When the Global Sun Oven is focused in the sun the interior of the oven is heated by the sun's energy. Panels of polished metal flare out above the oven and direct the suns rays into the oven chamber where the heat is trapped much like the heat captured when windows of a car are closed. The black surfaces on the inside of the oven capture and transform the sun's energy into a radiant energy wave length  that cannot escape the oven chamber. Direct and reflected sunlight enters the oven chamber through the glass door. It then turns to heat energy when it is absorbed by the black inner-shell and the levelator device . * The light energy absorbed by both the dark surface and thick steel walls of the The Global Sun Oven Roasting Pot [or otherdark pots] and the oven's dark interior is converted into longer wavelengths of radiant heat energy. Most of this longer-wavelength radiant energy cannot pass back out through the glass ensuring more efficient cooking. †   Food will not stick   or burn ... because the solar heat is radiated throughout the cooking oven and does not come from a single direct source; no hot spots created by harsh burners or heating elements.  Food does not even have to be stirred - PLUS the Sun Oven is an  excellent tool for boiling water. Cooking times are about fifteen minutes longer than with conventional ovens.  The oven will generally reach its maximum temperature as it is being preheated. The temperature drops slightly when food is placed in the chamber.  Note: The Sun Oven works even in subzero air temperatures as long as the sun is out the oven will capture the sun’s energy and cook as if it were a tropical day. The oven will heat up quicker on clear low humidity days. * The Global Sun Oven is equipped with a built in levelator device an inner shelf that pivots to always keep food level and avoid spills while the oven is being refocused. The levelator is easily removed to make cleaning easier - or expand the baking area! The four mirror finished anodized aluminum relecting panels fold in  and are easily secured with a heavy-duty strap. Convenient suitcase  style handle allows for hassle-free handling - rugger construction compact size and low weight make transport or storage a breeze!!! _______________________________________________________ Product Benefits: • Perfect for crock pot style cooking while busy or at work  •  Superior cooking; virtually every food tastes much better!!!   •  Captures the nutritional benefits of all natural cooking •   Bake breads casserole etc - without heating up kitchen! •  Facilitates enhanced cooking worldwide - from ice fishermen • in Minnesota baking their catch on a frozen lake to desert • dwellers in Kuwait baking lamb - from women in rain forests • of Africa who can't find wood to cook with - to deer hunters  • in North America who love moist venison - Sun Oven cooks!

As the sun moves overhead the temperature in the chamber slowly rises to a cooking level. As the sun passes the food is kept warm and when they return from work they have a warm sun-cooked dinner. [Keep in mind food will not burn in The Global Sun Oven and that the chamber is extremely well insulted allowing food to stay warm for hours - even after the sun is low in the sky]. Q:  Are special recipes or a different type of cooking required A:  No - special recipes or different type of cooking are not required. The Global Sun Oven reaches temperatures comparable to that of conventional ovens. A good rule of thumb is to add 10 to 15 minutes of cooking time for each time the oven door is opened. Q:  Does The Global Sun Oven require special pots and pans A:  No - but dark thin-walled pots with lids work best. Dark pots change the light from the sun into heat energy. Using lids   is very important because they hold steam inside the pot. If a lid is not used the steam will dissipate much of the heat. Shiny bright or light colored aluminum pots and pans cause light to be reflected out thereby reducing the oven's temperature. Glass casserole dishes with lids also work well. For baking cakes breads cookies and pies dark cookie sheets and baking tins work best. Q:  Is stirring to prevent scorching or burning to the pan required A:  No - due to the fact that there are no hot spots created by burners or heating elements stirring to prevent scorching or burning when cooking in The Global Sun Oven is not required. The temperature of the food rises evenly. It is almost impossible to burn food in The Global Sun Oven!!! Q:  Is The Global Sun Oven safe to operate A:  Yes - relatively speaking. The only parts that get hot are the oven chamber the cooking pan and the glass door. Only average care used with any cooking process must be taken - use hot pads when opening the door and removing food etc. The entire exterior of the oven including the reflectors remains safe to touch. Q:  Can The Global Sun Oven be used all year long including winter A:  Yes - even in winter!!! The most important factor in using The Global Sun Oven is the brightness of the day NOT the outside-air temperature. Often a 40-degree clear low-humidity day will allow food to cook faster than a 100-degree day with high humidity. The Global Sun Oven has been used very successfully at the base camp of a Mt. Everest expedition where the temperatures are often well below zero! There are however more cooking hours available in the summer than in the winter. In the early summer the cooking "window" is from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm whereas during the early winter effective cooking is limited to 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. Q:  How does The Global Sun Oven  actually work   A:  The black surfaces on the inside of the oven captures the sun's energy focused by the reflector panels and transforms the suns rays into a wave length that cannot escape from the oven chamber. When a The Global Sun Oven is focused directly into the sun the interior of the oven is heated by the sun's energy. Direct and reflected sunlight enters the oven chamber through the glass door. It then turns to heat energy when it is absorbed by the black inner-shell and levelator. This heat input causes the temperature inside the oven to rise until the heat loss of the oven is equal to the solar heat gain. The light energy absorbed by dark pots and the oven's dark interior is converted into longer wavelength heat energy. Most of this longer wavelength radiant energy can not pass back out through the glass ensuring more efficient cooking.  Q:  Are cooking times  the same as those in a conventional oven A:  Yes - Because the sun often is obscured behind clouds cooking times can vary. At times it may take a little longer. The factors that affect the cooking time are: 1 - The quality of the sunlight at the time you are cooking 2 - The types and quantities of the food being cooked 3 - How often the oven is refocused into the sun Q:  Is focusing The Global Sun Oven easy to do A:  Yes - All that is required is to watch the shadows created by the oven. When the shadows are even on all sides the cooker is directly focused. The built in leveling leg on the back of the oven allows for easy tracking. The Global Sun Oven is equipped with a built in Levelator device an inner shelf that pivots to always keep food level and avoid spills while the oven is being refocused. The need to refocus depends a great deal on what you are cooking the time of day and the temperature you wish to maintain. A good rule of thumb is to plan to readjust every 30 minutes to maintain maximum heat. At noon the sun is high in the sky and moves quickly past the maximum focus point creating the need to refocus more often. Later in the day you will not need to refocus as often. Many meals can be cooked without refocusing. Q:  How does The Global Sun Oven help build the  Green Movement A:   The Global Sun Oven is used worldwide . Currently they are being used in over 125 countries around the world. In many of these countries they are purchased unassembled and the final assembly is completed on location. This reduces the overall cost of the ovens and shipping while creating jobs locally. The demands of massive population growth and inefficient conversion of wood to charcoal have outstripped the developing world forests ability to regenerate. The ecological effect of gathering and burning wood fuel is very burdensome and has a far-reaching negative global impact. These global trends will lead to environmental destabilization - leading to deforestation - leading to global warming. Science strongly supports the fact that deforestation for agricultural and fuel use is changing weather patterns causing soil erosion and depleting plant and animal life. The Global Sun Oven offers a powerful solution to the effects of deforestation and can have an enormous positive impact on the everyday life of millions of people in developing countries by improving their nutrition health and quality of life. _______________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Please allow 2 to 10 business days for orders to be processed plus standard transportation delivery time.

An average cover installation requires less than an hour.  Note: All pool cover installations are do-it-yourself friendly; plastic material trims effortlessly and quickly with household scissors. Step-by-step instructions illustrate how to simply stretch cover onto surface of pool and trim around edge using side of pool as a template. Re-trim for precise fit if necessary. Principles of Operation: • The straightforward rationale supporting the use of solar pool covers is based on raising the pool water temperature by absorbing sunlight during the day - and then retaining that heat at night plus preserving the heat generated by a solar system heat pump or gas heater. Additional savings are gained by a variety of other incentives listed below.  High-performance prime resin polyethylene effectively captures the sun’s heat as it prisms through the specially designed raised circular air pockets within the laminated sheets of material resulting in higher transmissivity – and generating maximum heat penetration into the pool water. • Upgrading to the Blue Aluminum Space Age solar cover provides a technologically advanced design that collects and then multiplies heat. Initially it performs in a similar fashion as a traditionally designed cover. Then the specialized bonded layer of the Aluminum Heat Shield undercoating works to reflect the sun’s rays downward as they bounce up off the bottom of the pool trapping the collected heat and returning it back into the water below – creating an upward spiral of stored pool heat. Blue-Aluminum SpaceAge Round Bubble Notable 14.6 percent increase in heat retention over traditional bubble design generates a significant yearly energy saving on larger pools especially in cooler climates or with pools located near heat evaporating sources of constant wind i.e.; any site within several miles of an ocean or lake’s coastal shorelines. • Upgrading to the Diamond Bubble Cover Option effectively boosts the overall performance of the cover. Decreasing the space between the cells and increasing the air space within each cell with a more efficient diamond shaped bubble design results in dramatic increases in the insulating and heat generating effectiveness by up to 23 percent!

An average cover installation requires less than an hour.  For custom sizes please contact us Note: All pool cover installations are do-it-yourself friendly; plastic material trims effortlessly and quickly with household scissors. Step-by-step instructions illustrate how to simply stretch cover onto surface of pool and trim around edge using side of pool as a template. Re-trim for precise fit if necessary. Principles of Operation: • The straightforward rationale supporting the use of solar pool covers is based on raising the pool water temperature by absorbing sunlight during the day - and then retaining that heat at night plus preserving the heat generated by a solar system heat pump or gas heater. Additional savings are gained by a variety of other incentives listed below.  High-performance prime resin polyethylene effectively captures the sun’s heat as it prisms through the specially designed raised circular air pockets within the laminated sheets of material resulting in higher transmissivity – and generating maximum heat penetration into the pool water. • Upgrading to the Blue Aluminum Space Age solar cover provides a technologically advanced design that collects and then multiplies heat. Initially it performs in a similar fashion as a traditionally designed cover. Then the specialized bonded layer of the Aluminum Heat Shield undercoating works to reflect the sun’s rays downward as they bounce up off the bottom of the pool trapping the collected heat and returning it back into the water below – creating an upward spiral of stored pool heat. Blue-Aluminum SpaceAge Round Bubble Notable 14.6 percent increase in heat retention over traditional bubble design generates a significant yearly energy saving on larger pools especially in cooler climates or with pools located near heat evaporating sources of constant wind i.e.; any site within several miles of an ocean or lake’s coastal shorelines. • Upgrading to the Diamond Bubble Cover Option effectively boosts the overall performance of the cover. Decreasing the space between the cells and increasing the air space within each cell with a more efficient diamond shaped bubble design results in dramatic increases in the insulating and heat generating effectiveness by up to 23 percent! Blue-Aluminum SpaceAge Diamond Bubble Function: Reduces heating costs – increases swimming pleasure! Benefits: Worldwide shipping – lowest Factory Direct prices!!! Product Applications: • Standard sizes available to fit pools from 12’x24' up to 20’x40' • Cover floats flat on pool surface keeping water free of debris • Can be used on all residential and light-duty commercial pools • Supplementing any brand of pool heater with a solar pool cover   greatly enhances its performance plus reduces energy costs   up to 70 percent - thereby saving hundreds of dollars per year   in pool heating costs!!!

The Energy SuperMarket's most innovative product the breakthrough concept of HeatSavr™ Liquid earns a 5 star plus rating in our Consumer Value guide! And... The Energy SuperMarket offers the lowest on-line factory direct pricing now available! Guaranteed . HeatSavr™ Liquid  is an excellent and effortless alternative to conventional solar blankets. Effectively used for over 8 years by commercial pool operators to increase profitability the unique HeatSavr™ liquid has only recently been made available in bulk form for the residential pool owner. 1-Gallon HeatSavr™ Liquid...  the easiest  most effective way to save energy costs heating your outdoor or indoor pool. Try it !!! Each gallon container holds 140 ounces of the HeatSavr™ Liquid. HeatSavr™ is added to residential pool water at a ratio of 4 ounces per 1500 sq ft of pool surface area [width x length] daily or 1 ounce per 400 sq ft daily for commercial pools. _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering unit sizing support • Online e-mail technical and installation support • Brand and cost-of-operation comparisons _______________________________________________________ Explanation of the HeatSavr™ Liquid's Function: HeatSavr™ performs much like a conventional solar blanket but... eliminates the hassle of constantly removing and replacing of heavy awkward space consuming pool blankets. • Innovation – The patent protected HeatSavr™ is based on  the combination of two technologically advanced scientific formulas; a mono-molecular film-forming liquid and evaporation inhibitors. Designed to be lighter than water it automatically floats on top of  the pool's surface and forms an invisible microscopically thin but dynamically resistant barrier to escaping water vapor and heat. HeatSavr™ works by significantly slowing evaporation from the surface of a swimming pool - both indoor and outdoor pools! • Evaporation Heat Loss – When the pool water is warmer than the air around it or the air has lower than 100% humidity the pool rapidly evaporates water into the air. Large amounts of pool water along with its heat are literally blowing away from outdoor pools especially during windy periods and overnight - or being exhausted by the air conditioning system of an indoor pool. Heating pool water requires a major investment of energy and costs. And heat loss due to evaporation consumes up to 90% of the cost of keeping pool water warm enough to enjoy. HeatSavr™ Liquid significantly reduces that loss and therefore the financial cost of keeping a pool warm - as well as dramatically lowering the humidity of indoor pool areas. It does this by forming a totally safe invisible layer only one or two molecules thick on the surface of the pool! These molecules are naturally attracted to each other and always seek to form a perfect microscopically thin layer that covers the entire pool surface. As a comparison the individual HeatSavr™ molecules are 500 times smaller than the spaces found in a super high quality water filter. After a swimmer stops disturbing the water's surface the molecules immediately reform a cohesive layer. Most importantly - when they reform into a layer they reduce the evaporation speed of the pool by up to one half. •   Energy Savings – HeatSavr™ theoretically saves up to 50% of the energy costs to heat a pool - if no one ever swam in the pool and if the circulation pump were turned off. As this is unrealistic a more accurate performance expectation would be achieving savings as high as 40% with the additional bonus savings achieved through major reductions in water replacement due to evaporation loss. Most pool owners will find average energy cost reductions range between 17% and 30%. For every dollar spent on HeatSavr™ expect a minimum of two dollars in energy savings. Depending on the size of pool HeatSavr™ can yield large cost savings! HeatSavr™ will save energy in every pool - but heat cost savings will also vary according to the hours of swimmer use per day ventilation efficiency and especially the type and cost of fuel used as the cost of energy also varies from region to region. Tests have proven that energy savings range from a low of 15.5% at a high use 50 meter municipal pool to a maximum of 40% at a low use condominium pool. • Heath and Safety Assurances – All HeatSavr™ liquid ingredients have been thoroughly tested and proven completely safe for human contact leave no after-swim residue and is comprised of harmless non-hazardous elements. HeatSavr™ has been in use for over 8 years and maintains a proven track record in commercial use. HeatSavr™ is filter friendly does not affect the chemical balance [PH chlorine alkalinity etc.] of the water and will not damage vinyl liners or any other pool surfaces  plus it is absolutely harmless to skin or eye contact even in infants. HeatSavr™ is totally organic and biodegrade and after its time-span of effectiveness is achieved it quickly breaks down into harmless byproducts. Best of all... Swimmers in the pool will not even know HeatSavr™ is in use! _______________________________________________________ READ » Effectiveness Test Results • Savings from some Heatsavr current users • Evaporation Case Study READ » Safety Tests and Data • NSF Evaluation of Heatsavr Toxicology • Hyatt Island California Toxicology Report • Material Safety Data INFO » Energy Cost Savings and ROI • Download ROI [Return on Investement] • to calculate how much you can save!  _______________________________________________________ Commercial Use by Professional Pool Operators: Pool managers purchase HeatSavr™ in bulk for a variety of reasons. Significant savings on their energy bills is the single biggest factor! HeatSavr™'s ease of use without loss of energy savings is also very attractive to professional operators. Those who are already using a pool blanket find that while there are energy savings there are also inconveniences and that their staff are not motivated to use the blankets correctly and consistently. The professionals who operate indoor pools are most interested in reducing the humidity levels in their pool rooms and don't mind receiving the energy savings as a bonus. Note: The pure liquid form of HeatSavr™ is available in bulk supply for mid-to-large size applications - by the  gallon or case . _______________________________________________________ Product Instructional Information: • For best results HeatSavr™ should be applied once at the end of the pool-use day. • Add HeatSavr™ directly to residential pool water at a ratio of 4 ounces per 1500 sq ft of pool surface area [width x length] daily or add 1 ounce per 400 sq ft daily for commercial pools. • Bulk containers of HeatSavr™ may be stored for long periods of time without product losing strength. Avoid storing below 65 degrees F / 18 C. If white residue forms at the bottom simply immerse bottle in warm water until residue disappears. Note: In concentrated form HeatSavr™ could accidentally become flammable if directly exposed to an open flame and should be stored safely. If accidental eye contact with the concentrated form occurs flush with water for 15 minutes and contact a physician.  Helpful Q & A Information regarding HeatSavr™ use: Q: Can people swim while HeatSavr™ is in use A: Yes. HeatSavr™ has been designed to be in use 24 hours per day. This gives HeatSavr™ a distinct advantage over standard pool blankets. Q: Can HeatSavr™ be used along with a standard pool blanket A: Yes. HeatSavr™ adds to a conventional solar blanket's effectiveness while covered plus HeatSavr™ will continue working when the blanket is off. In addition HeatSavr™ reduces heat loss around the pool edges and blanket tears when the blanket is on. Q: Is HeatSavr™ safe for all types of filters and plumbing A: Yes. HeatSavr™ is a non-corrosive product that will have no detrimental effect on pipes valves chlorine controllers or filters commonly used in pool applications. Q: Is HeatSavr™ environmentally friendly A: Yes. VERY! Not only does HeatSavr™ bio degrade into safe simple compounds that return to nature but the reduction in global energy consumption all adds up to be beneficial to the planet. Q:  Is HeatSavr™ easy to apply  A: Yes. This product is very easy to use. It will take about two minutes per day to apply and it fits easily into the pool maintenance routine. When combined with an auto injection system it becomes even easier! _______________________________________________________ Manufacturer:  Flexible Solutions International Ltd.  Note: This product is non-returnable all sales final.

