Thermax solar pool heaters provide durability , efficiency, and versatility. But one standout feature that truly sets them apart is their use of silicone connectors and stainless steel fasteners. These material choices can make Thermax heaters virtually maintenance-free systems. They are manufactured to withstand diverse climates and harsh outdoor conditions. The Material Advantage of Silicone Connectors Silicone provides exceptional flexibility, durability , and temperature resistance. These qualities make silicone ideal for connectors in solar pool heating systems. Many traditional solar pool heaters use PVC or rubber connectors prone to cracking, hardening, or leaking over time. But Thermax’s silicone connectors stay adaptable and resilient. The elasticity allows the connectors to absorb vibrations and slight movements caused by weather changes. This property ensures the natural expansion and contraction of system components without compromising their seal. Ho...
