SunTouch Pool and Spa Control System Installation and User’s Guide
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 (P/N 263047)), 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 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.
Equipment Location
All equipment, with the exception of the spa-side remote, must be located at least 10 ft. from the water’s
edge.
