficiency solar collectors not only will reduce your annual operating costs, but may also require fewer square feet of collector area to heat the pool. TUBE ON WEB DESIGN – The tube-web-tube design allows the SunHeater to capture the most sun possible, maximizing square footage. This provides a payback of between 1 and 7 years, depending on your local fuel costs and available solar resource. If you have the valves fully open the water will pass through the mat much faster and not gain much heat.This Intex Solar Cover can reduce the evaporation by 95% and allows the air bubbles to transfer sun heat into the pool water efficiently. If it is important to you that the pool water stays at a constant temperature then solar heating alone is not for you. Each collector takes roughly about 15 minutes to assemble, though some may not be fans of assembling it themselves. Both the orientation and tilt of the collector will affect your solar pool heating system's performance.

Its prismatic design means that it can collect sunlight at all times of the day, and like the evacuated tube, works in cloudy climates too. might not seem very much to have to warm the water by but it if the ambient temperature is lower than 28C, and that is probably 95% of the time in a British summer, then you are constantly having to add heat to the water while nature is constantly trying to take it back. If you decide to go the route of setting it up, then you can check these solar panels by Smart Pool that’s designed to heat above ground pools efficiently. As with a solar water heating system, it is important to consider local building codes and regulations for solar water heating. Their solar heating system allows you to capture free heat from the sun’s rays to effectively raise your pool water temperature.

The best way to do this is usually with a heater and there are many types of heaters on the market today. Also, the minimum BTU for both models is 150,000 BTU which is more than enough to heat any mid-sized or large-sized Intex pool. In a nutshell, the Solar Matting is pre-fitted to PVC manifolds which are connected to each other (and must be plumbed directly to the swimming filtration plant).