An average cover installation requires less than an hour.  Note: All pool cover installations are do-it-yourself friendly; plastic material trims effortlessly and quickly with household scissors. Step-by-step instructions illustrate how to simply stretch cover onto surface of pool and trim around edge using side of pool as a template. Re-trim for precise fit if necessary. Principles of Operation: • The straightforward rationale supporting the use of solar pool covers is based on raising the pool water temperature by absorbing sunlight during the day - and then retaining that heat at night plus preserving the heat generated by a solar system heat pump or gas heater. Additional savings are gained by a variety of other incentives listed below.  High-performance prime resin polyethylene effectively captures the sun’s heat as it prisms through the specially designed raised circular air pockets within the laminated sheets of material resulting in higher transmissivity – and generating maximum heat penetration into the pool water. • Upgrading to the Blue Aluminum Space Age solar cover provides a technologically advanced design that collects and then multiplies heat. Initially it performs in a similar fashion as a traditionally designed cover. Then the specialized bonded layer of the Aluminum Heat Shield undercoating works to reflect the sun’s rays downward as they bounce up off the bottom of the pool trapping the collected heat and returning it back into the water below – creating an upward spiral of stored pool heat. Blue-Aluminum SpaceAge Round Bubble Notable 14.6 percent increase in heat retention over traditional bubble design generates a significant yearly energy saving on larger pools especially in cooler climates or with pools located near heat evaporating sources of constant wind i.e.; any site within several miles of an ocean or lake’s coastal shorelines. • Upgrading to the Diamond Bubble Cover Option effectively boosts the overall performance of the cover. Decreasing the space between the cells and increasing the air space within each cell with a more efficient diamond shaped bubble design results in dramatic increases in the insulating and heat generating effectiveness by up to 23 percent!

The heat pump draws in effectively captures and then upgrades large quantities of available low-grade heat already existing in the warm ambient air – and transfers it to the pool and spa water. This is accomplished by utilizing minimal amounts of electricity and Freon gas along with a high-capacity fan super-efficient compressor and the existing pool pump. The process is similar to a refrigerator or air conditioner – only in reverse. Nothing is more refreshing than a warm swim or hot soak after a rigorous day of work or outdoor activities. So go ahead enjoy the benefits of the Ultimate Unit… you deserve it !!! ____________________________________________________ IMPORTANT NOTE: The average skilled handy person can easily manage a basic unit change-out or new installation.  For installations which require new electrical service hiring an electrical contractor is recommended.

Pool water running through the collectors in cold or rainy weather can actually cool the pool. If you have the Goldline Automatic Control you simply set the desired temperature on the control panel and the system does the rest. When the solar sensor finds that there is enough solar energy falling on the solar collectors to heat your pool and the pool is cooler than you desire it automatically sends water through the solar collectors. Bright sunshine is not needed to heat your pool. The solar sensor will turn on your solar heater even on a hazy or cloudy day when it finds the right amount of solar energy. _______________________________________________________ VIEW » Detailed Product Description HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support _______________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Delivery time varies.  Please allow 3 to 15 days for orders to be shipped plus standard transportation time.  EZHeat Deluxe Solar Heater Kit For: Above Ground Pools,EZDeluxe,Harter Industries 431.75 http://shop.solardirect.com/images/p_ezheat_logo_deluxe.gif 125 http://shop.solardirect.com//product_info.php?products_id=126 Optional EZHeat Roof/Rack Hold-Down Kit Attach Panels to Roof or Rack EZ Heat Roof or Rack Hold-Down Kit - Model: EZ1019 Product Application: To be used with EZ Heat Solar Pool Heaters Product Function: Includes the necessary clamps and adhesive to secure the system to roof ground rack or a sloping surface. Approximate shipping weight 11lbs EZ Heat Hold-Down Kit Installation Instructions: If you are mounting your solar system on a sloping roof or rack follow these steps to fasten it to the surface: a.  After sweeping the roof surface to remove loose particles unroll the solar system and locate it with the inlet connection as close to the roof eve as possible. b .  Attach the absorber sections to the roof with Solarbond mastic adhesive.  The 29 oz. cartridges fit a quart size caulking gun [not included]. c.  Starting with the top absorber section turn it up and apply a bead of mastic one foot from the header pipe and 18 inches apart thereafter.  Turn over the mat section with the mastic against the roof and firmly press the absorber into the mastic by pressing down hard against the webs between the tubes. Important: Keep all beads in line down the roof to allow rainwater to run under the collector surface so the mastic does not form a dam. If the roof is steep and the absorber sections slide down they may be held in place until the mastic sets by using a staple gun.  Drive 5/6” staples every 3 to 4 feet.  Be careful not to puncture the tubes.  Hold the nose of the staple gun against the side of the tube pressing down against the web between the tubes.  The staples do not penetrate the shingles and will rust and disappear in a few weeks. Use two of the Header Hold-Down Clamps to fasten the header pipes to the roof at each end of the solar system.  Use 1-inch long ¼-inch stainless steel or plated lag bolts to fasten the clamp assembly to the roof.  Drill with a 3/16” pilot hole.  If the hole penetrates the roof fill it and the space under the clamp with a high quality silicone sealer to prevent roof leaks.

Through testing we have learned that this style of cover retains 30+/- lbs. of water when rolled up at a normal speed. The retained water weight and the cover weighs approximately 76 lbs. This is beyond the maximum design weight of 60 lbs. Covers for larger pools will require a Commercial Reel System to manage the excess weight. Rolling the cover up very slowly allows for better water drainage from the cover reducing the weight borne by the reel system. The total weight with slow roll-up should meet our design weight specifications. Product Manufacturer:  Feherguard Note: All Rollers are non-cancelable and non-returnable.

Unless you have extremely oversized the pump (which wastes a lot of energy) trapped air in the return line can damage the recirculation pump. With these Grundfos recirculating pumps air removal can be accomplished by removing the back plug from the pump when the system is charged with water and the pump is turned off. The pump's slotted shaft is then rotated until the air no longer escapes. Then replace the back plug. To prevent air from collecting in the return line slope all the pipes so air will flow to the high point in the return line and then put a valve there so you can release the air periodically. ______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support ______________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Please allow 2 to 10 business days for orders to be processed plus standard transportation delivery time. 230V are not stocked and may take longer.

It is a continuation of the advanced electronic technology which produced the popular C-30 and CM-30 controllers - standards of the solar industry since 1975 with hundreds of thousands of units installed worldwide. With an adjustable high limit of 50º-104ºF the GL-30 is capable of handling most differential temperature control functions for operation of domestic water heating and sophisticated space heating and cooling. The GL-30 is designed to control recirculation drain-back and closed loop systems. Replacement unit for CM30 and C30: •  Control does not include power cord or sensors •  [must be purchased separately or in a package] •  Two SB-10K sensors may be required. [sold separately]  LED Indicators Three highly visible LEDs show: •  Power to control  • P ower out from control • Power out from control due to a recirculation mode to protect • the system from freeze damage. GL-30 Output The GL-30 output is rated at 20 Amps and is designed to directly operate a pump or fan for heat collection when the controller is sensing an appropriate temperature differential. Differential The GL-30 has an adjustable differential with a range of 8º to 24ºF. Solar systems with long pipe runs normally require a higher turn-on differential temperature and open loop systems with short pipe runs usually require a lower turn-on differential temperature for optimum performance. The GL-30 offers versatility to tailor controls to numerous specific systems designs. Storage High Limit The GL-30 allows you to set a high limit storage temperature from 110º to 230ºF. Recirculation Freeze Protection Recirculation freeze protection when enabled turns the GL-30 output on to circulate warmer storage water through the collectors when near freezing temperatures are reached at the collector sensor. System Test Switch The system test switch manually switches the GL-30 to ON AUTO or OFF for complete control over the system at all times.

Typically in solar applications the valve port opens on descending temperatures allowing the near freezing water in the solar panel to be discharged and replaced with warmer supply water. When the warmer water reaches the valve the port closes and water discharge stops. This cycle will repeat as often as necessary to help prevent freezing. The amount of water dispensed depends mainly on ambient air temperature make up water temperature the duration of the cold spell and the number and size of collectors. The system is functioning properly when water is being discharged from the valve during near freezing conditions. For water to be discharged at the time of operation system water pressure must be maintained.

Freeze Protection Valve Application Considerations: 1. The Invensys "Freeze Protection Valve(s)" functions properly provided the valve is installed in a location where during operation the warmer supply water first passes through the collectors and/or pipe to be protected and then through the valve. The "Freeze Protection Valve(s)" should be located in a position to allow good water distribution through the solar panel so that when the valve opens water flows as evenly as possible through all the collector tubes. Location of the valve may vary depending on the system design and piping. 2. Select a mounting position where the valve will sense the coldest anticipated ambient temperature. When used in conjunction with active systems the valve should also be located within close proximity of the collector outlet with 2"-6" offset below the collector header (see illustration). Do not mount in a position where the valve will be exposed to an unnatural heat source (i.e. poorly insulated roof dryer or furnace vents etc.). 3. The system must be subjected to normal operating pressures of between 20 and 125 PSI at all times for the valve to operate properly. Do not shut off water supply to the collectors or isolate the collectors from the city water supply. 4. When the valves are required be sure they are operating and installed in a proper location with respect to the “Freeze Protection Valve(s).” Water flow must be prevented from “bypassing” the collector. If the check valves leak water flow may be bypassed through the check valve rather than through the collector. 5. Do not insulate the "Freeze Protection Valve(s)" or exposed pipe between the collector and the "Freeze Protection Valve(s)." Sections of exposed pipe where no water flow exists during valve operation should be heavily insulated. The valve(s) should be mounted close to the collector to minimize the length of exposed pipe. 6. Install by applying torque with a wrench to the square metal inlet flange. Do not apply torque to the plastic body. 7. For proper utilization of the anti-siphon port the "Freeze Protection Valve(s)" should be installed in a vertical position with discharge port down. 8. To enhance customer satisfaction of this product we recommend a plastic discharge tube be connected to the 1/4" pipe threads or the 5/8" barbs then routed to a safe nonobjectionable location where the discharged water will drain. 9. If a discharge tube is used make sure it will drain freely and is installed in accordance to local codes. Avoid water traps in the discharge tube that could freeze and prevent drainage. The valve has an alternate path for discharge water flow should the discharge tube become impaired. 10. Do not attempt to disassemble the top cover. The inlet retention flange can be removed to inspect the screen for periodic cleaning and replacement. _______________________________________________________ Product Manufacturer: Invensys Appliance Controls.

Erie's familiar brands are used in residential hydronic temperature control applications. PRODUCT APPLICATION: PopTop Series valve bodies and actuators provide easy installation for a variety of heating and cooling applications. Valve’s actuator can be installed after valve body has been installed onto fan coil baseboard  plumbing or air handler. VS Series valves are available for low pressure steam applications. PRODUCT FUNCTION: Ideal for active solar systems to prevent thermosyphoning[backflow] prevents heat loss at night. A solar panel re-radiates heat on clear cold nights back into the sky.  This phenomenon known as thermosyphoning causes the water in the solar panel to cool and fall due to the laws of physics.  The hot water from the storage tank then begins to rise to displace the water in the panel.  This cycle continues naturally without any mechanical input from the pump.  If this process is not stopped the temperature of the storage tank can drop dramatically overnight sometimes resulting in a loss of 50 degrees or more. To prevent thermosyphoning a check valve must be used in the return line from the panel back to the storage tank.  A mechanical check valve [spring or swing] can be used; however they are highly prone to corrosion from poor quality water and can easily stick open – defeating their purpose.  The best solution is to use a motorized positive seal valve.  Both Erie and Honeywell Motorized Check Valves provide excellent service life with a high quality product. PRODUCT FEATURES: • Direct replacement for all existing PopTop applications. • Hysteresis synchronous motor for long life • Spring return operation provides a fail-safe • Valve body rated for 300 psi static pressure • Available in a variety of voltages [110 volt standard] • Actuator mounts directly onto valve body without need for • linkages or calibration • Manual override lever (normally closed only) • Actuator can be replaced without any tools or removal of valve • from system • VS Series available for low pressure steam ____________________________________________________________________ Mounting The valve can be mounted in horizontal or vertical piping. When installed in horizontal piping the actuator must be above the valve body. When installed in horizontal piping the actuator can be tilted left or right but it must not be tilted below 85° from vertical. ____________________________________________________________________ Erie Motorized Check Valve Model: VT2212G13B020 1/2" sweat connections spring loaded normally closed  110volts.

If package is damaged notify the appropriate carrier immediately. If undamaged open the package and inspect the device for obvious damage. Return damaged products. Requirements: • Tools (not provided) • Wrench 1 to 1-5/8" (if threaded valve) • Soldering equipment (if sweat fit) or flare • Other accessories as appropriate Precautions: • Electrical shock hazard! Disconnect power before installation to • prevent electrical shock or equipment damage. • Make all connections in accordance with the electrical wiring • diagram and in accordance with national and local electrical • codes. Use copper conductors only. • All conductors shall be provided with insulation rated for the • highest voltage motor and end switch circuits. • Avoid locations where excessive moisture corrosive fumes • explosive vapors or vibration are present. • Avoid electrical noise interference. Do not install near large • conductors electrical machinery or welding equipment. • When making lead connections within the actuator use caution • not to put leads or connectors below the motor. Note » • make certain there is no overhead water source that may drip • onto valve actuator. • In normal service some condensation may occur on or around • the valve. A drip pan may be necessary or the valve body may • be insulated. Piping These valves must be piped so the paddle closes against the direction of flow. Flow is from B to A. When installing the actuator to a normally closed valve the actuator must be placed in the manually open position by using the manual operating lever. The first time the valve is operated electrically the manual operating lever of the actuator will transfer to the automatic position. The manual operating lever can be used to allow flushing of the system after installation. The valves are designed for application in closed hydronic heating and cooling systems. High levels of dissolved oxygen and chlorine found in open systems may attack the valve materials and result in premature failure. Install over a drip pan if condensation in chilled water applications occurs. Note » • Three-way valves always require a normally closed actuator. • Three-way valves are always closed at the B port when • no power is applied to the motor. • On power-up the valve closes to A port on three-way valves. • Orient the three-way valve body as needed for normally open or • normally closed flow through coil. Sweat Connections: Do not solder with actuator in place or with paddle against seat as the heat can damage the unit. Before soldering move the manual open lever into Open position then remove the actuator from the body. Orient paddle so it is not against a seat. Use lead or tin based solder with melting point below 600 °F. Do not overheat. Direct flame tip away from valve. Cool valve quickly with a wet cloth. Body assembly can be submerged for leak testing prior to attaching the actuator. CHECK OUT: • Make sure the valve stem rotates freely before and after • installing the actuator. • If the stem does not operate freely it may indicate that the stem • was damaged and may require that the valve be repaired • or replaced. •  After the piping is under pressure check the valve body and • the connections for leaks. •  After the valve and actuator are installed power the actuator • and check the operation. THEORY OF OPERATION: PopTop Series are two position spring return valves. When powered the actuator moves to the desired position tensing the spring return system. When power is removed the actuator returns to the normal position. PopTop Series two position spring return valves can be purchased with an optional built-in auxiliary SPDT end switch for interfacing or signaling; for example zone pump burner control. PRODUCT MAINTENANCE: PopTop Series two position spring return valves are maintenance free. Replace defective modules. Actuator may be replaced without removing the valve. Regular maintenance of the total system is recommended to assure sustained optimum performance. FIELD REPAIR: Replace any damaged or failed components with complete replacement unit.

HELP » Installation Manual [PDF Format] Caution: Periodic inspection by a licensed contractor is recommended. Corrosive water conditions temperatures over 210°F [99°C] unauthorized adjustments or repair could render the valve ineffective for service intended. Regular checking and cleaning of thermostat assembly helps to assure maximum life and proper product function. Frequency of cleaning depends upon local water conditions. Watts 70A Series Troubleshooting Guide Problem Cause Solution Fluctuating or erratic hot water temperature at fixture. Heavy draws of either cold or hot water elsewhere in the system such as clothes washer or dishwasher. Unbalanced pressures. Hot water temperature control valves cannot compensate for this condition. Check valves in hot and cold legs to hot water temperature control valve would help but not cure the problem. Install balancing or throttling valves (shutoff valves) in hot and cold legs to hot water extender tempering valve and adjust accordingly for demand. Hot water backing up into cold water line. Hot water pressure overriding cold pressure. Install check valve in cold water leg to hot water temperature control valve. Cannot adjust water temperature to desired temperature. Unequal pressures. Hot or cold temperature differential. Valve undersized. A balancing or throttling valve must be installed in the cold water leg to the hot water temperature control valve to throttle or restrict the pressure. In most installations the cold water supply line feeds both the hot water temperature control valve and the water heater or tankless heater. To compensate for the pressure drop through the heater the cold water to the hot water temperature control valve must be throttled or reduced. Check water heater controls to verify that the water temperature is the same as the heater thermostat setting. Check gpm flow required versus gpm flow capacity of valve. High pressure drop through hot water temperature control valve. Valve undersized. Install larger hot water temperature control valve. Insufficient hot water during peak demand Valve undersized. Heater or capacity insufficient for demand. Check gpm flow required during peak demand period and size hot water temperature control valve accordingly. Frequent failure of thermostatic element. Thermostatic element exposed to extremely high temperature. Corrosive water conditions. (Buildup of mineral deposits) Electrolysis (pitting deterioration etc.) Check heater thermostat setting. Hot water temperature control valve must be trapped at least 8" to 12" as per installation instructions. Install check valves as recommended. Frequent cleaning of thermostat element and plunger would tend to prolong the life of the element. A small coating of FDA approved silicone lubricant in the piston area of the element would also help. Electrically ground the piping system or install dielectric unions. All hot or cold water flows at hot fixture. This problem will require considerable troubleshooting met. Minimum flow requirement for 70A series valves is 2 gpm. Verify that complete installation instructions were followed: Is valve properly trapped Check to see if thermostatic element has failed. Check to see if temperature control on water heater is set at desired temperature. Check to see if minimum flow requirements for valve size are met. Minimum flow requirements for 70A series valves is 2 gpm. WARNING Watts hot water extender tempering valves cannot used for tempering water temperature at fixtures. Severe bodily injury [i.e. scalding or chilling] and/or death may result depending upon system water pressure changes and/or supply water temperature changes. A.S.S.E. standard 1016 listed devices such as watts models L111 or MMV should used at fixtures to prevent possible injury. The WATTS hot water tempering valves are designed to be installed at or near the boiler or hot water heater. They are not designed to compensate for system pressure and/or temperature fluctuations and should not be used where devices tested to S.S.E. standard 1016 are required. These WATTS valves should never be used to provide "anti-scald" or "anti-chill" service. _______________________________________________________ Product Manufacturer: Watts Industries Inc.

