Hi All. Thanks again for all your past help! Anyway I'm about to start a new pool project, installing 8 4x10 aqua therm panels I picked up on Craigslist. I've been studying g this forum and the web and have a few questions/concerns that hopefully someone can help with.
I'll be running my piping down a slight hill before it goes up to the roof. I'll have about a 5-6 ft drop from where my pump/pool is, then about. 60 ft run to the house, then up to the roof which is another 25 ft or so. Will I have issues with the panels draining? Will the pressure be enough when the panels aren't bei g used to push water up that hill back into the system? I was p,anni g on putting a t in athte lowest pt for winterizing. My pump is a jandy plus hp 2hp. Any thought is this is enough pump? When we built the pool, I asked the builder to rough out for solar and he did. I attached a pic but do I need another check valve between the pump and the 3 way?
Thanks for your help.
