Solar Panel Heater Questions

[cleancloths]

Your estimate is way high. I recently bought a pair of 2'x20' panels on E-bay, the delivered price was $169. That included almost all the fittings and a diverter valve. I bought another $30 or so of 1.5" pvc pipe and fittings so my total cost was about $200 for 4x20.

To heat your pool - probably not - but every BTU you add is a plus. My pool is 20 by 40 IG - and I just look at this as extra heat that the heatpump won't have to produce.

I have not run the heatpump at all since bringing the pool up from 44 degrees to about 74 degrees last month. Today the pool is 83.

Do you know the name of the seller? The cheapest I'm finding on ebay is around $600 with shipping. Maybe I could email your seller and find out if he still has more, or maybe he has an ebay store I can order it from.

Thanks!

Neelypools on e-bay. Its listed as being for above ground pools, but what they actually sell is for inground.