The magnetic field grasps the impeller and visibly spins it without any moving parts or seals. As a result it's extremely long-lived without much power consumption. These pumps are completely brass and stainless steel so they don't corrode. The El SID pumps have no seals which can leak and no bearings to get hot or brushes to spark - they are explosion proof. Product Applications: •  Solar Domestic Water Heating Systems - closed loop •  To be used  with a solar electric module [not included] •  Floor Heating Systems Product Function: This pump is used to circulate the water throughout the radiant panel or other hot water heat emitting system. Product Features: •  Brass and stainless steel construction •  Power source AC/DC •  High efficiency - typical start 1 watt •  Magnetic coupled drive •  Locked impeller protected [PV] •  No shaft - no fan •  Brushless •  No maintenance required •  Quiet operation LED Signals Four red LEDs will glow when the impeller is spinning. Two will light if the impeller is stuck one above and one below. Product Specifications: •  Light weight - 2 lbs •  Compact size: 2.75" sq - 3" thick •  Low voltage [class II] driver •  High temperature - 250°F fluid max. •  High pressure - 175 psi. max •  Vertical or horizontal piping All 2W2 drivers look alike. [Two Wire 2nd Version] All 2W2 drivers are Static Impeller Drivers™. SID™ Shown is 1/2" female NPT adapters and 1/2" pipe. Also shown are the heads of four Philips screws that fasten the 2W2 driver onto the head. Wetted materials are: •  Food Grade Stainless Steel •  Cast Bronze •  Teflon •  Hi-Temp ROYTON Plastic •  Ceramic Ferrite Magnet Four common screw heads are shown holding the stainless steel fluid retaining plate in place. Also shown are four screws coming from the back of the pump head. When the 2W2 driver is in place a total of eight screws squeeze the fluid retaining plate in place. Note that there is no shaft and [of course] no shaft-seal. The crown at the center of the retaining plate houses an eight pole ceramic magnet. Thus the rotating magnetic field in the 2W2 driver is coupled to the impeller which resides in the fluid. Easy to install The brass pump is soldered into your copper plumbing and the driver screws on top of it. Any driver [regardless of size] can be interchanged on the same pump which means that if the pump doesn't provide the flow you need you can install a larger driver within a couple of minutes.  PV MODELS: •   Model SID3.5 A 3.5-watt driver intended for PV domestic hot water and instant hot water circulation without glycol. Requires a 5 watt Amorphous/CIS module or larger such as Shell ST5. It is rated for 2.0gpm and can be used in open loop water systems with one 4x10 solar collector. •   Model SID5 A 5-Watt driver intended for PV domestic hot water and 24 hour instant hot water circulation.

See specifications for "B" Models [battery operated] shown above Product Warranty: View »   El-SID Warranty Information [Pdf Format] _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Frequently Asked Questions: What is the difference between the B [battery] and PV [photovoltaic] versions There are specific models that can be operated directly off a PV panel or a battery or off an independent AC power supply. If you're going to use an AC power supply: • 14-17 volts; use a PV model • 12 to 14 volts; you can use a B model What is the pump's power usage 3.5 or 5 or 20 watts at 12 V and 10 watts at 12 or 24 V. What is the SID pump's best use The pumps are circulating and are best for circulating water in a closed-loop system such as heating or solar. As for anything else their use is as unlimited as your imagination. Keep in mind they'll pump water as well as antifreeze and various other chemicals. Here are just a couple of ideas: • You can power them with a small RV deep-cycle 12-volt battery. Keep a trickle charger on the battery so that if the power goes out your pump will keep on running. • For solar system loops the SID can be powered directly from a PV panel. The sun comes up heat builds in the solar hot water panel and at the same time electricity is made in the PV panel. The pump slowly starts with the smallest amount of current and pushes the heated water to the storage tank. It's all too simple and eliminates all controllers thermostats and sensors. What is the most common size The SID10 because it's been around the longest. It's a good average size for radiant floor heat and domestic hot water solar. What would the 3.5 and % watt models be used for Smaller systems anything that needs less lift. Why are SID pumps more expensive They're actually fairly inexpensive compared with other cheaper and shorter-lived pumps. They have for instance no brushes to change and no moving or rubbing parts. _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support _______________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Please allow 3-10 days for delivery El Sid Solar Circulating Pump Model: SID PV Series - DC Voltage,SID Series,Ivan Labs 207.00 http://shop.solardirect.com/images/p_elsid.gif 167 http://shop.solardirect.com//product_info.php?products_id=168 Winter Cover For Above Ground Round Pools Supreme Supreme Round Winter Cover For Above Ground Pools   Midwest Canvas Corporation offers a super strong winter cover.  Unlike Standard Covers Supreme Covers have two layers of extra edge binding for double strength and lasting usage.  Covers come complete with everything you will need to attach your cover easily and securely.

Flotation Air Pillow For use with Above Ground Pool Winter Covers Floatation air pillows hold up the cover and inhibit the buildup of snow ice and debris during the winter months. •  Supports the center of winter cover Raising the center of the winter pool cover allows rain and snow to flow off cover and debris to reposition toward edge for easy disposal. Rugged inflatable pillow also supports the winter cover while absorbing the pressure of the freezing water.     Three sizes to choose from:  4' x 5'  /  4' x 8'  /  4' x 15'  Without an air pillow winter pool covers can sag due to rain and snow and collect unwanted debris Instructions: Make sure pool water is no less than 6" from top of pool.  If a through-the-wall skimmer is used cover up the simmer opening. Inflate floatation pillow and secure the pillow in the center of pool by tying grommeted ends with nylon rope to pool sidewall. Place the cover over pillow to form a loose pyramid letting the cover fall in the water around the circumference.  Pull end of cover over pool wall.  It is important that the cover fits snugly against the wall to prevent wind from getting under the cover and causing the cover to billow and flap. Caution: such billowing and flapping can cause serious damage to the cover. If you cannot get a snug fit you must block any openings between the cover and the pool wall. _______________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Please allow 2 to 10 business days for orders to be processed plus standard transportation delivery time.   Flotation Air Pillow For All Above Ground Pool Winter Cover Applications For: Supporting Center,WCAP,MidWest Canvas 7.02 http://shop.solardirect.com/images/p_air_pillow.gif 186 http://shop.solardirect.com//product_info.php?products_id=187 ProgressivTube Solar Passive Water Heater Standard System - Complete Kit Receive 30% Federal Tax Credit ProgressivTube is so simple to operate and saves so much on your energy costs - you’ll wonder why you didn’t install one years ago!!!

Standard Deluxe or Premium System Complete Kits offer an inclusive parts list that incorporates the plumbing and manual control components necessary for a hassle-free installation. Detailed description of kit variations and differing functions: Standard/Direct Kit  – ProgressiveTube system uses a stand-alone configuration as the single source for providing hot water. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the collector unit and distributed directly to the points-of-use.  Applications : Best suited for use in equatorial and tropical type climates where hot-to-very-hot temperatures exist year round [such as the Caribbean Central Africa northern South American] and conventional water heaters are rarely used or electrical power is unavailable - but free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation and may be temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : No control valve is necessary. Deluxe/2-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then distributed directly to the points- of-use. The water heater must remain turned on to provide backup heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 2-Way plumbing configuration allows for isolation of the ProgressivTube system for maintenance or winterizing  and is typically adjusted on a seasonal basis only. Premium/3-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then distributed directly to the points- of-use. The water heater must remain turned on only when in the backup mode to provide  heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. It allows the selection of direct solar or solar with backup heater.  Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 3-Way plumbing configuration allows direct operation during periods when there is sufficient solar energy and no backup is required  and is typically adjusted when sporadic inclement weather conditions reduce solar effectiveness.  This maximizes overall operating efficiency and eliminates standby heat loss from the backup heater. The valves also allow for isolation of the ProgressivTube for maintenance or winterizing. Single Collector Panel  – does not include any plumbing or control components [purchased separately in the Parts & Supplies section]. It is intended for: •  add-on collector panels to Standard Deluxe or Premium System • Kits when additional panels are desired to increase capacity •  large commercial projects requiring multiple collector panels •  replacement change-out of damaged or obsolete collector panels   • custom applications requiring only the use of collector panels  Cold Climate Applications: Although ProgressivTube is ideally suited for equatorial tropical sub-tropical and temperate applications  all ProgressivTube kits can also be installed in colder climates as a "Three Season" system. During the summer and even in the early spring and late fall seasons  a ProgressivTube system continues to provide total or a substantial portion of hot water requirements. Simply drain the system during winter months when freeze proofing is required and low sun levels do not allow for efficient operation.  _______________________________________________________ System Selection »  Unit Sizing Chart Kit Contents  – Standard/Direct Complete System includes: • ProgressivTube Solar Collector Unit  • Mounting Hardware Kit – choose from flush fixed or tilt  • Roof Flashing Kit - copper fittings and flashings for pipe-through- •  roof plumbing penetrations  • DirectFlo Plumbing Kit – copper fittings AquaMix anti-scald mixing •  valve vacuum breaker valve pressure relief valve 2 boiler drain •  valves Optional: • 50-100 feet 3/4" flexible copper pipe and 48ft of pipe insulation • Freeze protection valve available for colder climates Mounting Selection:   Flush Mount - underside of unit attaches directly to the mounting surface.

Their unique passive design offers lower initial costs simplified installations and excellent savings potential over the 25 year + design life. ProgressivTube Advanced Features: The ProgressivTube passive solar heater is a self-contained unit that acts as a solar collector and storage tank integrated into one unit. In a typical installation most ProgressivTube systems utilize the panel unit as a pre-heater to a conventional or instantaneous water heater. ProgressivTube systems can also be used as a stand-alone heater when no backup is required. • Unique Attributes – ProgressivTube is rated as a passive system because it has no moving parts - and operates using the local water pressure and solar radiation. There are no pumps or controls to maintain and no electrical energy is required to make it function. ProgressivTube systems circulate the heat cost free on the basic principle of physics - hot water rises and cold water falls. The highly effective collector/storage tank of the ProgressivTube absorbs solar radiation through its high tech surface coating - which rapidly and dramatically raises the temperature of the water stored in the collector. • Superior Technology – ProgressivTube collectors are highly insulated with special closed cell foam and the unit is double glazed for maximized heat retention. Eight copper tubes are welded into a "series" flow pattern - so that the top of the lower tube feeds the bottom of the next tube. This allows the ProgressivTube to contain the colder replacement water in the lower tubes where it is heated by the sun as it flows from one tube to the next. • Innovation – Each time hot water is used the ProgressivTube's innovative ICS design [Integrated Collector Storage] eliminates the cooling down of the remaining heated water that normally occurs in other types of batch heaters. Not only does this design ensure the delivery of the hottest water but it also provides more hot water at a higher temperature and with a faster recovery time than other brands with similar capacity. ProgressivTube Highlights: • Glazing Gaskets – A continuous gasket made of special long life EDPM synthetic rubber is compressed by the glazing caps to seal out the weather. The inner glazing spline is made of high - temperature tolerant EPDM. • Glazing – Outer glazing is a tempered low-iron solar glass with 91% transmittance. Inner glazing is Teflon film known for its high temperature tolerance [525°F] and its long term durability and stability with 96% transmittance. The 3/4" air space between glazings reduces heat loss. • Fluid Connection – Inlet and outlet connections are made of 3/4" diameter Type L hard copper pipes. This allows for fast leak-free "sweat fit" soldering of plumbing connections. • Absorber / Storage Tank – Constructed entirely of copper the 4" diameter tubes are welded to the interconnecting pipes to form a "series" flow pattern. Each tank is pressure rated to 300 psi and is coated with a high-temperature selective solar radiation absorption surface that maximizes heat gain and reduces heat loss. • Insulation – Rigid closed cell polyisocyanurate foam board the most efficient available is used to maximize heat retention. Sides and ends of the unit have 1.5" board R-value 10; bottom has 2" board R-value 14; between tubes have 1.5" board R-value 10. • Collector Case – The baked-on bronze acrylic finish of the [hard temper T6] extruded aluminum frame wall and glazing caps [alloy 6061] assures years of attractive rust-free appearance. All rivets and bolts are aluminum or stainless steel. Aluminum .025" back. _______________________________________________________ Installation: An average skilled handy person can easily manage a new installation  a custom installation or a basic replacement panel change-out using the SINGLE PANEL Kit w/Panel Mounting Kit.

Detailed description of kit variations and differing functions: Standard/Direct Kit  – ProgressiveTube system uses a stand-alone configuration as the single source for providing hot water. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the collector unit and distributed directly to the points-of-use.  Applications : Best suited for use in equatorial and tropical type climates where hot-to-very-hot temperatures exist year round [such as the Caribbean Central Africa northern South American] and conventional water heaters are rarely used or electrical power is unavailable - but free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation and may be temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : No control valve is necessary. Deluxe/2-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then distributed directly to the points- of-use. The water heater must remain turned on to provide backup heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 2-Way plumbing configuration allows for isolation of the ProgressivTube system for maintenance or winterizing  and is typically adjusted on a seasonal basis only. Premium/3-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater.

Can also be used for ground mounts applications [cement pad or footings required]. _______________________________________________________ ProgressivTube is made by Thermal Conversion Technologies America’s oldest manufacturer of solar heating systems and the leader in integrated solar energy solutions since 1985. Their unique passive design offers lower initial costs simplified installations and excellent savings potential over the 25 year + design life. ProgressivTube Advanced Features: The ProgressivTube passive solar heater is a self-contained unit that acts as a solar collector and storage tank integrated into one unit. In a typical installation most ProgressivTube systems utilize the panel unit as a pre-heater to a conventional or instantaneous water heater. ProgressivTube systems can also be used as a stand-alone heater when no backup is required. • Unique Attributes – ProgressivTube is rated as a passive system because it has no moving parts - and operates using the local water pressure and solar radiation. There are no pumps or controls to maintain and no electrical energy is required to make it function. ProgressivTube systems circulate the heat cost free on the basic principle of physics - hot water rises and cold water falls. The highly effective collector/storage tank of the ProgressivTube absorbs solar radiation through its high tech surface coating - which rapidly and dramatically raises the temperature of the water stored in the collector. • Superior Technology – ProgressivTube collectors are highly insulated with special closed cell foam and the unit is double glazed for maximized heat retention. Eight copper tubes are welded into a "series" flow pattern - so that the top of the lower tube feeds the bottom of the next tube. This allows the ProgressivTube to contain the colder replacement water in the lower tubes where it is heated by the sun as it flows from one tube to the next. • Innovation – Each time hot water is used the ProgressivTube's innovative ICS design [Integrated Collector Storage] eliminates the cooling down of the remaining heated water that normally occurs in other types of batch heaters. Not only does this design ensure the delivery of the hottest water but it also provides more hot water at a higher temperature and with a faster recovery time than other brands with similar capacity. ProgressivTube Highlights: • Glazing Gaskets – A continuous gasket made of special long life EDPM synthetic rubber is compressed by the glazing caps to seal out the weather. The inner glazing spline is made of high - temperature tolerant EPDM. • Glazing – Outer glazing is a tempered low-iron solar glass with 91% transmittance. Inner glazing is Teflon film known for its high temperature tolerance [525°F] and its long term durability and stability with 96% transmittance. The 3/4" air space between glazings reduces heat loss. • Fluid Connection – Inlet and outlet connections are made of 3/4" diameter Type L hard copper pipes. This allows for fast leak-free "sweat fit" soldering of plumbing connections. • Absorber / Storage Tank – Constructed entirely of copper the 4" diameter tubes are welded to the interconnecting pipes to form a "series" flow pattern. Each tank is pressure rated to 300 psi and is coated with a high-temperature selective solar radiation absorption surface that maximizes heat gain and reduces heat loss. • Insulation – Rigid closed cell polyisocyanurate foam board the most efficient available is used to maximize heat retention. Sides and ends of the unit have 1.5" board R-value 10; bottom has 2" board R-value 14; between tubes have 1.5" board R-value 10. • Collector Case – The baked-on bronze acrylic finish of the [hard temper T6] extruded aluminum frame wall and glazing caps [alloy 6061] assures years of attractive rust-free appearance. All rivets and bolts are aluminum or stainless steel. Aluminum .025" back. _______________________________________________________ Installation: An average skilled handy person can easily manage a new installation  a custom installation or a basic replacement panel change-out using the SINGLE PANEL Kit w/Panel Mounting Kit.

Active systems use electric pumps valves and controllers to circulate the heat-transfer fluid through the collectors. Performance Performance varies depending on the type and size of the system the amount of sun available at the site proper installation and the tilt angle and orientation of the collectors. We can perform a solar site analysis for you or show you how to do your own to ensure you select the best system to meet your needs. Sizing Your System Proper sizing and selection of your system will insure years of trouble-free hot water service to your home. A good rule of thumb for sizing your system consists of two parts; Collector size and Solar storage . Collector size: Collector size is calculated at about 20 ft² of collector area for each of the first two family members and 8 ft² for each additional family member. Solar Storage: Solar Storage or tank size is calculated at a ratio of at least 2 gallons of storage capacity to 1 ft² of collector area.

They are designed to maximize the capture of solar energy in the temperature ranges required for domestic hot water. Flat plate collectors accomplish this by employing the green house effect. The glass covering permits up to 90% of the visible sunlight to enter the collector. When the light passes through the glass its frequency is changed slightly to a lower energy level. When the light strikes the absorbing surface of the flat plate inside the light is absorbed as heat. The combination of the glass frequency change and the solar absorbing surface of the plate capture the maximum amount of energy. As the absorber plate heats up it begins to radiate energy as infrared (IR) or heat radiation. Glass is essentially opaque to IR wavelengths so the heat is trapped increasing the temperature. Note: Sun Earth panels may be substitued with AET or Chromagen brands with similar specifications  based on stock availability.  If a specific brand is desired; you must specify with the order. Tank System Assembly: System comes pre plumbed and wired as a complete assembly. This is called the Tank System Assembly or TSA. The TSA contains the water heater tank pump controller tank sensor drain valve system drain valve and the wiring and piping to make all connections. The TSA the collectors and the interconnect piping make up the complete system. • Pump: The system is equipped with a single TACO 006BC4 circulator pump. It uses 115V regular AC power which is supplied from the controller. When heat is available in the collector the pump is energized to lift the heat transfer fluid (distilled water) through the interconnect piping to the collectors where it gains heat. • Controller: The controller is powered by 115V house current and is the device that determines if solar energy is available. The controller through the sensors constantly measures the temperature of the water heater tank and the collector comparing them to see if the collector is hotter then the tank. • Sensors: The system contains 2 sensors one at the outlet of the collector and one on the bottom of the water heater tank. The controller uses these 2 sensors to measure tank and collector temperatures. They are simple thermistor (thermal resistors) type sensors that have an inverse reaction to temperature. As the temperature goes up the resistance goes down. The controller is calibrated to read this as temperature changes. As the collector heats up the resistance goes down and at the right point the controller turns on the pump. The reverse happens when the collector cools off. • Water Heater Tank: This is a standard glass lined steel tank that is constructed just like any other water heater. • Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve: This device is inserted into the water heater tank for safety. It is located on top of the tank. The T&P relief valve is preset to open and discharge if either a high pressure or high temperature situation occurs in the water heater. All water heaters regardless of whether they are solar power or not must have this safety device which is required by national building codes. • Isolation Valve: Also called “Shut Off Valve” this valve is installed in the cold water service line to the water heater. It is used to isolate the system for maintenance repairs and service.  _____________________________________________________ Individual Component Kits [Included with Complete Solar Water Heater System Kits or may be purchased separately ] Collector Flat SunEarth 4 X 10 Solar Collector Flat SunEarth 4 x 8 Solar Collector Mounting Hardware Fixed/Horizontal mounting hardware 4ft.

Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the collector unit and distributed directly to the points-of-use.  Applications : Best suited for use in equatorial and tropical type climates where hot-to-very-hot temperatures exist year round [such as the Caribbean Central Africa northern South American] and conventional water heaters are rarely used or electrical power is unavailable - but free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation and may be temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : No control valve is necessary. Deluxe/2-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then distributed directly to the points- of-use. The water heater must remain turned on to provide backup heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 2-Way plumbing configuration allows for isolation of the ProgressivTube system for maintenance or winterizing  and is typically adjusted on a seasonal basis only. Premium/3-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then distributed directly to the points- of-use. The water heater must remain turned on only when in the backup mode to provide  heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. It allows the selection of direct solar or solar with backup heater.  Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 3-Way plumbing configuration allows direct operation during periods when there is sufficient solar energy and no backup is required  and is typically adjusted when sporadic inclement weather conditions reduce solar effectiveness.  This maximizes overall operating efficiency and eliminates standby heat loss from the backup heater. The valves also allow for isolation of the ProgressivTube for maintenance or winterizing. Single Collector Panel  – does not include any plumbing or control components [purchased separately in the Parts & Supplies section]. It is intended for: •  add-on collector panels to Standard Deluxe or Premium System • Kits when additional panels are desired to increase capacity •  large commercial projects requiring multiple collector panels •  replacement change-out of damaged or obsolete collector panels   • custom applications requiring only the use of collector panels Cold Climate Applications: Although ProgressivTube is ideally suited for equatorial tropical sub-tropical and temperate applications  all ProgressivTube kits can also be installed in colder climates as a "Three Season" system. During the summer and even in the early spring and late fall seasons  a ProgressivTube system continues to provide total or a substantial portion of hot water requirements. Simply drain the system during winter months when freeze proofing is required and low sun levels do not allow for efficient operation.  _______________________________________________________ System Selection »  Unit Sizing Chart Kit Contents  – Complete System includes: • ProgressivTube Solar Collector Unit  • Mounting Hardware Kit - choose from flush fixed or tilt  • Roof Flashing Kit - copper fittings and flashings for pipe-through- •  roof plumbing penetrations  • TwoWayFlo Plumbing Kit - copper fittings AquaMix anti-scald mixing •  valve vacuum breaker valve pressure relief valve 2 boiler drain •  valves 2-Way Configuration of 1 2-way ball valve and 1 3-way valve  • Tankless backup water heater - electric or natural/propane gas Optional: • 50-100 feet 3/4" flexible copper pipe and 48ft of pipe insulation • Freeze protection valve available for colder climates Mounting Selection:   Flush Mount - underside of unit attaches directly to the mounting surface.

Their unique passive design offers lower initial costs simplified installations and excellent savings potential over the 25 year + design life. ProgressivTube Advanced Features: The ProgressivTube passive solar heater is a self-contained unit that acts as a solar collector and storage tank integrated into one unit. In a typical installation most ProgressivTube systems utilize the panel unit as a pre-heater to a conventional or instantaneous water heater. ProgressivTube systems can also be used as a stand-alone heater when no backup is required. • Unique Attributes – ProgressivTube is rated as a passive system because it has no moving parts - and operates using the local water pressure and solar radiation. There are no pumps or controls to maintain and no electrical energy is required to make it function. ProgressivTube systems circulate the heat cost free on the basic principle of physics - hot water rises and cold water falls. The highly effective collector/storage tank of the ProgressivTube absorbs solar radiation through its high tech surface coating - which rapidly and dramatically raises the temperature of the water stored in the collector. • Superior Technology – ProgressivTube collectors are highly insulated with special closed cell foam and the unit is double glazed for maximized heat retention. Eight copper tubes are welded into a "series" flow pattern - so that the top of the lower tube feeds the bottom of the next tube. This allows the ProgressivTube to contain the colder replacement water in the lower tubes where it is heated by the sun as it flows from one tube to the next. • Innovation – Each time hot water is used the ProgressivTube's innovative ICS design [Integrated Collector Storage] eliminates the cooling down of the remaining heated water that normally occurs in other types of batch heaters. Not only does this design ensure the delivery of the hottest water but it also provides more hot water at a higher temperature and with a faster recovery time than other brands with similar capacity. ProgressivTube Highlights: • Glazing Gaskets – A continuous gasket made of special long life EDPM synthetic rubber is compressed by the glazing caps to seal out the weather. The inner glazing spline is made of high - temperature tolerant EPDM. • Glazing – Outer glazing is a tempered low-iron solar glass with 91% transmittance. Inner glazing is Teflon film known for its high temperature tolerance [525°F] and its long term durability and stability with 96% transmittance. The 3/4" air space between glazings reduces heat loss. • Fluid Connection – Inlet and outlet connections are made of 3/4" diameter Type L hard copper pipes. This allows for fast leak-free "sweat fit" soldering of plumbing connections. • Absorber / Storage Tank – Constructed entirely of copper the 4" diameter tubes are welded to the interconnecting pipes to form a "series" flow pattern. Each tank is pressure rated to 300 psi and is coated with a high-temperature selective solar radiation absorption surface that maximizes heat gain and reduces heat loss. • Insulation – Rigid closed cell polyisocyanurate foam board the most efficient available is used to maximize heat retention. Sides and ends of the unit have 1.5" board R-value 10; bottom has 2" board R-value 14; between tubes have 1.5" board R-value 10. • Collector Case – The baked-on bronze acrylic finish of the [hard temper T6] extruded aluminum frame wall and glazing caps [alloy 6061] assures years of attractive rust-free appearance. All rivets and bolts are aluminum or stainless steel. Aluminum .025" back. _______________________________________________________ Installation: An average skilled handy person can easily manage a new installation  a custom installation or a basic replacement panel change-out using the SINGLE PANEL Kit w/Panel Mounting Kit.

The Energy SuperMarket's best selling water heater the unique design of the ProgressivTube earns it 5 star plus rating in our Consumer Value guide!    And... The Energy SuperMarket offers the lowest on-line factory direct pricing available! Guaranteed . Premium Complete Kits are recommended for use in conjunction with a conventional water heater or a tankless backup water heater. The Premium Kit is best suited for use in tropical and sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round. The Premium/3-Way Kit combines the operational features and benefits  of the Standard/Direct and Deluxe/2-Way kits. Solar PreHeat Mode:  Plumbing from the ProgressivTube solar heater connects to the existing water heater which will stay inactive as long as the preheated water coming in is as hot or hotter than the temperature setting on the water heater unit. When the hot water provided by the solar collector falls below the set temperature the conventional water heater automatically turns on to heat water to required temperature. Solar Direct Mode: A manual 3-Way plumbing configuration also allows direct operation during periods when there is sufficient solar energy and no backup is required  and is typically adjusted when sporadic inclement weather conditions reduce solar effectiveness. This maximizes overall operating efficiency and eliminates standby heat loss from the backup heater. Solar Off Mode: The valves also allow for isolation of the ProgressivTube for maintenance or winterizing. This system requires no pump electronic controller or appliance timer to operate the circulation of heated water from the collector panel into the tank. Note: If a conventional gas or electric heater is not available or will not be used in heating operation please review the Standard Complete Kit model or the Single Collector Panel Kit. ProgressivTube ® solar domestic hot water heaters are designed to significantly reduce your power utility costs by using solar energy to heat water by capturing the sun’s natural FREE heat. Passive solar power is a highly efficient non-polluting alternative energy source that requires zero operating costs.

Solar PreHeat Mode:  Plumbing from the ProgressivTube solar heater connects to the tankless water heater which will stay inactive as long as the preheated water coming in is as hot or hotter than the temperature setting on the water heater unit. When the hot water provided by the solar collector falls below the set temperature the water heater automatically turns on to heat water to required temperature. Solar Direct Mode: A manual 3-Way plumbing configuration also allows direct operation during periods when there is sufficient solar energy and no backup is required  and is typically adjusted when sporadic inclement weather conditions reduce solar effectiveness. This maximizes overall operating efficiency and eliminates standby heat loss from the backup heater. Solar Off Mode: The valves also allow for isolation of the ProgressivTube for maintenance or winterizing. This system requires no pump electronic controller or appliance timer to operate the circulation of heated water from the collector panel into the tankless heater. Note: If a conventional or tankless heater gas or electric heater is not available or will not be used in heating operation please review the Standard Complete Kit model or the Single Collector Panel Kit.

Detailed description of kit variations and differing functions: Standard/Direct Kit  – ProgressiveTube system uses a stand-alone configuration as the single source for providing hot water. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the collector unit and distributed directly to the points-of-use.  Applications : Best suited for use in equatorial and tropical type climates where hot-to-very-hot temperatures exist year round [such as the Caribbean Central Africa northern South American] and conventional water heaters are rarely used or electrical power is unavailable - but free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation and may be temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : No control valve is necessary. Deluxe/2-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then  distributed directly to the points-of-use. The water heater must remain turned on to provide backup heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 2-Way plumbing configuration allows for isolation of the ProgressivTube system for maintenance or winterizing  and is typically adjusted on a seasonal basis only. Premium/3-Way Kit  – ProgressiveTube system used in conjunction with a conventional water heater or an instantaneous water heater. Function : When hot water is required solar heated water is drawn from the unit directly into a conventional or tankless water heater thus eliminating or reducing electricity or gas usage required for heating water. Hot water is then  distributed directly to the points-of-use.  The water heater must remain turned on only when in the backup mode to provide  heat as required and to maintain a ready supply of hot water.  Applications : Well suited for use in tropical  sub-tropical "SunBelt" and temperate type climates where mild-to-hot temperatures exist year round and conventional water heaters are always used - and free hot water is desired or required. It allows the selection of direct solar or solar with backup heater.  Performance : Hot water output is dependant on available solar radiation. Backup provides constant supply when solar performance is temporarily interrupted by inclement weather. Control Valve : A manual 3-Way plumbing configuration allows direct operation during periods when there is sufficient solar energy and no backup is required  and is typically adjusted when sporadic inclement weather conditions reduce solar effectiveness. This maximizes overall operating efficiency and eliminates standby heat loss from the backup heater. The valves also allow for isolation of the ProgressivTube for maintenance or winterizing. Single Collector Panel  – does not include any plumbing or control components [purchased separately in the Parts & Supplies section].

Their unique passive design offers lower initial costs simplified installations and excellent savings potential over the 25 year + design life. ProgressivTube Advanced Features: The ProgressivTube passive solar heater is a self-contained unit that acts as a solar collector and storage tank integrated into one unit. In a typical installation most ProgressivTube systems utilize the panel unit as a pre-heater to a conventional or instantaneous water heater. ProgressivTube systems can also be used as a stand-alone heater when no backup is required. • Unique Attributes – ProgressivTube is rated as a passive system because it has no moving parts - and operates using the local water pressure and solar radiation. There are no pumps or controls to maintain and no electrical energy is required to make it function. ProgressivTube systems circulate the heat cost free on the basic principle of physics - hot water rises and cold water falls. The highly effective collector/storage tank of the ProgressivTube absorbs solar radiation through its high tech surface coating - which rapidly and dramatically raises the temperature of the water stored in the collector. • Superior Technology – ProgressivTube collectors are highly insulated with special closed cell foam and the unit is double glazed for maximized heat retention. Eight copper tubes are welded into a "series" flow pattern - so that the top of the lower tube feeds the bottom of the next tube. This allows the ProgressivTube to contain the colder replacement water in the lower tubes where it is heated by the sun as it flows from one tube to the next. • Innovation – Each time hot water is used the ProgressivTube's innovative ICS design [Integrated Collector Storage] eliminates the cooling down of the remaining heated water that normally occurs in other types of batch heaters. Not only does this design ensure the delivery of the hottest water but it also provides more hot water at a higher temperature and with a faster recovery time than other brands with similar capacity. ProgressivTube Highlights: • Glazing Gaskets – A continuous gasket made of special long life EDPM synthetic rubber is compressed by the glazing caps to seal out the weather. The inner glazing spline is made of high - temperature tolerant EPDM. • Glazing – Outer glazing is a tempered low-iron solar glass with 91% transmittance. Inner glazing is Teflon film known for its high temperature tolerance [525°F] and its long term durability and stability with 96% transmittance. The 3/4" air space between glazings reduces heat loss. • Fluid Connection – Inlet and outlet connections are made of 3/4" diameter Type L hard copper pipes. This allows for fast leak-free "sweat fit" soldering of plumbing connections. • Absorber / Storage Tank – Constructed entirely of copper the 4" diameter tubes are welded to the interconnecting pipes to form a "series" flow pattern. Each tank is pressure rated to 300 psi and is coated with a high-temperature selective solar radiation absorption surface that maximizes heat gain and reduces heat loss. • Insulation – Rigid closed cell polyisocyanurate foam board the most efficient available is used to maximize heat retention. Sides and ends of the unit have 1.5" board R-value 10; bottom has 2" board R-value 14; between tubes have 1.5" board R-value 10. • Collector Case – The baked-on bronze acrylic finish of the [hard temper T6] extruded aluminum frame wall and glazing caps [alloy 6061] assures years of attractive rust-free appearance. All rivets and bolts are aluminum or stainless steel. Aluminum .025" back. _______________________________________________________ Installation: An average skilled handy person can easily manage a new installation  a custom installation or a basic replacement panel change-out using the SINGLE PANEL Kit w/Panel Mounting Kit.

These innovative water heaters provide endless hot water save energy and save space.   The 125 Series  water heaters supply one major hot water outlet at a time [Example: One shower running at a time]. Delivers up to 3.5 gallons per minute. They are sized for most homes and small businesses. The revolutionary hydro-generated ignition system incorporates hydro technology into a domestic water heating appliance. How tankless water heaters work: 1. When you open a hot water tap cold water enters the heater and triggers the heating elements or burners.  Your hot water tap acts as an ignition key for the energy used to heat the hot water you need. 2. The water is heated as it flows through the heating elements or heat exchanger. As the water flow varies the unit adjusts the heating elements or burner flame to maintain a constant temperature and maximum energy efficiency. 3. When the hot water tap is turned off the heating system also turns off. What you save when using a tankless heater: Your water heater is the second biggest consumer of energy in your home [after home heating]. Therefore it is where you can significantly reduce the costs of your annual energy consumption. Why keep a storage tank full of hot water 24 hours a day when the average household use is less than an hour everyday When water is heated in a tank the inside walls will soon begin to build up mineral deposits. The scale build up on the bottom of the tank can cause it to decrease in efficiency by as much as 50% over 10 years and the subsequent corrosion of the tank's inside wall will eventually cause it to leak. _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support _______________________________________________________ Product Features: •  A ll water parts are high quality copper and plastic •  U nit is constructed with stainless steel and aluminum •  C asing is finished with baked epoxy •  H eat exchanger is made of solid copper •  B urners are made of stainless steel •  U nit has a safety thermocouple and overheat shutoff protection •   CSA design certified •  C ompliant with ASHRAE 90.1 Manufacturer's Warranty: •  12 years on the heat exchanger when professionally installed • Proper product selection supported by customer service agent •  Proper operation supported by solar engineer tech assistance • Toll-Free help line and/or online e-mail tech support Product Benefits: • Endless hot water for the home or office •  Can reduce energy costs up to 50%   •  Never stores hot water [preventing rust and leaks] •  High energy factors [cuts greenhouse gas emissions up to 50% •  compared to storage tank]  •  Steady temperature at varying flow rates •  Small light and easy to install •  Hangs on wall - saving floor space •  Stores only cold water reducing the risk of bacteria growth •  Designed and built to last 20+ years •  82% efficient for life of the heater •  Natural gas/propane energy factor of .69-.84 [tanks .52-.62] •  Electric energy factor of .99  [tanks .80-.90]   Product Applications: •  Home or Office •  Shower and Bathtub •  Dishwasher and Washing Machine Product General Specifications: Water Inlet ½" NPT Gas Inlet Connection ½" NPT Minimum NG Line 3/4" Minimum LP Line 5/8" Dimensions 29¾"H x 18½"W x 8¾"D Recommended Min.

For instance the standard RA-28 model contains four 7000 watt elements for a total of 28 000 watts or 28 kilowatts (kW) of power. The two-chamber model RA-14 contains only two 7000 watt elements for a total power rating of 14 000 watts or 14 kilowatts (kW). However because of Seisco's "Power Sharing" technology the heater may not always use the maximum available power. The power output can vary with flow rate and temperature rise. Refer to the Product Specifications Table above for the maximum power ratings of each model. Heating Output:   The heating output of the Seisco is simply the total kilowatt power rating of the combined heating elements converted to BTUs using 3 413 BTU/kW. For instance the RA-28 has a total power rating of 28 kW or a 95 564 BTU heat output rating. The four-chamber models have the higher output ratings; 61 434 BTUs for the RA-18 model and 75 086 BTUs for the RA-22 model. The lower output two-chamber models are; 47 782 BTUs for the RA-14 37 543 BTUs for the RA-11 and 30 717 BTUs for the RA-9. These ratings vary with the operating voltage or service voltage to the heater. Refer to the Product Specifications Table for the BTU ratings of each model. Voltage Rating:   Seisco heaters are manufactured with common 240 volt [AC] heating elements designed for optimum operation on a standard residential 240 volt [AC] electric service. Also the Seisco will operate at 208 VAC a typical commercial voltage with standard 240 VAC heating elements. However when operating the heater at 208 VAC the power rating and the heat output rating is significantly reduced. Seisco models can be special ordered with 208 VAC heating elements to help maximize the power and heating output. Refer to the Product Specifications Table above for details on the various voltage ratings.   Maximum Current Rating: Each Seisco Model has a maximum electrical current rating [or amp rating] equivalent to the sum of the heating element ratings. For example a four-chamber model RA-28 operating at 240 VAC has four heating elements each with a maximum rating of 29 amps. The maximum current rating or total current rating of the RA-28 is therefore 116 amps or the sum of the four heating elements. However because of Seisco's "Power Modulating Technology" the actual current measured during relatively low flow rates and/or low temperature rises can be less than the maximum rating of the heater during operation. Refer to the A [max] or maximum amp rating under "Electrical" in the Product Specifications Table above for each model. Temperature Rise: The temperature rise must be determined in order to help choose the appropriate Seisco heater. The rise can be determined by knowing the input water temperature and the desired output temperature of the heater. The Seisco's output temperature is typically set for about 120 degrees F at the factory. Therefore if the input or cold water inlet temperature is 50 degrees F then the temperature rise is the difference or 70 degrees F. If the desired output temperature is 125 degrees F then the temperature rise would be 75 degrees F. With the temperature rise determined the Product Specification Table above provides the associated flow rate capacity of the various Seisco models. Flow Rates: The flow rate for each model is given in the "Temperature Rise" section of the Product Specification Table above. Along with the temperature rise the flow rate must also be determined in order to choose the appropriate Seisco heater. The flow rate is determined by the type of faucet and also life style. Refer to the chart below for typical faucet flow rates in the home. However if the desired life style in the home requires running multiple faucets at the same time then the flow rates must be added together to determine the peak flow demand. The Seisco or the possibility of multiple Seiscos should be selected to match the peak flow rate. Below are typical flow rates for new residential construction. There may be exceptions with new designer type fixtures and faucets. For instance large custom body spa showers whirl pool and Jacuzzi tubs may have faucets with flow rates ranging from 7 gpm to 14 gpm. However a combination of multiple Seisco heaters [preferably plumbed in a parallel configuration] can be installed to match these higher flow rates. The same peak design approach would be necessary for the anticipated life style of multiple flow rates occurring at the same time. Otherwise use the table below and match the Seisco according to the peak flow and associated temperature rise of a single tub or shower. Typical Flow Rates in Gallons per Minute [gpm] Fixture Type Lavatory Bathtub Shower Kitchen Sink Pantry Sink Laundry Sink Dish-washer Flow Rates 0.8 - 1.5 2.0 - 4.0 1.5 - 3.0 1.0 - 1.5 1.5 - 2.5 2.5 - 3.0 2.0 - 3.0 Product Descriptions and Specifications PDF Format Selection Criteria Applications and Diagrams PDF Format In the above document you will find: Selection Criteria • Basic information needed for selecting the proper Seisco model Residential Floor Plan Diagrams • Standard One Story Home Options • Standard Two Story Home Options • One Story – Booster for Quicker Response Application Diagrams: • General Residential - Whole House • Booster Retro-fit for Existing Storage Tank • High Flow or Large Demand Configuration • Circulating System Arrangement • Space Heating – Radiant Floor or Hydronic Heating System • Space Heating – Indoor Hydro Heating or Heat Pump System • Passive Heating – Combined with Indoor Storage Tank • Solar Backup – Combined with Solar Heated Storage Tank • Geothermal Backup – Combined with De-Super Heater Electrical Guide PDF Format In the above document you will find: • Introduction to SEISCO Electrical Requirements • National Electric Code Rules – Load Calculations • Sample Residential Load Calculations • National Electric Code Rules - Branch Circuit Protection • SEISCO Electrical Wiring & Breaker Guides • Single and Three Phase Wiring Diagrams Installation Instructions A.

