Questions and answers
I have an older SunRay SolFlo pump. Where are its manuals?
The SolFlo1 to SolFlo4 data sheets, motor manuals, brush instructions and pump curves are listed below on this page.
My old DC pump stops when the sun goes in. What can I do?
That is how DC-only solar pumps work. A SunRay hybrid AC/DC pump switches to AC automatically when needed, so it keeps running. Send us your old pump’s label and we’ll match a replacement.
How do I work out what my current pump costs to run?
Volts × amps from the motor label ÷ 1,000 gives kilowatts. Multiply by hours per day, days in your billing cycle and your rate per kWh.
Is there a federal tax credit for a solar pool pump?
No. There is no 30% federal tax credit for these pumps any longer. Price your pump at the listed price.
Do you ship to Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, Hawaii or Mexico?
Yes. Hawaii ships free, like the rest of the U.S. Outside the U.S., free shipping to your freight forwarder in Florida (the forwarder's freight on is extra). Puerto Rico ships by U.S. Postal Service. Alaska and pump-only orders: ask us about shipping.
