Or I piece together my own system, but my limited knowledge will get me into trouble!

Bump! The only option I've found to date is the Sun Ray system http://www.sunrayus.com/ but it's not easy to find prices. most of what I find are solar powered well pumps for remote locations.

I can't see the pictures. IS there a link?

You might be able to mount a solar heater on a patio cover for shade, making it dual use. Or on top of a tool shed if it's strong enough for the extra weight. It doesn't have to be on the roof. Just a place where it can get the best sun exposure. Seeing how the sun is so far south in the winter...

GASP!!!!! :shock: Looks like it's going to be closing time! I don't have that kind of money and can't get wife to agree to that kind of outlay when she still wants to travel or buy rental property. Not to mention she's already ****** that I spend a few hours a month working on it to keep it...

Re: HELP! Newbie-new pool owner-odball skimmer, missing part Bump! Any thoughts or ideas?

:lol: Been there many times All great advice everyone. Thanks for the info.

Hi all, I noticed a couple small leaks in the seams of my pipes going from the pump to the filter. It's a 2" line there, and 1.5" everywhere else, and it all looks a little weathered, like the sun gave it a nice UV treatment. I'm betting it's a few years old. My question is about PVC pipes...

Thanks. I haven't had the time to sit down and do the math to figure out my surface footage. It's a free form pool so I have 3 different semicircles and the avg depth to figure out. I'm betting I'm 10-11 ft deep in the deep end. All I know is the label in the add-on room says 20x30 Blue Haven...

A whole house system ROI is something around 5-7 years w/ subsidies, around 10 w/o. I have a municipal electric utility so they don't have a time-of use plan, or efficient pump rebates that I know of. I did find a DC pump but you need 4-6 panels to run it, plus the batteries and...

Hi all, I have a question. I see lots of good info on pumping at low speed, and how it's filtered better and more efficiant. seeing how this needs less power, and I live in the valley of the sun (Phoenix, AZ) what's the consensus on a solar powered filtering pump, and maybe a booster just for...

Thanks. I got it.

Looks like a start up opportunity! :party:

Any thoughts on brining this stateside?

This is going to take some extra fingers and toes isn't it! Looks like I have another project this weekend.