The Energy SuperMarket's most innovative product the breakthrough concept of HeatSavr™ Liquid earns a 5 star plus rating in our Consumer Value guide! And... The Energy SuperMarket offers the lowest on-line factory direct pricing now available! Guaranteed . HeatSavr™ Liquid  is an excellent and effortless alternative to conventional solar blankets. Effectively used for over 8 years by commercial pool operators to increase profitability the unique HeatSavr™ liquid has only recently been made available in bulk form for the residential pool owner. 4-Gallon HeatSavr™ Case...  the easiest  most effective way to save energy costs  plus 50% over the cost-per-single-gallon!!! Each case includes four gallon containers holding 140 ounces each of the HeatSavr™ Liquid a total of 560 oz. per case. _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering unit sizing support • Online e-mail technical and installation support • Brand and cost-of-operation comparisons _______________________________________________________ Explanation of the HeatSavr™ Liquid's Function: HeatSavr™ performs much like a conventional solar blanket but... eliminates the hassle of constantly removing and replacing of heavy awkward space consuming pool blankets. • Innovation – The patent protected HeatSavr™ is based on  the combination of two technologically advanced scientific formulas; a mono-molecular film-forming liquid and evaporation inhibitors. Designed to be lighter than water it automatically floats on top of  the pool's surface and forms an invisible microscopically thin but dynamically resistant barrier to escaping water vapor and heat. HeatSavr™ works by significantly slowing evaporation from the surface of a swimming pool - both indoor and outdoor pools! • Evaporation Heat Loss – When the pool water is warmer than the air around it or the air has lower than 100% humidity the pool rapidly evaporates water into the air. Large amounts of pool water along with its heat are literally blowing away from outdoor pools especially during windy periods and overnight - or being exhausted by the air conditioning system of an indoor pool. Heating pool water requires a major investment of energy and costs. And heat loss due to evaporation consumes up to 90% of the cost of keeping pool water warm enough to enjoy. HeatSavr™ Liquid significantly reduces that loss and therefore the financial cost of keeping a pool warm - as well as dramatically lowering the humidity of indoor pool areas. It does this by forming a totally safe invisible layer only one or two molecules thick on the surface of the pool! These molecules are naturally attracted to each other and always seek to form a perfect microscopically thin layer that covers the entire pool surface. As a comparison the individual HeatSavr™ molecules are 500 times smaller than the spaces found in a super high quality water filter. After a swimmer stops disturbing the water's surface the molecules immediately reform a cohesive layer. Most importantly - when they reform into a layer they reduce the evaporation speed of the pool by up to one half. •   Energy Savings – HeatSavr™ theoretically saves up to 50% of the energy costs to heat a pool - if no one ever swam in the pool and if the circulation pump were turned off. As this is unrealistic a more accurate performance expectation would be achieving savings as high as 40% with the additional bonus savings achieved through major reductions in water replacement due to evaporation loss. Most pool owners will find average energy cost reductions range between 17% and 30%. For every dollar spent on HeatSavr™ expect a minimum of two dollars in energy savings. Depending on the size of pool HeatSavr™ can yield large cost savings! HeatSavr™ will save energy in every pool - but heat cost savings will also vary according to the hours of swimmer use per day ventilation efficiency and especially the type and cost of fuel used as the cost of energy also varies from region to region. Tests have proven that energy savings range from a low of 15.5% at a high use 50 meter municipal pool to a maximum of 40% at a low use condominium pool. • Heath and Safety Assurances – All HeatSavr™ liquid ingredients have been thoroughly tested and proven completely safe for human contact leave no after-swim residue and is comprised of harmless non-hazardous elements. HeatSavr™ has been in use for over 8 years and maintains a proven track record in commercial use. HeatSavr™ is filter friendly does not affect the chemical balance [PH chlorine alkalinity etc.] of the water and will not damage vinyl liners or any other pool surfaces  plus it is absolutely harmless to skin or eye contact even in infants. HeatSavr™ is totally organic and biodegrade and after its time-span of effectiveness is achieved it quickly breaks down into harmless byproducts. Best of all... Swimmers in the pool will not even know HeatSavr™ is in use! _______________________________________________________ READ » Effectiveness Test Results • Savings from some Heatsavr current users • Evaporation Case Study READ » Safety Tests and Data • NSF Evaluation of Heatsavr Toxicology • Hyatt Island California Toxicology Report • Material Safety Data INFO » Energy Cost Savings and ROI • Download ROI [Return on Investement] • to calculate how much you can save!  _______________________________________________________ Commercial Use by Professional Pool Operators: Pool managers purchase HeatSavr™ in bulk for a variety of reasons. Significant savings on their energy bills is the single biggest factor! HeatSavr™'s ease of use without loss of energy savings is also very attractive to professional operators. Those who are already using a pool blanket find that while there are energy savings there are also inconveniences and that their staff are not motivated to use the blankets correctly and consistently. The professionals who operate indoor pools are most interested in reducing the humidity levels in their pool rooms and don't mind receiving the energy savings as a bonus. Note: The pure liquid form of HeatSavr™ is available in bulk supply for mid-to-large size applications - by the  gallon or case . _______________________________________________________ Product Instructional Information: • For best results HeatSavr™ should be applied once at the end of the pool-use day. • Add HeatSavr™ directly to residential pool water at a ratio of 4 ounces per 1500 sq ft of pool surface area [width x length] daily or add 1 ounce per 400 sq ft daily for commercial pools. • Bulk containers of HeatSavr™ may be stored for long periods of time without product losing strength. Avoid storing below 65 degrees F / 18 C. If white residue forms at the bottom simply immerse bottle in warm water until residue disappears. Note: In concentrated form HeatSavr™ could accidentally become flammable if directly exposed to an open flame and should be stored safely. If accidental eye contact with the concentrated form occurs flush with water for 15 minutes and contact a physician.  Helpful Q & A Information regarding HeatSavr™ use: Q: Can people swim while HeatSavr™ is in use A: Yes. HeatSavr™ has been designed to be in use 24 hours per day. This gives HeatSavr™ a distinct advantage over standard pool blankets. Q: Can HeatSavr™ be used along with a standard pool blanket A: Yes.

It works in conjunction with the FloVerter 12VAC valve or with other manufacturer's 12VAC valves. The FloVerter valve controls pool water circulation by the pool's filtration pump - either through the solar collectors or bypassing the solar collectors. The HM4000D has the additional feature of being able to be used with either 12 or 24 volt valves. Specific Applications: Designed for both residential and light - duty commercial pools in the small to mid-size pool heating range when the HelioMatic controller only needs a FloVerter Valve or if a maintenance change-out or upgrade is required. Note: The unit has a front panel switch which provides for nocturnal pool cooling instead of heating. Cooling is used in conjunction with the pool's filtration pump being allowed to run during cooler hours of early dawn. HM5000D / Upgrade Price Controller  The HM5000D is identical to the 4000D except that in addition to operating either a 12 or 24 volt valve the HM5000D will also operate a separate pump that is dedicated to solar circulation only. The pump can be sized up to 1HP with 120VAC and 2HP with 240VAC. Another unique feature of the HM5000D is a built in time delay* for use during pool sweep. This feature prevents pool sweep malfunction due to the introduction of air into its pumped line. When the HM5000D calls for solar heat pick up the valve will immediately activate. There is an approx. 8 minute delay before the pump turns on. Specific Applications: Designed for both residential and medium - duty commercial pools in the small to mid-size pool heating range when the HelioMatic controller requires a FloVerter Valve and when operation of a separate pump that is dedicated to solar circulation is also required. Note: When using a valve system only the pool sweep pump may be wired to the HM5000D output [must be the same voltage as the pool filtration pump]. This method of pool sweep hook up will allow the pool sweep to operate only when the solar collection is taking place and the piping system will be purged of any air. *This function can be disabled.  VIEW » Technical Specifications: HM4000 and HM5000 Controls   ____________________________________________________  3-Way FloVerter Motorized Valve Model: FV-2.0 The FloVerter 12VAC valve works in conjunction with either HelioMatic electronic controller model. When the controller is signaled by the sensors and calls for solar heat pick-up the FloVerter valve immediately activates. The opening "diverter" valve then directs the flow of circulation through the solar collectors using the pool's filtration pump. The FloVerter valve is a 12VAC 2" valve   utilizes permanent magnetic synchronous motors and has an extremely low CV.*  Technical Specifications: The FloVerter is a non-positive seal valve with a small hole located in the diverter which allows the collector to drain when the system is turned off. This draining prevents collector damage due to cold weather freeze-ups. FloVerter's Unique Features: •  Low profile design utilizes two synchronous motors to direct flow  •  Constructed using twin O-Rings that provide superior service •  Diverter designed with curved and fluted channel for reduced pressure  •  Unibody valve/actuator require no assembly; actuator easily replaced  •  Manual control over-ride always available using sure-grip handle  • Color-coded wire terminals make connecting to controller a breeze! • Non-positive seal for freeze protection; positive seal available • The FloVerter never needs lubrication and may be mounted in any • position except upside down Note: For a positive solar shutdown or service to collectors during pump operation cycle an isolation ball or gate valve must be used on the feed line for positive shut off. *The extremely low C onstant V elocity factor is due to the unique curved and directed flow channel inside the diverter.  [For additional information see FloVerter Technical Notes below] ____________________________________________________  Pool Water Sensor Model: IS-1.0-10K       The IS-1.0 sensor is constructed entirely of solid stainless steel inserted into a drilled hole in the 1 1/2" or 2" plumbing pipe   and easily and quickly fastened  in place using a stainless steel hose clamp. It is then wired into the system and signals the controller unit with readings on the pool water temperature. The sensor seals to the pipe with a long-lasting O-ring. Technical Specifications: The extra durability the virtually indestructible stainless steel sensor brings to the system truly  guarantees years of corrosion resistant performance.  ____________________________________________________  Solar Roof Sensor Model: AS2-10K   The AS-2-10 is an all-aluminum sensor block designed to both quickly and precisely determine solar radiation [sun's rays] and then simulate the internal water temperature of the collector panels caused by the solar absorption.  The sensor instantly signals the controller unit which sends the required command to the 3-Way FloVerter Valve. Technical Specifications:  The greater surface area of the AS-2-10 combined with the superior conductivity characteristics  of aluminum enable the sensor to detect the sun's rays sooner   plus detect when the right amount of solar energy is available. It also reacts to cloudy conditions and the setting sun more rapidly than other sensors on the market today thus creating greater heat flow precisely during the critical "solar window" period and avoiding heat loss by not circulating when heat could be lost through reverse process - resulting in a much warmer pool and a longer more pleasurable swimming experience! ____________________________________________________       HELP »  Contact Customer Support        • Toll-Free help line offering unit selection and sizing support      • Online e-mail technical and installation support ____________________________________________________  The HelioMatic Package assures unsurpassed performance from your solar-heated pool! Proven in thousands of installations both residential and commercial applications  Heliotrope’s reputation for and insistence on total quality and function down to the smallest system component has resulted in unprecedented user satisfaction for over a quarter of a century. And by choosing solar heating it shows concern for the earth’s resources now and for generations to come. So make the most of your pool’s solar heating system. . . Make the choice of U.S. Olympic engineers - The HelioMatic Control System from Heliotrope for years of unsurpassed swimming pleasure!!!  ____________________________________________________      • Why Solar Controls dramatically enhance performance A Solar Control Unit needs to be included as an integral component of any solar system on an inground pool or large above ground pool.  Solar Controls are essential for maximizing the solar performance of any pool solar systems - even if the geographical location is in a consistently high solar effectiveness area.  By accurately monitoring the available solar radiation and  the pool's temperature  a Solar Control Unit directs the solar system to function only when it can add heat to the pool resulting in capturing the most solar/cost savings benefit out of any solar system.  Solar Controls also offer the additional benefit of thermostatic control so the temperature can simply be set and effortlessly maintained.  Just set it and forget it!  Using a Solar Control assures high-limit protection restricting the solar system from heating the pool/spa beyond the set temperature a nice safety precaution! The GL-235 Control is designed not to let pool/spa water exceed 102°F unlikely for a pool but very possible for a spa.  The GL-235's thermostatic control can also be operated at night to cool the pool if it is in an area where pools become too warm from the sun on their own during the summer season.  ____________________________________________________      • Logic of necessity for Solar Pool Control Package Pools heated by solar energy need to have an accurate controller for two primary reasons. Initially it is vital for proper performance to maximize the utilization of the solar heat available by circulating water through the collectors when solar rays can be absorbed - and not circulating when heat could be lost through reverse process. The second reason for an accurate controller is to allow the pool owner/operator to automatically adjust and maintain the maximum temperature desired. This turn-key controller package is designed for a straightforward installation dependable operation and easy serviceability.  A solar pool heating system can dramatically reduce or eliminate the rising monthly gas or electric power costs by heating your pool with free abundant energy from the sun. Several recent studies using sophisticated monitored sites provided data that proved automatic controls were definitely beneficial. And installing a Goldline do-it-yourself package results in an immediate and dramatic reduction or elimination of pool heating costs! ____________________________________________________ Function:  HelioMatic Package controls entire solar pool heating system Benefits: Maximizes your swimming pleasure!

Next determine the Actuator's proper orientation in relationship to the Valve's directional flow [per instruction manual]. Remove the four screws from the Valve body. Align the Actuator spline with the Valve spline and push the Actuator onto the Valve spline. Use the four extra-long screws [included] to bolt the Actuator to the Valve where the four standard screws were removed.  3 . Place the Valve's Handle onto the Actuator spline and re-insert the thumb-screw turning clock-wise. The assembled units should resemble the image below. Note: The Valve could be in any one of three possible positions in  relationship to the Actuator depending on the exact application. The diagram below shows a line drawing of the Actuator from a top view [left] and a side view [right] - with arrows indicating the four holes used in attaching the Actuator to the Valve. The diagram below shows a line drawing of the assembled units; on top is the Handle retained on the shaft with the thumb-screw.  Next is the Actuator  and underneath is the Valve  joined together using a screwdriver with the four extra-long screws provided. ____________________________________________________  Goldline Universal Pool Water or Roof Sensor Model PC-10k The Goldline PC-10k Sensor can be used with any solar control unit that requires 10k sensors.  This sensor has universal applications;  it can be used to measure solar heat on the roof and also be used to measure temperature of the pool's water.  When used on the roof it is placed in direct sunlight and mounted to the roof with a screw or adhesive. When used to measure pool water temperature it is easily and quickly attached to the PVC pipe of the existing system.

Goldline Controls previously known as Independent Energy   has been the control industry leader since 1975 . Since its inception Goldline has produced in excess of 2 500 000 electronic controls. Every control is conceived designed developed and manufactured in-house. Goldline has pioneered all of the advances that make automatic control of solar heating systems easy accurate and reliable.   The Goldline name is recognized the world over for superior quality performance and reliability. Every control manufactured goes through a series of multiple inspections and tests to ensure its integrity. Goldline has been awarded numerous product and design patents in recognition of the many unique progressive and evolutionary products produced and is UL Listed for safety and performance. Goldline Controls is proud to note that due to the reliability and performance of its products it is the predominate supplier of product into the solar pool heating market earning 70%+ market share of the solar pool heating market! ____________________________________________________      • Why Solar Controls dramatically enhance performance A Solar Control Unit needs to be included as an integral component of any solar system on an inground pool or large above ground pool.  Solar Controls are essential for maximizing the solar performance of any pool solar systems - even if the geographical location is in a consistently high solar effectiveness area.  By accurately monitoring the available solar radiation and  the pool's temperature  a Solar Control Unit directs the solar system to function only when it can add heat to the pool resulting in capturing the most solar/cost savings benefit out of any solar system.  Solar Controls also offer the additional benefit of thermostatic control so the temperature can simply be set and effortlessly maintained.  Just set it and forget it!  Using a Solar Control assures high-limit protection restricting the solar system from heating the pool/spa beyond the set temperature a nice safety precaution! The GL-235 Control is designed not to let pool/spa water exceed 102°F unlikely for a pool but very possible for a spa.  The GL-235's thermostatic control can also be operated at night to cool the pool if it is in an area where pools become too warm from the sun on their own during the summer season.  ____________________________________________________      • Logic of necessity for Solar Pool Control Package Pools heated by solar energy need to have an accurate controller for two primary reasons. Initially it is vital for proper performance to maximize the utilization of the solar heat available by circulating water through the collectors when solar rays can be absorbed - and not circulating when heat could be lost through reverse process. The second reason for an accurate controller is to allow the pool owner/operator to automatically adjust and maintain the maximum temperature desired. This turn-key controller package is designed for a straightforward installation dependable operation and easy serviceability.  A solar pool heating system can dramatically reduce or eliminate the rising monthly gas or electric power costs by heating your pool with free abundant energy from the sun. Several recent studies using sophisticated monitored sites provided data that proved automatic controls were definitely beneficial. And installing a Goldline do-it-yourself package results in an immediate and dramatic reduction or elimination of pool heating costs! ____________________________________________________  Function:  Goldline Package controls entire solar pool heating system Benefits: Maximizes your swimming pleasure!

