SunHeater S120U Universal Sun Heater, 2 Feet by 20-Feet

Not made a great difference bit disappointed

Parfait pour une petite piscine de 15 pi.

Produkt wie beschrieben,Installation einfach,für einen 12m3-Pool ausreichend.

Excelente producto, fácil de instalar e incremento como 5 grados la temperatura de mi alberca de 12000 litros. Tendré que comprar otro para buscar 10 grados. 🤪

Before I begin, I must give props to the review from "Cody and Melanie" dated Mary 27, 2020. I recommend reading that one and then this one. It saved me so much time and effort!We have a round 15' x 48" Intex pool. I followed the guidelines and only needed 1 panel for this size.I decided to use 2 separate pumps. One for regular filtering. The other for the solar panel. I thought about setting up a bypass valve and all that but decided having a separate system would be more convenient to turn off the heated water if the water temp got too high or if there was no sun. Both of my pumps are the 1000 GPH so they already had 1 1/4" hoses, which this uses. (But you can adapt this to 1 1/2" with separate adapters).Here's what I did:1. Box was almost falling apart when it was delivered but luckily nothing was damaged or missing. Noticed little slits in the rolled up panel and got a little worried. Found out they are actually there to help install onto something like the roof or wood.2. Unrolled it in the sun so the heat would help it uncurl easier.3. Removed the black protective caps.4. Used teflon tape (included) to wrap the threads before putting on the white PVC end caps. (2)5. Used teflon tape to wrap the other ends before putting on the PVC 1 1/4" elbow connector. (2 )6. Took off o ring gaskets from T connector that I came with my pump that I did not use. I tried to skip this step mentioned by "Cody and Melanie" but had to go back because the connection was leaking.7. Put o ring gasket on elbow connector, metal clamp (included), and then hose.8. Used flat head to gently push up o ring gasket into slot of hose, then tightened the metal clamp. This is the part that stopped the leaking. (2)9. Made sure air was out of filter. Turned on.As long as your panel is not damaged and in the sun, there is no reason this should not work as there are no moving parts... just your pump pushing water through. Don't forget, you may need more than 1 panel depending on your pool size.I have ordered 24' pump hoses so I can install this on my roof to get it out of the way.Picture 1 is my regular filter pump set up.Picture 2 is my solar heater pump set up (and my fat cat, Mia).Picture 3 shows how much space the solar heater takes up.I cannot review the durability, but I am very excited and happy about this purchase.

This was a replacement for one I damaged in storage. I installed this one very carefully when I plumbed it. When I pressured it up with flow, there was a leak. The leak was very close to the end and appeared to be in a tube dented in manufacture. There were other channels that were dented but not leaking. I fixed it with super glue and gorilla tape. I will be looking for better quality if this one does not survive winter storage. This item is very fragile!
