INYO's solar heating system is a high quality polypropylene panel system available in 4'x10' panel equipped with 2" headers. Due to shipping and handling constraints, Piping for the system is to be purchased locally. To determine the number of panels needed for an operation, you must first calculate the surface area of your pool. Next, you would then purchase panels for 50-60 % of the pool surface area. For Example: A 400 sq. ft. surface area pool would use 6 - 4 x 10 solar collectors for a total panel area of 240 sq. ft.
Please Note: One (1) System Kit is required for EACH complete solar panel system.
How the system works...
INYO's solar panels are generally mounted on one's roof however, they are also capable of being attached to a ground rack. Using the pool pump, water is circulated through solar panels to heat your water. Pool water is heated in the high performance solar panels and returned to the pool through your existing piping.
On average how much can you save using water solar panels for your pool?

Hi Craig. I searched for data regarding your question and came up with two articles that shed some light on cost savings. The first is from our own blog and is straight forward with the cost saving potential. The second is not associated with us but here's a link to it if you're into more facts and figures.

Is there anything that can be used to patch a pin-hole leak in the solar panel?

Good Afternoon Verne Larson, Unfortunately, We do not currently have any how to guides in this area. I found in a quick search there are a few videos online (youtube.com) that might assist you in this question. If you have any other questions feel free too ask.

My pool area is 288 sq ft. So I only need 4 4x10 panels. Is that correct? What would be the benefits of having more than 4 panels? If I put in 6 or 7 panels, would my pool be kept at a warmer temperature?
