SunQuest Economy Pool Heater Panel - 1 (2ft x 10ft) Collector w/Hose adaptors - Solar Water Heater for Above Ground & Seasonal Pools - DIY-Tube on Web Design-UV Resistant

I have had two sets of those in the past. One set some 6 years ago, and one new since 2018. I have had issues with the first set because I left it outside during winter, but even with a complete drainage and winterization, there was always some leaks appearing every year that I had to repair - and that is not easy. In 2018, I purchased a new panel, that I have removed and stored it in a non freezable area (above 5C) during winter, and I have not had any leaks yet using it to warm the pool during the whole summer time. So, the recommendation is: STORE THE PANEL IN A NON FREEZABE AREA. Do not try to remove the water from it and leave it outside during winter - you will not win that battle !!

I was not 100% sold on this unit when I decided to buy it. However, I have to say that I am pleased with it. Unlike other units I have seen, this is very well made. The plastic welding is very uniform and professionally done. It's pretty durable.One bit of advice, when you receive it let it warm up in the sun so you can uncoil it with the minimum of stress to the plastic.I
