Eco Solar Pool Heater Mat 1.2m x 1.2m, UV Stabilised PVC with Bypass Valve and Hose by Intex

Cold water can cut a swim short, especially early and late in the season. A solar mat is a low-fuss way to make the pool more inviting.

The Intex Solar Mat hooks up simply to your filtration setup and circulates pool water through a 1 m² surface that soaks up sunlight, lifting the temperature by roughly 3°C to 5°C depending on conditions. It suits above ground pools holding up to 30,280 litres and pumps flowing at less than 5,678 L/h. Laid flat before filling, it measures 1.20 m by 1.20 m, and the heavy-duty PVC is UV stabilised for life in the sun. When you are done for the year, it drains easily and packs away.