It works in conjunction with the Goldline/Jandy 3-Way 12VAC Valve and Actuator model JVA-PKG or with other manufacturer's 12VAC valves. This unit has the additional feature of  being used with 12 or 24 volt valves. The Goldline/Jandy valve controls pool water circulation by the pool's filtration pump - either through the solar collectors or bypassing the solar collectors. Specific Applications: Designed for both residential and light - duty commercial pools in the small to mid-size pool heating range when the GL-235 LV controller only needs a Goldline/Jandy Valve or if a maintenance change-out or upgrade is required. Note: The unit has a front panel switch which provides for nocturnal pool cooling instead of heating. Cooling is used in conjunction with the pool's filtration pump being allowed to run during the early dawn cooler hours. Installation Note: The GL-235 is designed for outdoor use. For safety the GL-235 must be a minimum of 5 feet horizontally from pool or spa. GL-235 LV/HV Model The GL-235 LV/HV is identical to the GL-235 LV except that in addition to operating either a 12 or 24 volt valve the GL-235 LV/HV will also operate a separate pump that is dedicated to solar circulation only. The pump can be sized up to 1HP with 120VAC and 2HP with 240VAC. The GL-235 LV/HV model has one low-voltage output for controlling a single valve and a second high voltage output for controlling a filter pump or solar booster pump. Specific Applications: Designed for both residential and medium - duty commercial pools in the small to mid-size pool heating range when the GL-235 LV/HV controller needs a Goldline/Jandy Valve plus operate a separate pump that is dedicated to solar circulation only. ____________________________________________________  The GL-235 Goldline Series –  Operational Details:  • Automatic Heating If the water within the collectors is warmer than the pool water by 4 degrees or more and the pool is below the selected desired temperature the valve will rotate allowing heat collection. The heat collection will stop when the solar sensor output falls to within 1.5 degrees of the pool temperature or the pool temperature exeeds the "desired temperature" set on dial. • Automatic Nocturnal Cooling   [Field selectable option] Swimming pools often become too warm from the sun on their own during the heigth of the summer season. The GL-235 comes standard with nocturnal cooling logic which can be enabled/disabled via the main circuit board. During nighttime hours when enabled the GL-235 will circulate warmer water from the pool to collector panels thus cooling the pool over time. If the water within the collectors is cooler than the pool water by 6 degrees or more and the pool is above the selected desired temperature the valve will rotate allowing cooling via the collectors. The heat dissipation will stop when the collectors sensor output rises within 3 degrees of the pool temperature or the pool temperature is lowered below the set desired temperature. • Setting Desired Temperature The GL-235 logic is set by a single dial adjustment with the desired pool/spa temperatures clearly indicated. The dial is calibrated with the temperatures from 70 degrees to a high of 104 degrees for quick and easy user-friendly operation. The temperature set indicates set pool/spa temperature and the GL-235 will automatically determine if the water should be solar heated or cooled thus maximizing the system capabilities. • Terminal Connections For input power and sensor inputs; controls also have industry standard 3 pin connectors for both forward and reverse valve actuator operation and screw terminal connectors. • LED Digital Indicators Show the status of the system operation; four highly visible LED’s show:   1. Power to the control   2. Power output directing valves and/or pump to collect heat     3. Power output directing valves and/or pump to dissipate heat   4. Sensor fault indicator shows sensor(s) not operating properly • GL-235 Valve Electrical Ouput Rating is the industry standard 24VAC. A jumper switches the output to 12VAC for compatibility with older valve actuators. Output is fuse protected. • Freeze Protection   [Field selectable operation] Turns the GL-235 recirculation output ON directing warmer pool/spa water through the collectors when near freezing temperatures are reached at the collector sensor. The GL-235 will allow recirculation when the collector temperature rises to 42 degrees. Two 10K Ohm sensors are required for operation. One or more freeze snap switches are recommended if freeze recirculation protection is utilized. Note: see installation instructions before using Recirculation Freeze • System Test Switch Allows the user to manually override the automatic function of the GL-235 and verify operation. ____________________________________________________  Installation Technical/Operational Details: • Both models GL-235-LV and GL-235-LV/HV control a single valve. • In most applications this is the solar valve which diverts water through • the solar collector panels or through the normal pool loop depending • on conditions. • Both GL-235-LV and GL-235-LV/HV units are shipped with the output • voltage set to the industry standard 24VAC. • For older systems with 12VAC valves an internal jumper can be • moved to select 12 VAC output operation. • The GL-235 provides two different types of connections to the • pool/spa actuators. When used with newer actuators manufacturered • by Goldline Compool Hayward and Jandy that come standard with • wire end connectors two 3-pin connectors are supplied. For older • actuators with no wire end connector a 3 position terminal block • is supplied. ____________________________________________________       HELP »  Contact Customer Support        • Toll-Free help line offering unit selection and sizing support      • Online e-mail technical and installation support ____________________________________________________       • Goldline is clearly recognized as the world leader!

The sensor is placed in direct sunlight and mounted to the roof using a screw or adhesive. The sensor instantly signals the controller unit which sends the required command to the 3-Way FloVerter Valve. The greater surface area of the AS-2-10 combined with the superior conductivity characteristics of aluminum enable the sensor to detect the sun's rays sooner plus detect when the right amount of solar energy is available. It also reacts to cloudy conditions and the setting sun more rapidly than other sensors on the market today thus creating greater heat flow precisely during the critical "solar window" period and avoiding heat loss by not circulating when heat could be lost through reverse process - resulting in a much warmer pool and a longer more pleasurable swimming experience! Product Benefits: •  Maximizes pool temperature     Product Applications: • Used to measure solar heat on roof   • Used in conjunction with the Heliotrope HelioMatic Solar Pool • Control Unit  - Model: HM Series  • Used as a replacement for the Heliotrope HelioMatic Solar Pool • Control Package #1 - Model: HM-PKG •  Can be used with any Solar Control unit that requires 10K sensors Product Features: •  All aluminum sensor block for superior conductivity •  One year factory warranty Product Manufacturer: Heliotrope Pool Product Installation Instructions: Install black aluminum sensor where it will receive sunlight similar to the solar collectors.  Use a cable clamp and TEK screw to mount [not included].  The cable clamp serves as a strain relief for the cable wires. Install stainless steel drill-in sensor into 1-1/2” or 2” pipe to sense pool water temperature.  Drill 5/16” diameter hole into pipe and install by using stainless steel clamp.  Wires go through the hole punched into the clamp.  This sensor goes into pipe ahead of the solar collector usually near the pump. Use 3M Scotchlok connectors [part number UY-2] for connecting the sensor leads to your interconnecting cable.  Tie a knot with the cable wires and the sensor leads to function as a strain relief. Wire ends must not be stripped.  Insert the insulated wire ends into the UY-2 and with pliers press the round disc into place locking the connection.  Note that UY-2 is an improved connector over the UY because it makes a double contact with the wires and also accommodates larger wires. _______________________________________________________ Solar Sensor application trouble-shooting tips: All GoldLine controls including GL35 AquaSol and GL235 series and all Heliomatic HM Series controls and most other brands incorporate the use of 10k sensors. Some other lesser known brands used 3k sensors.

Goldline Controls previously known as Independent Energy   has been the control industry leader since 1975 . Since its inception Goldline has produced in excess of 2 500 000 electronic controls. Every control is conceived designed developed and manufactured in-house. Goldline has pioneered all of the advances that make automatic control of solar heating systems easy accurate and reliable.   The Goldline name is recognized the world over for superior quality performance and reliability. Every control manufactured goes through a series of multiple inspections and tests to ensure its integrity. Goldline has been awarded numerous product and design patents in recognition of the many unique progressive and evolutionary products produced and is UL Listed for safety and performance. Goldline Controls is proud to note that due to the reliability and performance of its products it is the predominate supplier of product into the solar pool heating market earning 70%+ market share of the solar pool heating market! ____________________________________________________      • Why Solar Controls dramatically enhance performance A Solar Control Unit needs to be included as an integral component of any solar system on an inground pool or large above ground pool.  Solar Controls are essential for maximizing the solar performance of any pool solar systems - even if the geographical location is in a consistently high solar effectiveness area.  By accurately monitoring the available solar radiation and  the pool's temperature  a Solar Control Unit directs the solar system to function only when it can add heat to the pool resulting in capturing the most solar/cost savings benefit out of any solar system.  Solar Controls also offer the additional benefit of thermostatic control so the temperature can simply be set and effortlessly maintained.  Just set it and forget it!  Using a Solar Control assures high-limit protection restricting the solar system from heating the pool/spa beyond the set temperature a nice safety precaution! The GL-235 Control is designed not to let pool/spa water exceed 102°F unlikely for a pool but very possible for a spa.  The Aqua Solar thermostatic control can also be operated at night to cool the pool if it is in an area where pools become too warm from the sun on their own during the summer season.  ____________________________________________________      • Logic of necessity for Solar Pool Control Package Pools heated by solar energy need to have an accurate controller for two primary reasons. Initially it is vital for proper performance to maximize the utilization of the solar heat available by circulating water through the collectors when solar rays can be absorbed - and not circulating when heat could be lost through reverse process. The second reason for an accurate controller is to allow the pool owner/operator to automatically adjust and maintain the maximum temperature desired. This turn-key controller package is designed for a straightforward installation dependable operation and easy serviceability.  A solar pool heating system can dramatically reduce or eliminate the rising monthly gas or electric power costs by heating your pool with free abundant energy from the sun. Several recent studies using sophisticated monitored sites provided data that proved automatic controls were definitely beneficial.

An accumulation of these contaminants will tend to cloud the water therefore a small trace amount of chlorine or other oxidizers is necessary to dissolve them to maintain crystal clear conditions. Other oxidizers that may be substituted are bromine hydrogen peroxide or oxygen based compounds which are readily available at most pool supply stores.  _______________________________________________________ HELPFUL Q & A – Specific Information * regarding use : Q:  How much chlorine or other oxidizers are necessary after the pool water is fully ionized A: Only a trace amount [approx. 0.5 - barely detectable on a chlorine test kit] should be maintained to burn off contaminants. Q:  Will other chemicals such as algaecide clarifier stabilizer etc. be necessary  or will shock treatment be required A: Using the floatron allows the PH level to stabilize. No other chemicals are recommended and your pool will not need to be shocked. The floatron works perfectly with trace chlorine only.  Q:  Will chlorine or other oxidizers still need to be added daily A: Only once per week or if the pool begins to cloud add  a very small amount of chlorine. An easy way to pro-actively control the accumulation of contaminants is to maintain a trace level of chlorine is to leave one tablet in the skimmer basket. Q:  How does floatron affect pool pump operation A:  Operate pump and filter system during daylight hours when  floatron is generating ions. This will allow proper mixing and circulation of the minerals. Pump operation is unnecessary and optional at night and the unit can be left in the pool overnight. Q:  Does any unit ever required maintenance A: The only part requiring replacement is the sacrificial mineral electrode which will last approximately 1- 3 swimming seasons and takes only minutes to change. Replacement cost is minimal with the approximate cost of the replacement electrode - $75.00 The floatron requires the weekly washing of electrodes - residue is excellent fertilizer on shrubs or lawn.  * Complete start-up and operating instructions included. _______________________________________________________ HELPFUL Q & A – General Information regarding  function :  Q:  If floatrons work so well  why aren't they for sale in every pool store nation-wide  A: Since the floatron's natural ionization purification process drastically reduces chemical sales and are a one-time purchase most pool stores are reluctant to offer them. The motive... profit .  floatron is the least expensive most effective way to purify pool water available today and selling floatrons to customers would dramatically reduce their high-profit chemical sales. Q:  How does floatron compare to other brands of ionizers  A:  floatron is a finely tuned device which introduces ions slowly and steadily into the water. This constant trickle allows water to accept and react completely with the minerals. This is technically superior to any other ionizer in the world all of which generate large amounts of mineral ions in a short period of time. Not only are these expensive units overpowered and bulky they require professional installation and servicing. Additionally complex electronic controllers can add to their unreliability and cost. Compactness and portability are unique to floatron. Q: How does the floatron actually purify pool water A: As atoms of the floatron's special mineral electrode are ionized they scatter throughout the water. These mineral ions exert a fatal influence on microscopic life forms. Experimentation by the University of Arizona proves that mineral ions in conjunction with trace chlorine are 1 000 times more effective against algae than chlorine alone. Once these minerals are dissolved into water they remain for extended periods. Similar to salt in the ocean ions do not evaporate even under extreme hot conditions. Chlorine however is a very light element which tends to evaporate rapidly especially in hot weather. This being the reason for larger chlorine doses in summer. Q: What is scientific basis for Ionization A: Ionization is the taking apart of a material atom by atom. This process occurs in nature at all levels and is how water accumulates trace minerals which help maintain its purity. Water purification by ionization has been practiced for thousands of years. By storing water in copper and silver containers ancient Romans kept it fresh and free from algae and bacteria.  In floatron a small electrical current supplied by a solar panel energizes the electrodes creating the electrochemical reaction. Q:  How important is eliminating Chlorine use A: Sydney Australia won the Olympic bid with the promise of  "chlorine-free" Games. As a result the Homebush Aquatic Centre [the Olympic swimming venue] had ozone systems installed which  were very expensive to install and costly to operate just so the athletes would not have to swim in heavily chlorinated water. Q: But are the minerals generated from floatron safe A: The recommended concentration is about 1/3 the amount allowed by the American EPA for drinking water. Essentially safe enough to drink ! Q: What is the service life of the floatron A: This product is designed to last about as long as your pool!!! The solar photovoltaic panel does not wear out. The sacrificial mineral electrode can be replaced as many times as necessary over the years. Q: Does the floatron stay in the water all the time A: 15 000 gallons and larger probably most or all of the time [depending on local conditions]. Smaller pools part-time floating [e.g. few days in few days out]. See instructions for full details. Swimming while the floatron in the water is perfectly safe. It only measures 12 inches in diameter so goes virtually unnoticed in a pool. Customer chooses whether to tether it or let it free-float. Q: What if the pool is covered A: Simply fold back a corner of the cover or cut a small cross to sit the electrode through. The floatron works the same whether it is stationary or free-floating.  Q: Will floatron work in a "freshwater" pool that already has a "saltwater" chlorine generator A: Yes! Just use a lower setting on the saltwater chlorine generator. Q: Will floatron work in a "saltwater" pool A: Yes! It works the same as when used in a "freshwater" pool.   Q: Is the floatron safe and effective for ponds and fish   A: The floatron works well in all pond environment provided circulation exists to mix the ions thorough the body of water. The low concentration of minerals has proven to be completely compatible with all well known varieties of fish.  Q: Is the floatron effective for pools/spas inside glass atriums   A: No the floatron doesn’t work through glass. Compare Floatron to other types of Purifiers _______________________________________________________ * GreenPeace - Excerpts from Environmental Study on Chlorine  Disturbing recent studies show that chlorinated organics block the body’s natural hormones especially the female hormone estrogen.

The probiotics live enzymes and alkalinizing minerals naturally occurring in goat's milk whey along with organic vegetable juice concentrates and our powerful Stomach™ Soothe Enzyme Blend produce a soothing effect help maintain a balanced pH and promote the growth of healthy flora throughout the intestines. How does alkalinizing reduce my heartburn and other digestive symptoms Dietary salt/sodium is alkaline by nature and can be useful in the digestive process to break down foods and perform a wide variety of metabolic functions. When your body becomes too acidic it compensates by pulling alkaline salts into the bloodstream. Since the body can tolerate only a slight imbalance in blood pH it can rob precious alkaline reserves from the digestive tract in an attempt to restore the proper pH balance. This can result in heartburn digestive distress stomach upset fatigue and other uncomfortable symptoms. Commercial antacid products alleviate symptoms by blocking the production of acid which can produce unwanted side effects. The ingredients in Acid Defense supplement however contain naturally occurring alkalinizing components that reestablish a balanced healthy system-wide pH. Acid Defense is safe for daily usage with no known side effects. Why does this formula include sodium and potassium If it were not for sodium making the tissue in your stomach highly alkaline the lining would be destroyed by the hydrochloric acid normally produced there. The stomach intestines joints and ligaments are in constant need of natural food-source sodium like that found in Acid Defense. Potassium neutralizes acid waste and in combination with sodium maintains a healthy acid/alkaline balance. Potassium and sodium are almost always found together in the body and perform many of the same functions. How do I use Acid Defense to prevent heartburn Simply take one heaping tablespoon mixed with eight ounces of water or juice before bed or whenever symptoms occur. What makes your Acid Defense supplement better than other acid relief formulas Every day millions of people reach for commercial antacids and the growing number of over-the-counter options for acid reflux. Many of these products try to address acid reflux symptoms by reducing the production of stomach acids. Stomach acids are critical for proper digestion however especially of calcium. Many commercial antacids also contain toxic ingredients such as aluminum and artificial colors and sweeteners. These chemicals not only disrupt digestion but they also alter the structure and function of stomach lining cells and cause side effects like headache diarrhea and abdominal pain. The worse effect despite the temporary relief is that antacids exacerbate the underlying cause of acid reflux and one of its most annoying symptoms. By neutralizing what little acid the stomach may produce the stomach acid insufficiency is made worse. Then in a desperate attempt to correct the problem the stomach occasionally produces a surge of too much acid causing the uncomfortable burning sensation. Acid Defense on the other hand contains alkalinizing components that help soothe the stomach and reduce acid indigestion naturally. Acid Defense supplement is safe for daily usage with no known side effects.

