DIY Solar Thermal IRRIGATION Tube Water Heater! Solar Water Heater! Easy DIY! No Soldering, Clamps, Crimp Rings, Glues, Unions, or that expensive crimping tool!
In my DIY solar pool heater, I have used inexpensive material. It can be made in just few hours. It works great and can raise water temp up to 30°, depending on the weather, sunlight and water flow. I have used ball-valve to control the water flow, and planning to add at least one more heater for my 1000-gallon pool for better efficiency and to use the pool more into the fall season. I purchased 500ft DIG irrigation tube for only $40 and only used 120 ft for one heater.
List of material used:
1) DIG Irrigation tube (purchased 500ft for ~$40 from Home Depot but used only 120ft)
2) Plywood 4x4 piece
3) 2x1x8 lumber
4) 2x2x8 lumber(2pc)
5) Water hose connectors
6) Black paint
7) Screws

I love the prices of these things people pay on CZcams. 100ft of pex tubing alone runs $25 CAD. The whole thing would be over $100 easy.
Reducing the flow will get you a higher output temp but a faster flow will be less strain on the pump and actually gain BTUs of heat transfer, which is what you are looking for in the long run. You can also cover the outside of the pool with some sort of insulation to keep what you gain. Even bubble wrap can make a substantial difference... and that can be found in dumpsters everywhere... if you hunt around.
Wow! Impressed that you coiled that on your own!
Thanks!
Great video. I like how you put the materials you used.
What submersible sump pump works against 100% resistance? More importanly, who would heat an 85F degree pool?
Cómo te encanta desperdiciar el agua, ! Cuidala ,!
How many degrees did it actually raise your pool water temp? And how long did it take to raise it?
Love people measuring water with infrared. 🤭
What if you just used 200 ft or more of black garden hose hooked up to a sump pump?
I'm going to make this heater this weekend. How's yours after a few months?
@@everydaydiys9708 Mine works fine however it's not getting enough sun especially this time of year. The pool temp is in the low 60s and the heater is pumping out water around low 70s. I have seen it pump over 95 degrees in late summer. We do need more coils. My pool is 6,500 gallons.
How come you never see it hooked up to a pool.
too far away
