Description

The OKU solar collector type 1000 is a powerful, durable, and environmentally friendly way to heat your pool water using solar energy. This solar collector is perfect for both private pools and commercial applications, offering an affordable and efficient solution for heating pool water. The OKU solar collector works by capturing the sun's heat and transferring it to the water flowing through the collector, heating your pool in a natural and inexpensive way.

The OKU solar collector type 1000 features an integrated 40 mm manifold and two 25 mm connections, making it ideal as a corner piece in a solar panel system. This system can be expanded with type 1001 for multiple rows of solar collectors stacked vertically, or type 1002 for a single horizontal row of solar collectors. Thanks to the smart design, heat transfer to the pool water is optimal, while the PE (polyethylene) panels ensure frost resistance and durability.

This solar panel system is easy to install and offers a scalable solution: whether you need one panel or several, the OKU system can be customized to your specific pool needs. For optimal efficiency, it is recommended to use the solar collectors in combination with a good pool cover.

Conclusion

The OKU solar collector type 1000 offers an efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective way to heat your pool water. The system is easy to install, expandable, and provides high efficiency. Thanks to its robust construction and weather resistance, you can enjoy warm pool water for years to come with minimal maintenance costs. With the right cover and the installation of multiple solar collectors, you will get maximum performance out of this solar panel system, making it a smart choice for pool heating.

Pros and cons

• Efficient energy use: The use of solar energy makes heating your pool an environmentally friendly
• affordable solution, with a potential efficiency of up to 85%.
• Expandable system: The OKU solar collector system is easy to expand, making it suitable for both small private pools
• large commercial pools.
• Frost
• weather resistant: The solar collector is resistant to extreme temperatures (between -50°C
• +115°C)
• can be used in all weather conditions without issue. Furthermore, the collector is sturdy enough to be walked on.
• Long lifespan: The durable polyethylene material
• sturdy construction ensure that the solar collector will last for many years without any loss of performance.
• Simple installation: Thanks to the integrated collector pipe
• standard connections, the system is easy to mount on roofs, frames next to the pool, or against a wall.
• Space required: For optimal heating capacity you need multiple solar collectors, which can take up quite a lot of space depending on the size of your pool.
• Manual bypass required for regulation: Although the collector works well in combination with a filter system, the flow must be manually regulated with a bypass. For automatic control, an additional solar system is required.
• Additional installation supplies: Although the solar collectors are relatively easy to install, you will need extra connecting hoses
• accessories to complete the installation, such as PVC piping
• glue (not included).