Among the most prolific organisms on the planet it is impossible to keep out of the body but it does little harm when balanced by beneficial microorganisms or probiotics. However when the immune system is compromised or friendly bacteria are killed by taking antibiotics candida can grow unrestrained and produce infections that can last for years. To help keep candida in check anti-fungal medications or probiotics should be taken whenever antibiotics are used. What are HSO blends and why do I need them to fight fungal infections Homeostatic Soil Organism blends (HSOs) are highly stable beneficial probiotic microorganisms. Impervious to stomach acids they crowd out pathogens and aggressively consume yeasts fungi and bad bacteria in the intestines. Healthy people usually have a balance of approximately 85% good and 15% harmful organisms in the intestinal tract. Most of us however have the opposite ratio as a result of daily exposure to our environment and even certain habits considered healthy. Taking antibiotics drinking chlorinated water and using antibacterial soap for example often kill the good bacteria essential for health. The HSOs in Fungal Defense supplement help restore the system-wide balance of good and bad bacteria to boost the immune system. How can I prevent candida from recurring The powerful ingredients in Fungal Defense are specifically targeted to destroy yeast and other fungi to restore a balanced healthy internal environment. To prevent re-infection and maintain a properly balanced system you should reduce or in some cases eliminate sweets; carbohydrates such as bread pasta muffins and glutenous grains; alcohol; vinegar; fruits and aged cheeses from your diet. Sugars and carbohydrates in particular feed yeast which thrives in sugary environments and causes cravings for those foods to increase.  Should I use Fungal Defense® and Primal Defense™ supplements together N o. Begin with a 14-day Fungal Defense program as directed on the product label before starting to use Primal Defense products.   What makes your Fungal Defense formula better than other anti-fungal formulas Our Fungal Defense is the only anti-fungal formula on the market containing Homeostatic Soil Organism compounds (HSOs)—among nature's most powerful weapons against candida viruses and fungi.

Healthy human intestines contain billions of microorganisms—both good and bad. The good bacteria in the intestine are considered an integral part of your immune system. Probiotics provide good bacteria that synthesize the B-complex vitamins and crowd out yeast and parasites. Many people are unaware that daily exposure to our environment and even certain habits considered healthy—taking antibiotics drinking chlorinated water using antibacterial soap—often kill these good bacteria essential for health. What are HSO blends and how do they work HSOs or Homeostatic Soil Organism blends are super probiotics available in Primal Defense supplement. Upon being swallowed the HSO compounds activate and restore the gut's balance by attaching themselves to the intestinal wall. On the intestinal wall they reproduce to form colonies where harmful bacteria and other pathological microorganisms live. Once established the HSO compounds quickly begin crowding out pathogens and producing the proper environment for nutrient absorption reinstating a balanced pH. Once established HSOs improve your body's functions in a number of ways. In fact according to early research and anecdotal evidence HSOs have been found to:  • Work from inside the intestines dislodging accumulated decay • from the walls and flushing out waste.  • Break down hydrocarbons which means they possess a unique • ability to split food into its most basic elements allowing almost • total absorption through the digestive system. This increases • overall nutrition and enhances cellular development.  • Produce specific proteins that act as antigens encouraging the • immune system to manufacture huge pools of uncoded • antibodies. This increased production of antibodies may • significantly boost the body's ability to ward off disease.  • Aggressively consume pathological yeasts fungi bacteria • parasites and viruses.  • Work in symbiosis with somatic (tissue or organ) cells to • metabolize proteins and eliminate toxic waste.  • Stimulate the body to produce natural alpha-interferon a potent • immune system enhancer and powerful virus inhibitor.  • Provide critical Lactoferrin supplementation as a by-product of • their metabolism. Lactoferrin is an iron-binding protein essential • for retrieving iron from foods. What symptoms can occur if I don't have enough probiotics A lack of beneficial bacteria often results in poor intestinal and immune system health contributing to a wide range of symptoms and illnesses. The following symptoms may result from a lack of probiotics: • Gas Bloating and Indigestion  • Diarrhea and/or Constipation  • Bad Breath and Body Odor  • Candida Yeast Infections  • Skin Problems such as Acne Eczema and Psoriasis  • Delayed Development in Children  • Frequent Colds   What is the difference between Primal Defense supplements and other probiotics Even if they manage to get through destructive stomach acids most probiotic supplements have difficulty implanting in colons that are pH imbalanced or have too many harmful bacteria.  HSO blends are designed to implant in any colonic environment. The Microflora™ Delivery System ensures that the probiotics colonize throughout the digestive tract where they are most effective.   The probiotics contained in Primal Defense supplements are grown and incorporated into a living whole food substrate using the Poten-Zyme™ process which allows them to thrive on their long journey through the GI tract.   Most probiotic companies grow bacteria and then in a centrifuge separate them from their substrate. We believe the substrate is as important as the probiotics themselves.   Many probiotics have included fructooligosaccharides (FOS) in their product. FOS is an indigestible sugar that may cause digestive disturbances in certain individuals. Primal Defense contains no FOS.   Since most probiotic supplements contain live cultures they are temperature and age sensitive therefore requiring refrigeration. If room temperature can begin to degrade these probiotics imagine what the warm human body will do. Our HSOs remain dormant until activated in body fluids and requires no refrigeration.   Many probiotic products measure their potency in colony-forming units (CFUs) whereas in Primal Defense it's not the quantity of probiotics that counts; it's the quality. The hardy probiotic strains in Primal Defense are resistant to heat cold stomach acid chlorine fluorine ascorbic acid and bile. The efficacy of a probiotic should be based upon its ability to thrive in the digestive tract whatever the conditions.   If I'm healthy how can I benefit from taking Primal Defense Total health begins in the gut so an optimized digestive tract can offer any number of benefits including more regular bowel movements better sleep patterns fewer colds and flu and more energy.  Where do Garden of Life's proprietary HSOs come from Years ago our soil was teeming with beneficial microbes which humans would consume through their food.

There are three kinds of enzymes: • Metabolic enzymes spark many of the reactions inside cells • enabling our organs  tissues and cells to work properly.   • Food enzymes supplied by what we eat help break down food • before our digestive enzymes are called upon. Food enzymes • are destroyed at temperatures above 118 degrees so all • cooked and processed foods are devoid of them.   • Digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas break down the • nutrients in the foods we eat.  Enzymes are perhaps our most important nutrients. When we eat raw foods we consume the enzymes they contain making them easy to digest. However when we eat cooked or processed foods the body must create the enzymes necessary to digest them. This constant demand for enzymes depletes our supply strains the body and enlarges the pancreas. Since enzymes are destroyed once they complete their tasks we must constantly replenish our supply for life to continue. The best ways to get the enzymes you need are to consume a diet high in "live" raw and fermented foods and to consume a high-potency digestive enzyme supplement such as Ω-Zyme™. What are live enzyme supplements The plant-based enzymes in Ω-Zyme supplement have been formulated along with fermented ginger tumeric barley grass and cat's claw. These ingredients long revered for their natural ability to enhance digestion have been fermented utilizing our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process. This process results in the creation of natural "live" enzymes and beneficial microorganisms that increase the bio-availability of the enzyme blend in Ω-Zyme. What's in Ω-Zyme™ supplement Ω-Zyme contains potent "live" enzymes essential to vibrant health:  • Protease blend of five proteolytic enzymes aids digestion and • utilization of dietary proteins.   • Glucoamylase breaks down carbohydrates.   • Invertase (sucrase) digests sugars and helps prevent • gastrointestinal problems.   • Alpha-galactosidase helps digestion of difficult-to-digest foods • such as beans legumes and cruciferous vegetables.   • Cellulase digests fiber cellulose into smaller units to help • remedy digestive problems such as malabsorption.   • Xylanase breaks down the sugar xylose.   • Pectinase breaks down carbohydrates such as pectin found in • many fruits.   • Hemicellulase breaks down carbohydrates found in plant foods.   • Mannanase digests the sugar known as mannose.   • Phytase breaks down carbohydrates present in many difficult-to- • digest grains and beans.   • Beta-glucanase-breaks down polysaccharides and fibers.   • Arabinosidase digests the sugar arabinose.   • Bromelain breaks down protein and fights inflammation and • reduces swelling.   • Papain digests protein and eases gastrointestinal discomfort.   • Poten-Zyme ginger extract contains extremely potent protein- • digesting enzymes frequently used to treat nausea and motion • sickness.   • Poten-Zyme turmeric extract is used to improve digestion and • reduce stomach  discomfort.   • Poten-Zyme barley grass extract provides the mineral co- • factors • necessary to enhance enzyme function.   • Poten-Zyme cat's claw extract is a powerful herb used for • hundreds of years for digestive problems and other ailments.

There are three kinds of enzymes: • Metabolic enzymes spark many of the reactions inside cells • enabling our organs  tissues and cells to work properly.   • Food enzymes supplied by what we eat help break down food • before our digestive enzymes are called upon. Food enzymes • are destroyed at temperatures above 118 degrees so all • cooked and processed foods are devoid of them.   • Digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas break down the • nutrients in the foods we eat.  Enzymes are perhaps our most important nutrients.

Now after three generations raised on processed foods up to 100 million Americans suffer some form of digestive disease.

Some ingredients in popular fiber products such as psyllium can actually do harm to the sensitive walls of the gastrointestinal tract. Super Seed utilizes soluble and insoluble fiber from pre-digested grains seeds and legumes that are easy to digest and gentle on the system. Super Seed is also a rich source of nutrients including balanced levels of Omega 3 6 and 9 fatty acids.

Volume Discounts Available Extra Virgin Coconut Oil— The Healthier Oil Garden of Life™ Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is one of the healthiest and most versatile unprocessed dietary oils in the world. Once thought to be a "bad" fat coconut oil has been proven to be a stable healthy saturated fat that can help maintain cholesterol levels support thyroid function ease occasional digestive disorder symptoms avert sugar cravings and provide many other health benefits. Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil contains lauric acid—the kind found in mother's milk—along with other medium-chain fatty acids. These super fatty acids are quickly metabolized and converted to energy in the body rather than being stored as fat.

What makes Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil different Early researchers failed to distinguish between saturated monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. They assumed all fats (including coconut oil) were unhealthy because they raised serum cholesterol levels. But in revisiting those studies researchers discovered that all fats are not created equal. Newer research demonstrates saturated fats rich in the medium chain fatty acids like those found in Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil are very beneficial. In the body lauric acid which accounts for 50-55% of the total fatty acids in Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil converts to monolaurin a powerful monoglyceride. What makes this coconut oil extra "virgin" Unlike refined coconut oils Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is not hydrogenated bleached refined or deodorized. It is produced using the same methods Filipino farmers have used for thousands of years. Meat extracted from only the freshest organically grown coconuts is shredded and cold-pressed to make coconut milk. The milk is left to ferment 24-36 hours during which time the oil separates. The end-product is an aromatic coconut oil that retains its taste aroma and nutritional value for a very long time. In fact Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil has a longer shelf life than any other plant oil. How does Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil benefit my health Although many people equate fat with weight gain clogged arteries and high blood pressure certain fats actually help prevent those conditions and are essential to good health. Coconut oil has been shown to reduce the symptoms of occasional digestive disorders and support overall immune function. In addition a study conducted in Yucatan where coconut oil is a staple showed metabolic rates of people living there to be 25% higher than in comparable test subjects living in the U.S. Increased metabolic rate is a key to healthy weight management and could account for the leanness of people living in areas where coconut oil is consumed on a daily basis. What makes Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil better than other coconut oils Because Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is traditionally prepared and minimally processed it retains all of its medium-chain fatty acids and other beneficial compounds. Refined versions may have a bland or burnt taste as a result of the refinement process. Additionally Garden of Life Extra Virgin Coconut Oil delivers the aroma and flavor of fresh coconuts.

It has more than 21 organic nutrients and beneficial probiotics including:   • Blueberries shown to play a role in thwarting the effects of •  aging.   • Strawberries a rich source of natural vitamin C and • phytochemicals.   • Raspberries a potent source of ellagic acid vitamin C and •  fiber.   •  Blackberries a concentrated source of anthocyanins and other • phytochemicals.   • Raisins which contain more than a dozen antioxidants as well as • resveratrol a beneficial phytonutrient.   • Mineral Matrix™ a unique blend of alkalinizing minerals •  enzymes and probiotics from goat's milk that feeds beneficial •  flora in the gastrointestinal tract to aid digestion and •  elimination.   • Flavonoids which help prevent the formation of free radicals.  •  Anthocyanins flavonoids found in blueberries that are three to •  four times more potent than vitamin C.  What are free radicals and how can they hurt my body Free radicals are unstable destructive molecules that lack electrons. They form naturally as a result of normal metabolic processes such as breathing but they can be increased beyond healthy levels by smoking obesity poor diet aging over-exercise stress and other factors. When the body lacks adequate antioxidants to fend them off oxidative stress occurs which can lead to cell damage and a host of health problems. What are antioxidants and why do I need them "Antioxidant" is a classification of organic substances found in fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants deactivate free radicals that if allowed to persist can cause cell damage and eventually lead to disease. Why is alkalinity or proper pH important to me Alkalinity or proper pH—the balance of acids in the body—is important because like body temperature there's an optimal pH range in which the body creates healthy reactions. Maintenance of the proper pH range is an important component to good health. Research indicates that many health issues are associated with over-acidity (or low pH level) in the body. How do the alkalinizing minerals in Fruits of Life™ supplement benefit me The alkalinizing minerals in Fruits of Life help restore and maintain the body's proper pH. By clearing the cells of acidic waste Fruits of Life supplement support good health. Consuming Fruits of Life powder is an excellent way for your child to get his or her recommended daily allowance of the highest quality organic fruits and vegetables available. One serving of Fruits of Life contains 3 000mg of the most powerful antioxidant fruits on earth. What makes your Fruits of Life supplement better than other antioxidant formulas Our Fruits of Life supplement is unlike any other antioxidant formula available today. Its wide array of powerful fruit extracts and fermented goat's milk whey make this formula both unique and potent. The fruit powders in Fruits of Life have been predigested using our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ fermentation process to increase bio-availability and nutrient assimilation. What is the difference between Radical Fruits and Fruits of Life supplements While both contain powerful antioxidants essential to good health Radical Fruits is formulated with highly concentrated ingredients that dictate the use of a caplet form rather than a powder form as with Fruits of Life. A powder form of Radical Fruits would not be palatable. Total Purchase* Discount $100 - $249 5% OFF $250 - $399 10% OFF $400 + 15% OFF *Discount applies only toward Garden of Life ™ products.

It contains all eight essential amino acids—protein building blocks crucial to enhancing your immune system and alleviating the effects of oxidative stress on the body. Goatein protein is produced from goat's milk that contains no chemicals antibiotics or female growth hormones leaving its amino acids enzymes and beneficial bacteria in their purest forms. Because the smaller molecules in goat's milk are closer in size and composition to human milk Goatein protein is easy to digest and can be tolerated by many people who cannot digest cow's milk. Additionally Goatein protein is partially predigested using our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process to enhance nutrient absorption and bio-availability. Join the millions who enjoy the health benefits of goat's milk protein by adding Goatein protein to your diet every day. Benefits: •  Pure goat's milk protein powder  • Valuable source of all essential amino acids needed for healthy • tissue development  • Goatein goats are not fed pesticides herbicides growth • hormones or antibiotics  • Easier to digest than cow's milk and substantially less allergenic  _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support _______________________________________________________  Goatein™ Q&A Why do I need a protein supplement Proteins form the foundations for muscles skin bones hair teeth blood the brain the heart and billions of biochemical activities in the body. They are made up of approximately 22 amino acids eight of which are considered "essential" because the body cannot produce them and they must be obtained through diet. Protein is needed to maintain proper pH balance—a key component of good health. Without adequate amounts of protein your blood and tissues can become either too acidic or too alkaline resulting in a pH imbalance. By adding a high-quality protein formula like Goatein to your diet you get the protein needed to maintain vibrant health. Is the animal protein in Goatein™ better than vegetable protein Yes! Animal protein is the only complete source of protein available. Vegetarian sources such as soy are typically low in one or more of the essential amino acids even when overall protein content is high. There is also some controversy regarding the safety of soy. Soy protein is thought by some researchers to be high in mineral-blocking phytates and thyroid-depressing phytoestrogens. Potent enzyme inhibitors in soy may even depress growth. Why is Goatein protein easier to digest than cow's milk The smaller molecules in goat's milk are closer in size and composition to human milk and substantially less allergenic than cow's milk protein. Additionally Goatein protein is partially pre-digested through our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process making it even more bio-available while virtually eliminating its lactose content. Research has shown that proteins from milk pre-digested by lacto-fermentation are absorbed more efficiently than those of non-fermented milk. An added benefit of the fermentation process is that it creates digestive enzymes that aid in the assimilation of nutrients. What is oxidative stress and how does Goatein protein help the body fight it Oxidative stress is a harmful condition that occurs when there is an excess of free radicals a decrease in antioxidant levels or both in the body. What makes Goatein™ protein better than other protein products Most commercial dairy protein powders are produced from animals given antibiotics and/or BrST that produce female hormones. Many vegetable protein powders are made from non-organic or genetically modified organisms and may contain chemical residues. By contrast Goatein protein powder is made from pure goat's milk without antibiotics or female growth hormones. Our goats are not fed pesticides herbicides growth hormones or antibiotics. Additionally most other milk protein powders are made from cow's milk and although they claim to be "minimally processed " invasive processing including heating at high temperatures is used. Because Goatein protein powder is processed without acid or excessive heat the amino acids enzymes and beneficial bacteria remain in their natural forms.

Super green foods are the only foods in the vegetable kingdom that enable animals to continually maintain their weight strength and optimal health even if consumed alone. They abound in unidentified growth factors powerful antioxidants immune boosters and many other health enhancing nutrients. What are the effects of not eating enough vegetables and greens Surprisingly malnutrition can occur even if your body is only deficient in a single vitamin. Malnutrition means you're not getting enough nutrients as a result of an inadequate or unbalanced diet or because of digestive or absorption difficulties. Symptoms of malnutrition include lack of energy irritability a weakened immune system leading to frequent colds or allergies and mineral depletion that can trigger a variety of health concerns including anemia. If I'm already taking a vitamin supplement why do I need Perfect Food® supplements The whole foods found in Perfect Food provide vitamins and minerals as nature intended with all the naturally occurring co-factors and synergistic compounds intact. They contain hundreds and possibly thousands of nutrients that cannot be isolated and put into a vitamin and mineral supplement. Whole foods and their concentrates contain complete nutritional complexes the body recognizes and assimilates according to what it needs—a process called "selective absorption." In contrast most vitamin and mineral supplements are made from fractionated isolated or synthetic sources that can potentially create an environment of biochemical imbalances and toxicities. For optimal health there's nothing better or more compatible to the human body than nutrient-rich unprocessed whole foods in their balanced natural state like those found in Perfect Food.

