Routine Usage
To prevent heat loss at night and when the pool is not in use, it is recommended to cover it with a thermal insulating cover.
If the pool water is sufficiently warm, cover the Solar AquaDome to hide it from sun radiation. You can also stop the operation of
the pump during hours of intense sun radiation.
It is recommended to use a timer for automatic switching the pump on and off and for automatic starting and stopping the water
circulation in the heat collectors, for convenience and for ensuring that the pump operates during the desired hours.
Alternate "On & Off" operation of the pump will cause extremely hot water to come out of the heat collectors.
