Poolmaster 59010 Above Ground Pool Solar Heating Panels Reviews

Customer Ratings:

I've read the previous reviews and it appears that the verbiage has been corrected since them. I received exactly what was described in the package. Was easy to install! I didn't buy the starter kit so I did have to buy a couple extra things from Home Depot but that much I was expecting. I'm using it in Palm Springs CA. I am actually very amazed at the difference in water temperature coming out of it especially considering the amount of water going through it! I've just ordered a second one to double the effect! I'm looking forward to receiving it tomorrow and installing for use this weekend!

I bought this one last year, two panels and it works great for North Dakota. However, one of the ends is leaking now so I have to find a good epoxy or something to repair it. I also had to "rig it" for the Intex Pump. I would recommend a solid panel.

I connected the product as instructed, once I turned my pump on it immediatly blew the end off a brand new 35foot hose. I had added two of these hoses to get the panels into the sun. I replaced the blown hose, and tried again, this time it worked for a couple days, but leaked at the ends where the hoses connected to the panels. After a couple days running one of the panels ruptured from the amount of pressure. I didn't know it ruptured and it ended up draining my pool.

Honest reviews on Poolmaster 59010 Above Ground Pool Solar Heating Panels

I must preface that I have a Master's degree in chemistry with a minor in physics. I believe I have a better than average mechanical ability. Also, until ordering from this manufacturer, I have used another manufacturer's panels for 5 years.

For me, this product has failed on 3 accounts:

The most serious problem is that while I could easily connect the three segments on one end using their bayonet-style connector design, I could not connect any of the three segments together on the other end (1). The instructions were not explicit as how to connect the panels, presuming it to be obvious to the assembler (2).

The third problem was that extra assembly hardware was present and needed assembly hardware was absent.

I only put in a 4x10 section, I can add more, i'll think about it. but I piped it to a sunny spot, raised my pool temp 4 degress above my neighbors pool, so it is effective, recommend putting shutoffs so you can bypass it once the pool heats up enough. don't need it in august.
