Hello everyone,
I finally updated my signature with my pool info. I am beginning the process of adding thermal solar panels and will be going with 8 4x12 panels, probably Aquatherm but maybe Heliocol depending on the price differential. My intention is to upgrade to a Pentair solar touch controller, does this then replace my existing analog control panel for the pump, booster pump and breaker box? And do I need to upgrade my pump to a Pentair VS right away or can I use the whisperflow pump in the interim? Is the other option, manual diversion to the array? And if so, can I install the automatic valve and control that manual and then upgrade the panel to the solar touch and the pump to the VS?
