User questions & answers
Question: | What size are the hose connections |
Answer: | It can hook up to 1.25 intex or 1.5 hose. You need gaskets though. |
Question: | How would this work for heating my 40 gal hot water heater |
Answer: | I'm presently heating 60 gallons. Keep in mind it only heats as long as is on the unit. You will need a pump to circulate the water and dual shut off valves to isolate the water while it is heating. I heat a jacuzzi with mine and in the peak of summer I got over 120° incoming water. Good luck. |
Question: | Can you connect several of them together easily |
Answer: | Yes, it has a connection hose and clamps with each one to tie one, two or more together. Hint: make sure you silicone the caps and threaded fittings. I did even with the Teflon Tape to insure no leaks. Work great. |
Question: | Doe it work with a sand filter |
Answer: | Yes it works with a sand filter. It also works with salt water systems. I installed mine downstream from the filter on the inlet line to the pool and before the chlorine generator. I would not install it upstream from the pump and filter because you don't want any debris that gets past the skimmer to get into the heater to potentially cause blockages. It doesn't have to be before the chlorine generator either, that's just how mine worked out. |
Question: | What is included |
Answer: | Included are mounts for concrete (looks difficult) and mount for ladder, that was a snap. Almost returned, test button not too loud, but my wife set it off packaging it, service level is adequate for alarm. Not insane, but you can hear it inside. |
Question: | do you think it is sensitive enough for a 15 pound dog? Also, do you think it would work with the pool thermal blanket on |
Answer: | As to the 15 pound dog, yes if properly set and tested. The sensitivity changes according to how high or low from the water surface the sensor is. As to a thermal blanket, I have no idea. |
Question: | Can this be used in an above ground pool |
Answer: | Don't see why not, it attached to our ladder to our inground pool but should work for you as long as you have something similar to attach it to. |
Question: | does this unit require additional hardware etc for this unit to work or is it all included? also what type of electricity is required to the unit |
Answer: | It's battery powered and it comes with all hardware. It screws to the pool deck, in my case I had to have a masonry drill bit |
Question: | Can this detect motion from a dog that weighs 10 pounds |
Answer: | Depends on how close to the alarm set dog falls in, if it doesn’t cause a wave enough to move the floating cone then it won’t sound the alarm |
Question: | How come this doesn’t work in polls below the ground |
Answer: | It just doesn’t work. Don’t buy us unless you have an Indoor pool because a slight breeze will sound the alarm |
Question: | Not to many details provided on amazon...is this alarm simple to turn off when maintaining/ cleaning pool? Also, any indication when battery is dead |
Answer: | No |
Question: | is there an alarm that hooks to ladder |
Answer: | No |
Question: | Does this work with an above-ground pool liner? Would the alarm go off at any movement of the liner |
Answer: | Ours is in an above-ground pool. You have to place it so it’s not in line with the filter output. It works well. |
Question: | Can this be used in in ground pools |
Answer: | No this is designed for above ground pools only. Try the Pooleye PE23 |
Question: | Will this alert you to a 6 pound dog falling in |
Answer: | Sadly I doubt it would- I believe it had to be like 19-25 pounds to sound the alarm. Can you install a gate? This is scary for you… I wish Good luck with your dog!! |
Question: | How does it connect to the alarm in the house |
Answer: | It connects through wifi to another transmitter you charge in house. It's really loud regardless. You won't miss the alarm. |
Question: | does it have to be tethered ,or can it float free |
Answer: | it comes with a long tether that can be easily shortened without cutting it, but you could let it float around without it. If it is free floating be sure it is alarming properly. Its alarm sensitivity is also very adjustable. Note: rain will also likely set it off. |
Question: | Will it work if a small, 8-pound dog falls in |
Answer: | I believe it will work. Our cats, 10# and 11# both fell in and it went off. Also, my husband forgot it was in and just dangled his feet and it went off. We have been really pleased with it. |
Question: | What is included |
Answer: | Included are mounts for concrete (looks difficult) and mount for ladder, that was a snap. Almost returned, test button not too loud, but my wife set it off packaging it, service level is adequate for alarm. Not insane, but you can hear it inside. |

