The unit links to your filter pump: clear pool water is pushed through the solar mat where sunlight heats it, then returned to the pool. Multiple pads can be connected in series for larger pools or faster warming. This product is made to withstand outdoor conditions and comes with adapter fittings to match common filter pump hose sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Bestway solar pad actually warm my pool?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pad is a dark, weather-resistant mat with internal channels: your pump drives water through the channels while sunlight warms the mat, transferring heat to the water.
