sunCOIL - Pool Connections
NOTE:
Turn off the pool pump before connecting the sunCOIL. Block water flow at the Pool
Return & Skimmer.
WARNING: The Flow Reducer must be installed on the filter side of the sunCOIL.
!
(When more than one sunCOIL is connected, the Flow Reducer must be installed in the sunCOIL
on the side that is the nearest to the Filter. There is no need to install a Flow Reducer on the other
solarDOMES.) Installing the Flow Reducer properly will put less water pressure on the sunCOIL &
extend it's service life.
!
Reminder: Do not forget to unblock the Pool Return & Skimmer before turning on the pump.
1. Filter to Diverter Valve Connection
A. Wrap the threads of the 3 Hose Adaptors
with Teflon tape (provided). Twist these
adaptors into the 3 ports at the Diverter Valve
B. Position the Diverter Valve exactly as shown
in the diagram on Page 4 (see Fig 3).
The valve must be installed correctly for the
sunCOIL to work. Failure to position the Valve
correctly will reduce the sunCOIL 's ability to
heat the pool water.
C. After blocking the return fitting & Skimmer at
the pool to prevent water from flowing out of
the pool, remove the hose at the pool wall that
runs from the Filter System to the return fitting.
D. Connect this hose to the common port of
the Diverter Valve (at Position 4) & secure with
a stainless steel clamp.
2. Diverter Valve to sunCOIL Connections
A. Put the orange Flow Reducer into the
Elbow Connecter to be installed where clean
water from the Filter System enters the
sunCOIL.
B. If you are using the 1 1/2" diameter black
hose (provided), you must place the 1 1/4" - 1
1/2" rubber Elbow Sleeve on the Elbow
Connector. (If using 1 1/4" diameter hose the
Elbow Sleeve is not required.)
C. Put the hose on the Elbow Connector &
secure it with a stainless steel hose clamp.
(If necessary the provided hoses may be cut at
the cuff.)
D. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to
the O-ring & put the O-ring in the grove on the
short side of the Elbow Connector.
E. Insert the Elbow Connector into a port on
the underside of the sunCOIL & twist to lock it
in place.
F. Connect a hose from the Elbow to the
Diverter Valve (see Fig. 3 & 4).