Sensitivity Adustment
Turning the black flotation base clockwise or counterclockwise raises or lowers the sensing ring with respect to the water. stops. Do not force it. This is the most sensitive position and the position that was used to pass ASTM testing. Moving the float from this position will no longer meet ASTM requirements The closer the sensing ring is to the water, the more sensitive the alarm. Turn the black flotation base gently clockwise until it.
Sensitivity Marks
The “Sensitivity Marks” can be used as a general indicator for the sensitivity position. Should the sensitivity need to be adjusted start making adjustments by turning the float only a ¼ turn at a time. Test the alarm after each adjustment. We do not recommend turning the float out more than three full turns.
Alarm Placement for pools 20x40 ft or smaller
One pool alarm can be used for all pool types. This includes aboveground, in-ground, inflatable and soft side pools.
Alarm Placement for pools larger then 20x40 ft
It is recommended that more than one alarm should be used in pools larger than 20x40 ft.
RECEIVER
Your receiver works with the pool alarm allowing you to monitor your pool from within your house. When the floating alarm is activated it sends a signal to activate the receiver.
Transmission Modes
The receiver has two modes of operation: Serial Number mode (SN mode) and ID mode. When the receiver is in SN mode it will accept the transmission of any Pool Patrol transmitter (this is the default setting). The serial number is common to all transmitters. When the receiver is in ID mode it will accept the serial number plus the ID number of the transmission. The ID number is unique to each transmitter.
RECEIVER PLACEMENT
It is best to place the receiver next to a window or wood door adjacent to the pool with-in 200 feet from the transmitter. Do not place the receiver near steel walls, cabinets, on or alongside an electrical appliance, such as a computer, or on a metal surface as this may affect signal reception. The pool alarm will not transmit its signal through the ground.

Product description
Manufactured by the premier company in the solar business (they have installed over 125000 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-inch headers do not slow down your pool's circulation and ensure excellent solar heat transfer to your pool's water. Smaller 1-1/2-inch 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-feet by 20-feet 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. 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.
- Package includes 4' x 20' Wide Solar Collector with 1-1/2" barb connections, 12 mounting caps, 12 mounting bases, 6 mounting straps, 1 valve handle and 20 rubber tube plugs
- Pool pump circulates pool water through the heated solar collector
- Optimal heating with unobstructed sunlight between 10am and 4pm. Performs most effectively when tilted 10 to 30 degrees to the South
- Mount on the ground, on a rack, or nearby roof
- Additional materials required: 1-1/2" I.D. flexible hose and ground spikes (ground installation)
User questions & answers
Question: | Will this work on 17000 gallon pool |
Answer: | I believe so- we have a 15 foot by 30 foot oval pool and I think that is 15,000 or 17,000 gallons of water. We have had our solar cover since last summer and we are very happy with it. It is a good quality cover. |
Question: | Is this kit for above-ground or in-ground pools? Ours is in-ground |
Answer: | It works for both in-ground and above-ground pools. You connect it to the pool pump so you will need a diversion valve. |
Question: | Has anybody use this for an inground pool? And how did it work |
Answer: | I have not used this for an inground pool, but the pool type should not matter. As water is moves through the panel, it picks up a little heat on each pass. The amount of heat is determined by the number of panels. The only difference between inground and above ground pools that would be an issue is heat loss, which would depend on your environment and pool materials. |
Question: | How many gallons of water does the 4 ft x 20 ft panel itself hold |
Answer: | Don't know but it isn't much as heating tubes so small. Never seems to be too much water that drains out when I put away for winter |

