TOP-OF-THE-LINE SOLAR HEATER IS FREE TO OPERATE!
Manufactured by the premier company in the solar business (they have installed over 125,000 solar systems), these panels have been efficiently heating swimming pools since 1972. Solar Bear's surface is fully whetted by pool water insuring the most efficient panel available. Extra large 2" headers do not slow down your pool's circulation and insure excellent solar heat transfer to your pool's water. Smaller 1-1/2" headers can reduce your pool's circulation and cause solar heating to be compromised.
Solar Bear systems are comprised of a single extra-large 4'x20' collector with no couplings or connectors. The system is made of U.V. stabilized polyethylene that is very tough and will last many seasons under direct sunlight. The systems come complete with an integral bypass valve, so you can turn them on and off as needed. Also included are two 6-ft. hoses and four clamps to hook the system up to your filtration system. Solar Bear panels can be mounted on the ground, on a rack, or a nearby roof. Complete installation and user's manuals are included. 10-Year Warranty. Put solar to work in your pool and swim in a warmer pool without the huge expense of heating it.
Note: For panels to heat optimally, they must receive unobstructed sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Our pool is 16 x 32 x 4 ft. Would we need two 4 x 20 panels to heat it? We live in South Dakota and would like to extend swimming into May and September.

Hello Deb - The goal is to have around 50% of your pool surface area in solar panel coverage. Your pool has roughly 500 square feet of surface area. Each panel is 80 square feet. Three panels would give you 240 square feet. The 3 panel NS7253 kit is what we would recommend.
