Hi Sheila,
Last week I contacted Solar Direct and was helped by Dan to size and select your Premium In ground Solar Heating System. Dan was extremely knowledgeable and my order was completed in just a few minutes.
I ordered (6) 12'x4' with a combo #4 heating control.
The entire order arrived at my door on Friday (12 March). With the help of one man, the system was installed in two days (a total of 13-hours work).
I was upgrading from a previous system which time and again failed (Fafco). To install the new system I had to enlarge my current panel bracket and add only 7-foot of new piping.
The controller was a bit tricky. And I say that as a well-seasoned electrical qualified person. I install sophisticated fire alarm and HVAC systems. There needs to be a simpler description for wiring the controller. None-the-less I got it right the first time and I'm amazed at how superior the panels are over my previous. My new set-up is 50 sqft larger yet my pressure drop is less than half what it was before. What a strain off my circulating pump.
I'm really impressed with the system and my neighbor is contemplating ordering a set as well.
Have a great summer, as I will in my nice Solar Direct heated pool.
Sincerely,
Vic Jones