User questions & answers
Question: | Shipping dimensions 20x40 12 mil and weight |
Answer: | I think he/she is asking what are the dimensions and weight of the box that the cover is shipped in. I would also like to know the answer. |
Question: | What is this material made of? Is it safe to use in a pond |
Answer: | It will be safe for at least a year. I have had the cover for exactly 13 months and the cover is starting to fall apart and is leaving small blue bubble debris in my pool. If you have fish in the pond, I would be concerned that the debris could harm the fish if they tried to eat it. |
Question: | Is there a warranty on this solar cover |
Answer: | They claim there is but when we had an issue with all of the bubbles falling off and clogging our filter leading a brand new pump to burn out they claimed the bubbles separating from the cover isn’t under warranty! We had the cover 10 months and our pool pump was just about a year old...we had put in a new pool. DO NOT BUY THIS COVER |
Question: | Does any color work better than the other |
Answer: | Hands down clear is the better cover for solar gain. Yhe Department of Energy say the following. "Outdoor pools gain heat from the sun, absorbing 75%–85% of the solar energy striking the pool surface. This is an important contribution to the pool's heating needs. A pool cover will decrease the solar gain contribution to some extent, depending on what type you use. A transparent bubble cover may reduce pool solar energy absorption by 5%–15%. A completely opaque cover will reduce it by 20%–40%. You need to consider this when selecting a pool cover." |

User questions & answers
Question: | have a kidney shape pool underground, which one should i get |
Answer: | I have a round, 24 foot wide and 5 foot tall above ground pool. The solar blanket probably warmed our pool up 5° - 7° and kept the water from cooling off too much at night. With an in-ground pool, you probably don't have to worry as much about the nighttime cooling. The cover also reduced bugs and leaves. I've been happy with it. |
Question: | I've never purchased a pool cover before. If my pool is 12 ft (round), do I buy a 12 ft. cover or do I need to purchase a larger cover |
Answer: | The cover is left on the surface of the water. So exact would be ok. However, I have a 24 foot round above ground pool. I buy a 21 foot cover which allows it to ciculat around with the water flow and have room not to catch the ladder. It one gets the exact size they usually cut out for the ladder but don't let it circulate with the water. I found the cut out a bother with the water flow circulation and went with a smaller size which misses the steps. |
Question: | how do you get it on and off the pool |
Answer: | I have tired reels and a couple other things, but the best is a simple Solar Saddle system. They are PBV pipes that attach to the side of the pool. Simply pull the cover over and lay it in the saddles. Here is a link. https://www.amazon.com/Solar-Saddle-Pool-Cover-Holder/dp/B002WKK6QY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1501514553&sr=8-1&keywords=solar+saddle+pool+cover+holder |
Question: | Can anyone confirm that this bubbles on this cover are rounded, as the picture shows? I bought one with flat bubbles and not as good as the round one |
Answer: | Yes rounded bubblesHeats up water really well |

User questions & answers
Question: | Does this prevent water from coming inside the jacuzzi |
Answer: | It floats on the water so it is not going to keep water out like a elastic cover would. |
Question: | may i use 10 feet solar cover for 8 feet intex swim pool, because i cant find the 8 feet cover ... thanks |
Answer: | Well the solar covers float. I’m sure if it hangs off a bit on the sides it will still work. Just a guess though. |
Question: | Can this cover be cut down in size |
Answer: | Yes I think you should be able to cut it down. This item does make the water warm and too hot for us so after 2 days we stopped using it. this is a solar heater not a cover. |
Question: | Could this be used as a pool pad as well |
Answer: | This cover is made for 12' pools but the actual cover dimensions are approximately 10'. The cover has air filled pockets or bubbles that may deflate with constant pressure since it is designed to rest on top of the water. Hope this helps! |

User questions & answers
Question: | I have a 16 foot diameter pool. Would the 15 foot cover fit, or can the 18 foot cover be cut to size |
Answer: | I have the 18 ft cover and an Intex pool, the cover touches all the sides with a couple of inches left over. I never trimmed mine, as it finds it way down naturally and lays pretty flat. I am not sure if a 15 ft cover would be as generous as this one, if it were, I would say you are probably safe. I have a lot of bunching up in areas that aren't laying flat. Ironically, that is where the water is the warmest. Just know, personally, I think trimming it would be a pain. It is a very large piece of plastic and even standing in the pool, as you cut, you might end up with those little bubble pieces. |
Question: | I live in Texas. My issue is not keeping the water warm. This has to do will it help prevent sunlight breakdown of the chlorine |
Answer: | This does help. If you have any other questions you can also call 800-950-2210. FamilyPoolFun |
Question: | Would anyone suggest getting a bigger one than needed so it hangs over the pool as to keep the pool cleaner |
Answer: | No, unless you are the sole cover operator, cover cleaner, cover puter back oner. I have a salt water system and skimmer also run a sweeper once a week. The dirt, grass and salt chips on top of the cover are minimal. I wanted maximum coverage to heat and hold in warmth. Excess air trapped under to escape, not inflate. The surface tension holds the cover firmly on the water even in high winds, you may lose that with extra cover. I think most covers are cut from straight stock and glued, mine was 6" to 12" to large and egg shaped when I received it. They work great. |
Question: | i have an 18x42or 48in pool would this cover fit |
Answer: | This a solar cover and therefore floats on top of the pool so the depth of the pool doesn't matter. I purchased the 18 foot solar cover for my 15 foot foot round pool so i would have bit of overlay on the edges. I then secure in place with pool sand bags. I purchased a |

