Just had a new solar controller 3-way valve and actuator installed. I've been running my solar for about a week with the temp set at 85. Obviously it won't heat to 85 right away but I haven't noticed a temp increase from 65 the entire week. Temps have been around 70 for the high and 50 low. I'm questioning the installation because the pool guy that installed the valve didn't seem as sure as I wanted him to be about how to set the actuator on the valve. I guess there's different adjustments to allow more or less water to the solar. Here is a pic of it running with the pump on and the solar diverting the valve on towards the solar. Is it in the correct position? I called the guy back who installed it and said I wasn't heating and didn't get a call back. Go figure. I'm wondering if he has it set to run half solar and half back the the pool then I wouldn't get much through the solar panels because they are on the roof and it would be harder for the pump to fight the additional head. Anyone have experience that could help a guy out? Man I love this forum. I feel so confident with my new pool. All thanks to this place! Appreciate you all
