POWERSTRIP SOLAR POOL HEATING QUOTATION

SIDEWAYS CONFIGURATION

Recommended sizing is at :

Count the number of rows of tiles and record the side to side measurements of the roof space.

Powerstrips will normally be assembled (headers attached to fin tubing) on the roof.

Below are the lengths that can be made up with our standard 88 foot rolls of fin tubing (4 inches wide)

For pricing choose the next larger length. You can treat the lengths as average lengths because you'll cut them from 88' long rolls

Consult with Hot Sun by phone or e-mail with help figuring out how much fin tubing is required

If the lengths below result in excessive waste we'll precut custom lengths for you at a 10% surcharge

Hardware above is based on an assembly as shown below. Every second header has an assembly as shown on the left

with 18" of strap and every row of headers has an assembly as shown on the right with 2 feet of strap.

hose clamp and strap bracket around white pipe provide a means

to positively support weight with no risk of slippage

Two tube wide glue strip made of Powerstrip fin tubing can be used to

secure the fin tubing before gluing to the roof

Will you use fin tube strapping?

Yes

You can just glue as you go if you're careful

This quote is based on

this basic configuration

We still need to determine

there are no pressure issues

If there are, the parts list may change

but the price won't be affected very much

1.5

Choose 1.5" or 2" main pool plumbing. This is size of the pipe solar will tie into.

Solar ties in right after the filter usually.

1.5

Will you plumb solar with 2" or with 1.5"? The solar panels are 1.5" so

plumb to and from the collectors using 1.5" unless the run is really long

or the system is more than 800 sq ft. This calculator assumes that if you

plumb in 2" you'll split to 2 banks of 1.5" on the roof.