User questions & answers
Question: | What is the maximum amount of gallons that this pool heater will warm up? Also, by how many degrees |
Answer: | 1 box of the S421P panels will heat up to 31ft round aboveground pool or 18'x36' oval pool. It can heat it up to as much as 15 degrees. SPQ Brands |
Question: | can this be used to heat a [4 person] hot tub to a comfortably HOT temperature |
Answer: | No. It only increases the temperature 6-10 degrees. If the water is hot then it may retain the heat & increase a little but would not be good as a main source of heat. |
Question: | Did you use one or two panels |
Answer: | We used 2 panels |
Question: | what all is included in the purchase? hoses? clamps |
Answer: | I purchased the kit with 2 solar panels. It comes with pvc caps for one end of the panels. A rubber hose to connect the two panels together on the other end, as well as hose clamps. 2 pvc fittings for input and output flow to the panels. These are made to connect the filter hose to the panels. (although we bought new fittings to use all pvc pipe) It doesn't have any mounting hardware or rack to mount the panels to. So don't expect to have everything you will need. The picture on this ad shows more than what you will get. But performance of this heater has been very satisfying |

User questions & answers
Question: | Can you provide a link to the manual so we can download it in advance of the product arrival so that we can prepare the connecting hoses |
Answer: | I do not have the manuals but here is the answer to connecting the hoses. The connection is for 1 1/2 hoses. Do NOT use the hoses that come with the dome no matter what. |
Question: | Can you connect to and above ground intel pool with a sand filter |
Answer: | Yes |
Question: | Can these be installed on a garage roof, above the water level |
Answer: | The hoses that come with it aren't long enough, and your filter pump probably isn't strong enough to pump the water up to roof level. IIRC, it does recommend not putting it higher than the water level. |

User questions & answers
Question: | I have a 10,000 above ground pool would I need more than one of these |
Answer: | I used it on a 10 foot diameter, 30 inch deep Intex above ground pool, one of those with the blow-up ring around the top. It would heat it up a little on a warm sunny day. My pool is probably 1,000 gallons. So yes you would need more than one. If you can control the flow of water through the panel with a valve then you could regulate it to get maximum heat by slowing down the flow. |
Question: | Is having it installed for an extra fee an option? I'm a senior citizen, and not confident to hook this up by myself |
Answer: | As long as you can bend over for a short time, you can handle it! I'm 54 (almost senior), but have a spine injury with a great deal of nerve damage. I was able to install alone. Just make sure you have the suggested lube to get the tubing into the unit, or you won't be able to get it in. That makes it a breeze! Good luck! |
Question: | Will this work on my dough boy pool |
Answer: | It should. Depends on how much sun etc your yard gets. We have an above ground pool (18 ft around) and normally temps are in the high 60s ( like 68-70) when we open the pool and we freeze when we get in or can't swim at all till mid June. We installed one of these and it's been a big help with raising temps. our yard is semi sunny and our temps have jumped up to 83 in our pool. |
Question: | I have 2 conected ro a 1.5hp motor and am not getting much if any heat thru the 2 heaters at all i have it setup just as the directions show |
Answer: | How long do you run them? We are in Wyoming. Warm days, cool nights. We run ours from 9 am until about 5 pm. The heater is in the sun the entire time. Our pool, 18 foot round, 4 foot deep, gets to 100 in July. Now with cooler nights and daytime temps, it is at about 90. |
