4. Make sure that your hoses are all connected the correct way and that all the collars have
been tightened. Unblock the inlet and outlet of your pool.
5. Turn on your pool pump. Check for any leaks. If any of the threaded fittings leak, remove the
fitting and apply more Teflon. If any of the hoses leak at the connection, loosen the collar
and push the hose over the fitting and re-tighten the metal collar. You will see air bubbles
coming from the pool inlet. This is normal and will stop once the air inside the panels has
been purged.
Note
Without a diverter, your solar heating system is always ON. At night, your solar panels
will cool your swimming pool. We recommend you close your pump at night to avoid
this or purchase a diverter kit (Art. 1572)

Operation and Maintenance

Turn on your solar heating system whenever the panel(s) are in sunlight. You will know the panel is
working by touching it, it should feel cool to the touch. That means the heat from the sun is being
transferred to the water inside the panel. Turn off your solar heating system at night and whenever
it is raining. Failing to do so will cool your pool. It is recommended to close your solar heating
system whenever you do a backwash or whenever you manually vacuum your swimming pool. It is
also recommended to use a solar blanket (Thermo Cover/Summer Cover). This will help keep more
of the heat generated by the solar panel in your pool.

Winterizing

System(s) on ground
At the end of the season, your solar panels must be drained of all water.
• After your pool has been closed, disconnect the hoses from the panel.
• Manipulate the panel until the water is completely out.
• Roll the panel up.
• Store the panel in a heated place until next season.
System(s) mounted on a roof or a rack
At the end of the season, your solar panels must be drained of all water.
• After your pool has been closed, turn your by-pass valve in such a way to allow the water
from your panels to drain. Wait half an hour for panels to drain.
• Unscrew the Vacuum Relief Valve or the Threaded cap at the top of the solar system.
• Unscrew the Threaded cap at the bottom of the solar system and make sure all the water
is drained out of the system. All your plumbing should be installed in such a way to allow
full drainage of system. If you are not sure that all panels have been drained properly:
Disconnect each panel, raise them up and make sure that no water is present. Once
completely drained, the panels can be left on the roof or rack. The SunPirate panels are