Made by: Garden of Life Volume Discounts Available Radical Fruits Antioxidant Formula A powerful antioxidant formula that fights free radicals in the body Radical Fruits® blends organic fruit extracts and alkalinizing minerals from hormone-free goat's milk to provide immune-enhancing benefits. Radical Fruits supplement is the ideal solution to today's hectic schedules and processed foods that make it almost impossible to get the concentration of nutrients needed for good health. Formulated with our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process for superior bio-availability Radical Fruits goes far beyond the antioxidant value of much-touted grape seed extract green tea or pycnogenol—all in a convenient caplet form. Protect yourself with one of the most potent antioxidant blends available. Protect yourself with Radical Fruits supplement. Benefits: • A comprehensive blend of certified organic antioxidant-rich fruit  • extracts and alkalinizing minerals   • Helps fight and neutralize free radicals and protect against • oxidative damage • Contains powerful antioxidants such as ellagic chlorogenic and • caffeic acids   • More potent than grape seed extract green tea and pycnogenol _______________________________________________________ HELP »  Contact Customer Support • Toll-Free help line offering product info and ordering support • Online e-mail technical and installation support _______________________________________________________  Radical Fruits Q&A What is Radical Fruits® and what is in it Radical Fruits is a powerful antioxidant blend designed to ward off the effects of aging and support good health. It contains: • Poten-Zyme™ Grape extract with antioxidants from the skin • seeds and extracts from whole grapes • Poten-Zyme™ Raspberry extract abundant in vitamin C fiber • and ellagic acid • Goat's milk whey with alkalinizing minerals enzymes and • probiotics  that aid in digestion and elimination. • Prune extract which some studies show to have the highest • antioxidant activity of all foods • Poten-Zyme™ Blueberry extract shown to help reduce glucose • absorption in the intestines increase glucose metabolism • support healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels and fight free • radicals What are free radicals and how can they hurt my body Free radicals are unstable destructive molecules that lack electrons. They form naturally as a result of normal metabolic processes such as breathing but they can be increased beyond healthy levels by smoking obesity poor diet aging over-exercise stress and other factors. When the body lacks adequate antioxidants to fend them off oxidative stress occurs which can lead to cell damage and a host of health problems. What are antioxidants and why do I need them "Antioxidant" is a classification of organic substances found in fruits and vegetables that deactivate free radicals. Free radicals if allowed to persist can compromise cellular integrity. The destruction of healthy cells may be avoided by simply adding a powerful antioxidant nutrient combination such as Radical Fruits to your daily diet. An extensive ORAC analysis (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) performed at Tufts University in Boston showed high scores in the ability of these fruit extracts to significantly protect cells and their components from oxidative damage. They were also shown to help slow the processes associated with aging in both body and brain function. What is the difference between Radical Fruits and Fruits of Life supplements While both contain powerful antioxidants essential to good health Radical Fruits® is formulated with highly concentrated ingredients that dictate the use of a caplet form rather than a powder form as with Fruits of Life. A powder form of Radical Fruits would not be palatable. What makes your Radical Fruits supplement better than other antioxidant blends Radical Fruits is unlike any other antioxidant formula available today. Its blend of powerful fruit extracts and fermented goat's milk whey makes this formula both unique and potent. The fruit powders in our Radical Fruits supplement have been predigested utilizing our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ fermentation process to increase bio-availability and nutrient assimilation.

Please complete print and fax sizing form to 800-897-6527 and our engineers and consultants will prepare a free cost of operation and pool heater sizing analysis. Sizing Guideline: • Model AT700 for pools 12 x 24 up to 16 x 32  (288 to 512 square feet) • Model AT1200 for pools 18 x 36 up to 20 x 40 (648 to 800 square feet) Can I install it myself Each model of heat pump can be installed by the handyman although it is strongly recommended that the electric hookups be made by a professional contractor. It typically takes less than a day to have a heat pump installed and running. Installation manuals are included with each Heat Pump. View Aquatherm's Installation Manual in PDF format. Energy Rating and Efficiency Pool/Spa heat pumps are rated on B.T.U. output and C.O.P. efficiency: B.T.U. [British Thermal Units] is the measured amount of heat output the unit will produce. The B.T.U. output will fluctuate with the outside air temperature and humidity levels. C.O.P. [Coefficient Of Performance] is the measured ratio of kilowatt usage compared to the kilowatt output. Aquatherm heat pumps produce between 6.3* and 5.4** kilowatts for every one kilowatt used to operate it therefore every $1.00 spent in operation returns $6.30 to $5.40 worth of heat. The C.O.P. efficiency will fluctuate with outside air temperature and humidity levels. In 23 years of testing Aquatherm has focused on obtaining the highest efficiency possible. A pool heat pump can be charged with refrigerant in such a way that will increase the BTU output at the "optimum" or "easy" weather conditions but the efficiency [or cost of operation] will be sacrificed especially in colder "tougher" weather conditions. A unit with a C.O.P. of 1 point less can cost 20+% more to operate than the Aquatherm. Operating efficiently during colder weather conditions is "where the rubber meets the road" so to speak. Aquatherm designs their heat pumps to obtain the maximum BTU but only at the very highest efficiency possible in a wide range of weather conditions. The greatest value a heat pump provides a pool owner is to deliver a warm pool or hot spa at the lowest possible cost of operation. ____________________________________________________ Note: All heat pumps are shipped directly from the factory and are non-returnable - all sales are final.

They are biologically active molecules that have been clinically proven to significantly modulate the effects of the immune system. Phytosterols and sterolins can naturally increase levels of the super hormone DHEA and scientists believe they have the ability to actually "turn off" factors that can initiate inflammation. Without phytosterols and sterolins in our diet the immune system may become too stressed to function properly. Because modern processing and preparation techniques can wipe out the beneficial phytosterols and sterolins in raw foods our diets usually have little sterolin content.  What is in RevivAll All three RevivAll formulas contain the highest quality certified organic or chemical-free ingredients shown to help boost the immune system regulate hormones and promote good health. While other products contain only one or two ingredients offering limited therapeutic benefits each RevivAll Formula contains powerful whole foods and herbs with a multitude of vitamins minerals enzymes proteins amino acids antioxidants and phytonutrients.

Water is the delivery system that carries nutrients to the cells maintains energy production and removes toxic wastes from the body. Life as we know it originated in water and cannot exist without it. Water acts as chemical messenger carrying vital elements such as oxygen hormones and minerals to all parts of the body. Increasing water intake can significantly alleviate many health problems. What do the minerals and trace elements in Springs of Life® water enhancer do Minerals and trace minerals are the catalysts for all other nutrients your body uses in maintaining vibrant health. They help energize and fuel your body's electrical system and support the natural balance in healthy tissues fluids cells and organs. Research shows that a deficiency of these elements may result in a variety of toxicities.

Excessive weight and obesity lead to some 280 000 preventable deaths in the U.S. each year.

Grapefruit for example is proven to help reduce fat by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for carbohydrate absorption. In addition grapefruit peel contains a remarkable compound that eliminates fat cells in human tissue and increases tissue density measured as leanness. Grapefruit pectin has demonstrated ability to lower blood sugar levels in diabetics by reducing carbohydrates entering the bloodstream which in turn lessens the amount of sugar being absorbed. Rhodiola rosea and Rhododendron caucasium together help reduce body fat without muscle tissue loss. Zero Gravity's magnolol contains optimal levels of naturally occurring perilipin inhibitors. Preliminary research suggests the Zero Gravity formula can also help minimize stress-related weight gain. Its honokiol from magnolia bark and Rhodiola rosea can help regulate elevated cortisol levels in the body—a factor research has linked to stress-induced eating. What's in Zero Gravity weight management formula The ingredients in the Zero Gravity formula include whole fruits sea vegetable extracts and tea infusions of roots barks and leaves including whole organic grapefruit concentrate one of nature's richest sources of antioxidants bioflavanoids enzymes and fiber. Will Zero Gravity weight management formula alone make me lose weight Experts say the best way to lose weight is with a complete approach that begins with a whole foods diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables lean protein (seafood and low-fat meat) and reduced amounts of refined carbohydrates (bread pasta cereal sugar and soft drinks) and processed fats (margarine vegetable shortening and refined cooking oils). It is also important to drink a minimum of eight glasses of water each day to flush out accumulated toxins and waste material and get at least 45 minutes of moderate exercise five days a week. In addition to including Zero Gravity in your daily regimen we also recommend adding Perfect Food® and Super Seed™ supplements to ensure adequate nutrient and fiber intake as well as Springs of Life® water enhancer to facilitate efficient detoxification and enhance the nutritional value of your water. What makes your Zero Gravity weight management formula better than other weight loss formulas Zero Gravity contains valuable antioxidants enzymes bioflavonoids and fiber shown to benefit overall health. These powerful ingredients are uniquely effective because Zero Gravity supplement is formulated using our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process to provide maximum nutrient absorption.

The powerful combination of immunoglobulins peptides and growth factors in Goatein IG protein encourages fat burning lean muscle growth and cellular rejuvenation. Goatein IG protein is produced from goat's milk that contains no chemicals antibiotics or female growth hormones. It can be tolerated by many people who cannot digest cow's milk.

This life-supporting fluid helps ensure the health and vitality of newborns with germ-fighting immune factors and cell-dividing proteins called growth factors. According to medical research colostrum offers tremendous therapeutic potential for maintaining overall health and wellness. By supporting healthy immune function colostrum enables you to resist the harmful effects of pollutants contaminants and allergens. Its growth factors encourage healthy organisms to burn fat build lean muscle mass and rejuvenate skin and cellular structures. Why is Goatein™ IG protein easier to digest than cow's milk The smaller molecules in goat's milk are closer in size and composition to human milk which make it easier to digest. Goat's milk is substantially less allergenic than cow's milk so it triggers less reaction even in sensitive individuals. And the protein portion of Goatein is predigested through a lactic acid fermentation process that greatly enhances bio-availability without damaging immunoglobulins. This method virtually eliminates lactose. What makes Goatein IG protein better than other goat's milk formulas Most other milk-based protein powders and colostrums are made from cow's milk and though they claim to be "minimally processed " some use high temperatures that denature many important amino acids and destroy enzymes and beneficial bacteria. Because Goatein IG protein is processed without acid or excessive heat the amino acids enzymes and beneficial bacteria remain in their effective natural forms. Most other colostrum products are made on farms and shipped hundreds or even thousands of miles for processing. The colostrum in Goatein IG protein is processed and dried while still at the farms guaranteeing high biological activity. Goatein IG protein is partially predigested using our proprietary Poten-Zyme™ process which enhances the absorption and bio-availability of nutrients.

Our hectic lifestyles can make eating healthy amounts of vitamin C-rich foods like fresh fruits and vegetables a challenge. But with a whole food supplement like Living Vitamin C you're sure to get the level of vitamin C you need.  How do the support nutrients in your Living Vitamin C™ supplement help me Besides being a rich source of vitamin C our Living Vitamin C supplement contains a myriad of support nutrients that contribute to overall good health. Probiotics Probiotics are designed to promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms also called good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. Healthy human intestines contain billions of microorganisms—both good and bad. The good bacteria in the intestine are considered an integral part of your immune system. Many people are unaware that daily exposure to the environment and even certain habits considered healthy—like taking antibiotics drinking chlorinated water and using antibacterial soap—often kill these good bacteria essential for health. Antioxidants Antioxidants are organic substances found in fruits and vegetables. Antioxidants deactivate free radicals that if allowed to persist can cause cell damage. Enzymes Enzymes carry out every chemical reaction in your body including breaking down nutrients so your body can digest and use them. Without enzymes even the most balanced natural foods diet would be worthless. Although enzymes are present in all raw foods they become devitalized in cooked or highly processed foods. Even steaming or microwaving vegetables kills enzymes. When the body receives foods deficient in enzymes it increases its white blood cells as a defense mechanism which can weaken the immune system.  What makes your Living Vitamin C™ supplement better than other Vitamin C supplements Unlike supplements that deliver vitamin C in only one nutrient form Living Vitamin C is a whole food blend formulated to deliver all the benefits of vitamin C found in nature. Living Vitamin C contains: • Certified organic orange grapefruit lemon and lime citrus blend • that includes the fruit pulp peel and seeds. • Organic cereal grass juices to alkalinize the body and provide • important vitamin mineral and enzyme co-factors. • Organic trace minerals in their ionic forms to support vitamin C • absorption and usage. • Antioxidant blend of whole raspberry strawberry blueberry • blackberry prune and grape fruits skins and seeds.

Calcium:  •    Alkalinizes the body to ensure a healthy pH range.  •    Maintains the integrity of skin and tissues.  •    Helps the body maintain already normal blood pressure.  •    Helps support already healthy cholesterol and triglycerides.  •    Regulates the entry of nutrients into the body's cells.     Why should I take a calcium supplement Calcium is an "essential" nutrient which means it is not produced by the body and must be acquired through diet or supplements. If you don't get enough calcium your body will drain it from your bones which can make them weak and prone to osteoporosis.  What are Homeostatic Nutrient™ complexes Homeostatic Nutrient complexes are vitamins and minerals that have been liberated and made more potent with probiotic microorganisms and their by-products. The process of turning ordinary vitamins and minerals into living "whole food" structures enables them to be more efficiently utilized by our bodies.  What makes Living Calcium™ better than other calcium supplements In contrast to single nutrient calcium supplements Living Calcium contains all the co-factors necessary for proper assimilation: vitamin C vitamin D iodine zinc magnesium boron copper and manganese.

PLUS the Digital Display models all come with a built-in time clock for controlling the pool pump which is an excellent way to save the cost and hassle of installing a timer unit on new pool installations! ____________________________________________________  •   TOTAL FREEDOM Never purchase Chlorine again. Never transport Chlorine again. And never smell that awful Chlorine odor again!!! PLUS... A Pool Pilot combined with an automated pool cleaning device can eliminate the need for Pool Maintenance Service!  The Pool Pilot system  pays for itself in chemicals savings alone! •   TOTAL SIMPLICITY   Install it. Then forget it. Once an optimum level of operation is achieved  the only task required is to hit the boost cycle when weather conditions are extreme or the pool experiences unusually heavy use.  The Pool Pilot insures a constant low chlorine level which eliminates the wide fluctuations of over-and-under chlorination.  And the Pool Pilot drastically reduces the need to monitor purchase and add other balancing or maintenance chemicals. So imagine having a "company perfect" pool everyday -  and never worrying about pool maintenance while on vacation. •   TOTAL PURITY   Salt is natural. It comes from the Earth. Salt is economical and available everywhere. It is also eco-friendly -  plus the salt-to-chlorine conversion is energy efficient! A wonderful thing happens to the salt after it is turned into low-level chlorine and does the work of sanitizing you pool water - it turns back into salt and the process begins all over again. But the best part is that the salt content of the pool water is at a much lower level than contact lens solution used with the human eye;  so harmless there is not even a detectable salty taste to the water!!! » See HELPFUL Q & A - Information regarding Pool Pilot use ____________________________________________________  INNOVATION – Pool Pilot Soft Touch's exclusive process : The salt-chlorine generation process naturally economically safely and effectively controls all the harmful micro-organism growth in the pool water... reducing  toxic levels of Chlorine use by scientifically generating its own nature-based salt chlorine at constant sustainable low levels ! Simply pour salt directly into the pool water - it dissolves quickly. When the ions in salt are passed over specially coated blades in the Pool Pilot's conversion cell and induced with a low voltage electrical charge the ions are converted into naturally generated chlorine. When this process is incorporated into a swimming pool's filtration system  it creates a natural low level chlorine generator. The Pool Pilot reduces up to 80% of all the costly chemicals needed to kill unsafe algae and bacteria in pool water - chemicals that also can cause serious damage to the earth's delicate ecosystem. And more   importantly according to a recent study by Greenpeace exposure to Chlorine gas during swimming may result in several heightened human health concerns including neurological problems in children breast cancer   deformities and infertility. See Below*   •   The Pool Pilot is so rugged and effective it was chosen exclusively •   to serve as Carnival Cruise Line's onboard pool purifier system! •   Designed to operate under the most demanding 24/7 high-volume •   use the Pool Pilot units easily stand up to use with pure sea water! So try a POOL PILOT Soft Touch and enjoy feeling the water's silky smoothness that comes with a naturally pure chemically-free swimming pool experience!!! It's so easy to install and operate and the water feels so luxurious you will wonder why you didn't start using Pool Pilot years ago! ____________________________________________________                              Exclusive Pool Pilot Features: Pool Pilot's unique patented technology on its SuperCell offers:       •  Titanium blades for optimum service life       •  Automatic "soft-reverse polarity" cell cleaning       •  Step-by-Step Factory Customer Support Help Line offering       •   personal assistance with conversion cell maintenance  Plus Pool Pilot comes complete with all the necessary wiring harnesses cable connections and mounting hardware.

An accumulation of these contaminants will tend to cloud the water; therefore a small trace amount of chlorine or other oxidizers is necessary to dissolve them to maintain crystal clear conditions. Other oxidizers that may be substituted are bromine hydrogen peroxide or oxygen based compounds which are readily available at most pool supply stores.  ____________________________________________________  Note: Baquacil pools needs to be converted to chlorine before Pool Pilot installation: How To Change a Bacquacil Pool to a Chlorine Pool ____________________________________________________ Delivery Information: Please allow 2 to 10 business days for orders to be processed plus standard transportation delivery time. ____________________________________________________ Our Star Rating system is the direct result of experience with well over 4000 actual units in the field in the homes of our customers.

Once an optimum level of operation is achieved  the only task required is to hit the boost cycle when weather conditions are extreme or the pool experiences unusually heavy use.  The Pool Pilot insures a constant low chlorine level which eliminates the wide fluctuations of over-and-under chlorination.  And the Pool Pilot drastically reduces the need to monitor purchase and add other balancing or maintenance chemicals. So imagine having a "company perfect" pool everyday -  and never worrying about pool maintenance while on vacation. •   TOTAL PURITY   Salt is natural. It comes from the Earth. Salt is economical and available everywhere. It is also eco-friendly -  plus the salt-to-chlorine conversion is energy efficient! A wonderful thing happens to the salt after it is turned into low-level chlorine and does the work of sanitizing you pool water - it turns back into salt and the process begins all over again. But the best part is that the salt content of the pool water is at a much lower level than contact lens solution used with the human eye;  so harmless there is not even a detectable salty taste to the water!!! » See HELPFUL Q & A - Information regarding Pool Pilot use ____________________________________________________  INNOVATION – Pool Pilot's exclusive process : The salt-chlorine generation process naturally economically safely and effectively controls all the harmful micro-organism growth in the pool water... reducing  toxic levels of Chlorine use by scientifically generating its own nature-based salt chlorine at constant sustainable low levels ! Simply pour salt directly into the pool water - it dissolves quickly. When the ions in salt are passed over specially coated blades in the Pool Pilot's conversion cell and induced with a low voltage electrical charge the ions are converted into naturally generated chlorine. When this process is incorporated into a swimming pool's filtration system  it creates a natural low level chlorine generator. The Pool Pilot reduces up to 80% of all the costly chemicals needed to kill unsafe algae and bacteria in pool water - chemicals that also can cause serious damage to the earth's delicate ecosystem. And more   importantly according to a recent study by Greenpeace exposure to Chlorine gas during swimming may result in several heightened human health concerns including neurological problems in children breast cancer   deformities and infertility.

An accumulation of these contaminants will tend to cloud the water; therefore a small trace amount of chlorine or other oxidizers is necessary to dissolve them to maintain crystal clear conditions. Other oxidizers that may be substituted are bromine hydrogen peroxide or oxygen based compounds which are readily available at most pool supply stores.
