Famous maker Solar Panels
  • Captures the most solar energy: Our proven tube-on-fin design sends 70% to 94% of the available solar energy to the pool water under normal operating conditions.
  • Most durable: Our headers are molded to the extruded absorber surface in a 450-ton injection-molding machine, forming a permanent, leak-proof bond. Our unique tube-on-fin absorber freely expands and contracts with temperature changes, relieving the stresses that cause other solar collectors to deteriorate with age.
  • Proven materials: HI-Deluxe is made from a special grade of polypropylene that has demonstrated consistently high reliability in solar pool heating collectors for over 23 years, in all climates.
  • Better flow: Generous two-inch inside diameter headers and straight-through water flow in the absorber tubes, improves water flow. Better flow raises solar collector performance and assures maximum pool filtration.
  • Better appearance: Our injection molding process smoothly joins the header and absorber, assuring consistently superior workmanship. Installed solar collectors are close-coupled, minimizing space between absorbers. The narrower gap improves the appearance of the array and fits more solar collector area into less space.
  • EZ Mount: Our exclusive EZ Mount system makes HI-Deluxe's installation fast, safe and durable. Built-in sealing pockets assure sealed anchor points. EZ Mount spaces the headers away from the roof. This protective design feature, combined with the tube-on-fin contour, eliminates the need for costly substrate.
  • Quality controls: Each HI-Deluxe solar collector is inspected at every production step. The completed solar collector is subjected to a pressure test of 100 pounds per square inch and undergoes a thorough final inspection before it is shipped. HI-Deluxe is made in the U.S.A. with care and pride. This outstanding quality makes it possible for us to give you a lifetime limited warranty.

Solar System Kit Selection Table


How to use this table - From the Pool Size column, select the closest pool size. In that row, find the solar collector area from the Pool Collector Area column. That will show you the minimum size system that will heat the pool under ideal conditions. Ideal conditions means in the sun all day and facing south at an angle from the ground.

From the following table you will find the areas in square feet of solar system kits with either 4x12 foot, 4x10 foot, or 4x8 foot solar collector panels. Determine the size panel that best fits the available space and select a kit with square footage equal to or greater than the minimum from above. The more square feet, the warmer the pool and the longer the pool season.
