The POOL SOLAR HEATING PANEL EPDM 2.5m x 1.2m is the ultimate eco-friendly solution for pool owners who want to extend their swimming season affordably and sustainably. Constructed from high-quality EPDM rubber, this solar panel is designed to withstand South Africa's harsh sun, chlorine, salt, and extreme weather conditions, delivering efficient heating that lasts 2030 years.
Unlike electric or gas heaters, this solar panel harnesses the free power of the sun. It connects seamlessly to your pool pump and circulation system, heating your pool water as it passes through the panels and returning it warmer, creating a consistent cycle of comfort. With proper installation and the use of a bubble cover, you can achieve optimal heating results without skyrocketing energy costs.
The system is easy to install, lightweight, and transportable. It can be rolled up for storage or easily carried onto the roof for installation. Each panel heats approximately 9,000L of water, so you can scale your system according to your pool size with simple multiplication.
With hail resistance, high repairability, and superior heat transfer properties, this EPDM solar heating panel is built to outperform and outlast other options. It's a smart, long-term investment for any pool owner.
Q: How many panels do I need for my pool?
A: Divide your pool's surface area (m²) by 6 to calculate the number of panels required. For example, 1 panel covers ~9,000L, 5 panels cover ~45,000L, and 15 panels can heat up to ~125,000L.
Q: Do I need a bubble cover with this system?
A: Yes. For optimal heating efficiency and to retain warmth, a pool bubble cover is essential.
Q: Can the panels handle harsh weather?
A: Yes. These panels are hail resistant, UV stable, and designed to last 2030 years.
Q: Is this system suitable for DIY installation?
A: Yes. It is DIY-friendly, lightweight, and easy to install. Kits, vacuum breakers, and webbing are sold separately.
Q: What happens in freezing weather?
A: Panels should be drained during cold spells to avoid damage and extend lifespan.

The Rubber solar panel system effectively harnesses the sun's abundant energy by acting as a proficient collector. These panels are securely installed on the roof of your house or any suitable structure. During daylight hours, clean filtered water is circulated through the panels using your existing pool pump.
As the water rushes through the panels, it absorbs the sun's radiant heat and returns to your pool as warm water. This cycle is repeated continuously throughout the day.
To maintain your desired pool temperature, you have the option to control it by toggling the bypass valve on and off.
a non-return valve must be installed, which safeguards your pump and filter against back pressure when the system is switched off. Additionally, a vacuum release valve ensures that all pipes and panels are drained when the system is not in use. This guarantees a freeze-free solar system during the winter months, providing you with a hassle-free experience.
