Is Solar heating economical?

Owning a SunStar system means drastically reducing or even eliminating expensive pool heating utility bills. Year after year, the savings continue while you extend your swimming season. SunStar solar pool heating is the most economical way to heat your pool. Zero operating costs, virtually no maintenance and the longest and most comprehensive warranty ensures the savings will continue for decades to come.

How does it work?

The SunStar system uses the sun's energy to heat your pool. The sun's heat is transferred into your pool by circulating pool water through the patented SunStar solar panel. In most cases, the pool's existing pump is used to circulate the pool water through the SunStar panels. The water is continually circulated through the solar panels until the pool has attained the desired temperature.

Is it hard to Maintain?

Maintenance of solar pool-heating systems is minimal. Solar collectors are not affected by corrosive pool chemicals and contain no moving parts to break down. The systems are pre-engineered and can be sized for any pool by simply adding additional solar panels to obtain an adequate solar collector area.

Were does the system go?

SunStar solar collectors can be mounted on roofs or any area near the pool that provides the proper exposure, orientation and tilt toward the sun. Ideally, SunStar solar collectors should face south. However, an orientation up to 45 degrees east or west of due south will not significantly decrease performance as long as shading is avoided. SunStar systems can also be installed on the ground or on racks.

Does it damage my roof?

SunStar's individual tube design eliminates competitors’ cumbersome and unattractive straps, which can damage roof surfaces. Instead, SunStar's solar collectors are affixed with Mounting Pads, which minimizes or eliminates roof penetrations. Individual tubes enable your roof to "breathe," which prevents moisture from being trapped under the collector. Tubes expand and contract independently so cracks from wear and tear are eliminated.

What type of Warranty is offered?

A 12 year full, lifetime limited warranty gives you protection and peace of mind long after typical pool heater warranties expire.

How does it affect the environment?

Solar pool heating is clean, non-polluting and environmentally safe. Other heating methods consume non-renewable fossil fuels and pollute the environment.

Is it safe?

Solar pool heating uses no high temperature appliances and requires no on-site storage of volatile fuels.
