Plumb the solar feed and return lines between the filter and the heater. Install a three-port valve
at the feed line. Use a solar valve (model SOL-2T), to allow automatic draining of the panels.
A solar booster pump should be used when the distance to the panels exceed 200 ft., or the
panels are elevated higher than 25 ft.
Glazed solar panels require a drain valve (model HW-5B) to allow draining of the panels. This
prevents damage from overheating water. Install a drain valve at the solar feed line and connect
to the pool fill line.
SCG systems only: IntelliChlor cell with check valve between the heater and valves. Refer to
IntelliChlor User’s Guide (P/N 520589) page 4 for plumbing requirements.
Equipment Location
All equipment, with the exception of the spa-side remote, must be located at least 10 ft. from the
water’s edge.
