Optional Automatic Solar Controls - FAFCO ST Installation Manual

OCCASIONALLY CHECK THE AUTOMATIC TIMER
Power failures, adjustments for Daylight Saving Time, etc. will put it behind. It will be necessary to
adjust the timer according to the season so that the Solar System will operate during the most
beneficial hours of the day.
POOL CLEANER TIMER
Special care must be taken when setting the timer for automatic pool cleaning equipment. Set your
pool cleaning equipment timer to turn on after the solar system. Typically, operating hours between
8:00pm and 8:00am are acceptable. This precaution prevents air from entering and possibly
damaging pool cleaning equipment during the startup of your solar system.

OPTIONAL AUTOMATIC SOLAR CONTROLS

Various optional, electrically operated solar controllers are available from a variety of
manufacturers. These controls allow for varying degrees of automation in the pool environment.
Controls may be available from the dealer where you purchased the panels or from a pool supply
house. You should read and follow the manufacturers directions in installing these controls to ensure
their proper operation and your satisfaction.
