HI DELUXE

Captures the most solar energy:Our proven tube-on-fin design sends 70 to 94 percent of the available solar energy to the pool water under normal operating conditions.

Most durable:Our headers are molded to the extruded absorber surface in a 450-ton injection-molding machine, forming a permanent, leak-proof bond. Our unique tube-on-fin absorber freely expands and contracts with temperature changes, relieving the stresses that cause other solar collectors to deteriorate with age.

Proven materials:Hi-Deluxe is made from a special grade of polypropylene that has demonstrated consistently high reliability in solar pool heating collectors for over 23 years, in all climates.

Better flow:Generous two-inch inside diameter headers and straight-through water flow in the absorber tubes, improves water flow. Better flow raises solar collector performance and assures maximum pool filtration.

Better appearance:Our injection molding process smoothly joins the header and absorber, assuring consistently superior workmanship. Installed solar collectors are close-coupled, minimizing space between absorbers. The narrower gap improves the appearance of the array and fits more solar collector area into less space.

Quality controls:Each Hi-Deluxe solar collector is inspected at every production step. The completed solar collector is subjected to a pressure test of 100 pounds per square inch and undergoes a thorough final inspection before it is shipped.

Warranty:Hi-Deluxe is made in the
U.S.A. with care and pride. This outstanding quality makes it possible for us to give you a 12 year Warranty.
