Hi,

I accidently bought one (1) 12 ft SolarPoolSupply pannel that has a 2 inch header. My existing plumbing is 1.5 in. Will using 1.5 to 2 inch adapters cause any issues?

Not being a fluid dyn guy I'm imagining that since I have one pannel the water rate thru the pannel would slow and therefore heat accumulate more heat

I am also mounting it on my South facing fence sideways, manifolds on the left and right side of the panel (not top and bottom). Not being a fluid dyn guy I'm imagining that

My pump is 1 hp. and the lift is going to be 6 feet. The company said to
 
Welcome to TFP :)

As long as the input is on the bottom and the out is on the top it will be just fine... The 1.5 to 2 inch and back to 1.5 inch will be no problem at all.. Your 1hp if a single speed should also be just fine.. :)
