A typical FAFCO system consists of solar collectors,
easily mounted on your roof, and an optional solar sensor and automatic control
unit. You simply set the automatic control unit (see photo below right) for the
desired water temperature.
Sensors detect changes in
the water temperature and direct the automatic control unit to close the
control valve so as to route water through the solar heat exchangers. Warm,
solar-heated water flows back to the pool, continuously circulating through the
collectors until it reaches pre-set temperature levels.
The controller pictured at right is set to approximately 84°. When the sensors detect that the water entering the collectors is already the desired temperature, the control unit causes the valve to open and water then bypasses the solar system and goes directly back into your pool from the filtration system.
