GAME 4721 SolarPRO Solar Pool Heater for Intex & Bestway Above Ground and in Ground Pools (Includes Intex Adapters)

Q: Will this work on my dough boy pool?

It should. Depends on how much sun etc your yard gets. We have an above ground pool (18 ft around) and normally temps are in the high 60s ( like 68-70) when we open the pool and we freeze when we get in or can't swim at all till mid June. We installed one of these and it's been a big help with raising temps. our yard is semi sunny and our temps have jumped up to 83 in our pool.

Q: I have 2 conected ro a 1.5hp motor and am not getting much if any heat thru the 2 heaters at all i have it setup just as the directions show.

How long do you run them? We are in Wyoming. Warm days, cool nights. We run ours from 9 am until about 5 pm. The heater is in the sun the entire time. Our pool, 18 foot round, 4 foot deep, gets to 100 in July. Now with cooler nights and daytime temps, it is at about 90.

Q: I have a 10,000 above ground pool would I need more than one of these

I used it on a 10 foot diameter, 30 inch deep Intex above ground pool, one of those with the blow-up ring around the top. It would heat it up a little on a warm sunny day. My pool is probably 1,000 gallons. So yes you would need more than one. If you can control the flow of water through the panel with a valve then you could regulate it to get maximum heat by slowing down the flow.

Q: Is having it installed for an extra fee an option? I'm a senior citizen, and not confident to hook this up by myself.

As long as you can bend over for a short time, you can handle it! I'm 54 (almost senior), but have a spine injury with a great deal of nerve damage. I was able to install alone. Just make sure you have the suggested lube to get the tubing into the unit, or you won't be able to get it in. That makes it a breeze! Good luck!
