Stop with the Reel, and the
Blanket! Solar Sun Rings are
Simple!
The Solar Sun Ring is a passive
solar swimming pool heating
device made from two sheets of
heavyweight U.V. resistant
vinyl.
The upper clear layer
holds insulating air
and focuses sunlight on the blue
colored lower layer. You will
really be amazed at the
thickness and durability of
Solar Sun Rings.
The blue
layer absorbs about 50% of the
sunlight and converts it to
heat. The balance of the
sunlight is allowed to pass
through for deep water heating.
Solar Sun Rings are patented,
and have been independently
tested to show a heat transfer
of up to 21,000 BTU's
How Do
Solar Sun Rings Work?
At night
the contained air acts as an
insulating blanket to retain
heat gained during daylight.
Solar Sun Rings are equipped
with six magnets which connect
to each other easily. The
strength of the magnets will
permit single position removal
but will easily separate to
prevent entrapment in accidental
falls.
Solar Sun
Rings were designed to be
compatible with automatic pool
cleaners. In the event the
suction hose catches on a ring,
the ring will separate from the
raft to allow the pool cleaner
to continue. Neither water nor
pool chemicals
can evaporate through the Solar
Sun Rings two layers of
heavyweight vinyl. You will save
water and chemicals about equal
to the percentage of the surface
covered. Once the water in your
pool has reached adequate
temperature, Solar Sun Rings may
be turned over to conserve water
by limiting evaporation without
significantly heating the water.
How Many Solar Sun Rings Do I
Need?
We
recommend enough Solar Sun Rings
be purchased to cover 75% of your pools surface, ignoring
the small triangles between the
rings. Each of our solar sun
rings is 5 feet wide. See the CHART on the right --> to
see how many solar sun rings
your pool needs.
For example, a 16x32 rectangle
will use about 16 Solar Sun
Rings, an 18' Round would use
about 8 or less.
How Do I
Clean My Solar Sun Rings?
Solar Sun
Rings can be easily cleaned with
a sponge and mild detergent
solution. Made from heavy vinyl
- a Solar Sun Ring will last for
years and years, unlike
traditional polyethylene plastic
solar blankets that will break
down from sun and chlorine after
a few pool seasons. Because they
stack so easily, solar sun rings
are easier to store in the off
season.
Solar Sun
Rings Help Your Pool Stay Clean
 Your pool
requires some direct sunlight
and open water to stay healthy.
The
open water
around the raft of Solar Sun
Rings and the triangle caused by
the convergence of three Solar
Sun Rings is by design. These
open areas allow your pool to
receive some direct sunlight.
This sunlight will greatly
reduce the incidence of mustard
algae.
