Our direct solar pump systems are designed for efficient operation during sunny daylight hours. Follow this guide for proper setup, seasonal adjustments, and maintenance to maximize performance and longevity.
Quick Installation Guide
Step 1: Place pump in water on stable platform
Step 2: Position solar panel in direct sunlight
Step 3: Connect pump to solar panel
Step 4: Select spray head, and enjoy!
1. Before You Begin
Component Verification
Inspect solar panel for cracks or damage
Verify pump unit is undamaged and operational
Check cable for fraying or loose connections
Confirm all mounting hardware is included
Ensure all components are present
Site Assessment
Choose location with full sun exposure
Calculate total head height and distance
Ensure equipment accessibility for maintenance
Consider seasonal sun angles
Avoid areas with shade from trees or structures
2. Critical Safety Guidelines
Never operate the pump out of water
Secure all connections properly
Keep panel clean and free from debris
Mount panel securely to prevent wind damage
Do not cut or extend the cable without proper waterproof connectors
3. Installation Process
Solar Panel Positioning
Mount panel securely with provided hardware (if included)
Discover the operational principles and seasonal performance of your energy-efficient pump system. This guide explains how to maximize its potential through proper positioning and seasonal adjustments.
1. Basic Operating Principle
Direct Solar Operation
The panel captures sunlight and converts it directly into electrical energy
Power flows immediately to the pump without storage
Pump performance directly matches available sunlight intensity
Operation begins automatically when sufficient sunlight is available
2. Seasonal Operation
Peak Season (May to September)
Optimal performance during direct sunlight hours
Flow rate varies with available sunlight
Maximum flow rate achieved in full sunlight
Best performance during clear weather conditions
Shoulder Seasons (March-April, October)
Shorter operational hours with seasonal daylight
Variable performance based on weather conditions
Expect 40-60% of peak season performance
Performance highly dependent on clear days
Winter Operation (November-February)
Limited operation during peak sunlight hours
Expect 5-10% of peak season performance
Performance highly dependent on direct sunlight
Consider removing system during winter months
3. Optimizing Performance
Seasonal Panel Positioning
To maximize energy capture, adjust the panel angle based on the sun's position throughout the year. In the UK:
Winter (November-February): Position at 60° angle
Spring/Autumn (March-April, September-October): Adjust to 40° angle
Summer (May-August): Set at 20-30° angle
Regular seasonal adjustment ensures optimal energy capture.
Critical Installation Factors
Position panel facing south for maximum exposure
Avoid any shading on the panel surface
Clean panel regularly to maintain efficiency
Ensure unobstructed sunlight throughout the day
Performance Expectations
Flow rate varies with sunlight intensity
Operation stops during insufficient light
No nighttime or heavy cloud operation
Performance improves with direct sunlight
4. System Types
Direct Systems
Simple panel-to-pump connection
Operates only during sufficient daylight
Flow rate directly reflects available sunlight
Stops immediately when sun is blocked
Most economical option
Battery-Backed Systems
Includes energy storage capability
Provides more consistent water flow
Continues operation during brief cloudy periods
Can function after sunset for several hours
Often includes timer functionality
5. Maintenance Requirements
Regular Care
Clean panel surface weekly for optimal energy capture
I bought this to add some interest to a half-barrel patio pond that I'm putting together. I am so chuffed with it. Having the solar panel separate from the pump I can position it neatly out of the way and enjoy watching the little fountain. My patio is now like Versailles
