The Intex solar heating mat presents an energy-efficient way to heat your above ground swimming pool by capturing the sun’s rays. It incorporates solar technology into the mat surface to absorb the sun’s rays, increasing the temperature of the pool water by approximately 3°-5°C (5°-9°F) depending on the weather conditions. Constructed of heavy-duty, UV-stabilised PVC, this mat is great for outdoor use. It is delivered with all the accessories including hose attachment points and a 0,5 m hose for easy connection, an adaptor A and B for hoses of 38 mm in diameter and a bypass valve. Simple to hook up, this mat is compatible with filter pumps of up to 1/3 horsepower or pumps with a flow rate lower than 7570 L per hour.
