Set automatic control unit for desired water temperature.
Sensor detects change in solar heat and tells the FAFCO automatic control unit when there is energy available to work efficiently.

Your existing pool pump sends cold water from the pool through the solar collectors.
The FAFCO solar panels transfer the sun's heat to the pool water as it travels through the panels.

Warm, solar heated water flows back into the pool using your existing pool returns. This process continues until the pool reaches the desired temperature.

Reliability: FAFCO is the world's largest manufacturer of solar pool heating panels, with over 125,000 systems and 1,000,000 solar panels installed worldwide. That's nearly twice as many as our closest competitor. All FAFCO panels are made of durable, lightweight, ultraviolet-resistant, polyolefin material blended with proprietary additives at our plant under exacting, quality-control standards.

Heat Pump Pool Heating Options

An alternative to solar pool heating that is also far more cost effective than gas or electric resistance units is a dedicated heat pump. FAFCO now offers a new high efficiency unit for energy conscious consumers.

These units are essentially air conditioners that run in reverse. Instead of removing the heat from inside a house and dumping it outside, heat is removed and then released to the water from the pool as it passes by the Freon gas in the evaporator coil. When sizing a heat pump pool heater it is important to provide a unit that is large enough to heat the pool during the typical 8-9 hour run time for the pool pump. If this run time is also during the daylight hours the efficiency of the unit is greatly enhanced.

REVOLUTION ®... FAFCO's revolutionary technology thoroughly mixes the water through a subtle combination of angle, depth and frequency of "dimples" in a fully wetted surface. Pool water is directed into a revolving spiral flow, roto-washing the top and bottom surfaces of the panel, with all levels exposed to the sun's warmth. Water evenly and efficiently moves through the 2" header and the tubes, which are significantly more in number than competitors' panels.

The result of this innovative engineering is the most effective solar pool heating system in the world - and a warmer, more comfortable pool temperature for you. The Revolution ® Solar Panel is backed by FAFCO's 15-Year Worry-Free Warranty and the peace of mind that it's designed and built by the best in the business.

SunSaver™...FAFCO's SunSaver™ System is the high-performance solar system that can heat your pool far beyond the few warm pool days of summer. The SunSaver™ Solar Panel is backed by FAFCO's 12-Year Worry-Free Warranty and the peace of mind that it's designed and built by the best in the business.

SoloTube™...FAFCO's SoloTube™ System is a high-performance, economy solar system that can heat your pool for a lower initial investment. The SoloTube™ Solar Panel is backed by FAFCO's 10-Year Limited Warranty and the peace of mind that it's designed and built by the best in the business.

SunWorks Solar also provides additional equipment and installation techniques for almost any system configuration.
