Solar Heating for Swimming Pools

Solar Heating for Swimming Pools
Suncell panels (solar heat absorber / solar plate heat exchanger) have been specifically developed for swimming pool heating and conform to BS 6785; the British Standard for solar heating systems relating to swimming pools.
Suncell is an ideal low-temperature solar application which does not necessitate a more expensive glazed and insulated style of solar panel. Suncell panels are highly efficient for this type of application, operating on a high flow rate principle.
The Suncell panels comprises a polypropylene collector plate with header pipes welded to each end, mounted in an Aluminium frame. The use of a specially formulated grade of polypropylene ensures a long life and complete freedom from corrosion by pool water – even from sea water. No maintenance except draining for winter frost protection is required. A five-year guarantee is offered subject to published conditions.
The aluminium frame which surrounds the polypropylene matrix enables easy attachment of the panel to a sloping roof of support frame. The header pipes are linked using hose Connectors simply secured by jubilee clips.
