With an average of nearly 9 hours of daily sunlight, there is ample energy to power swimming pools or Koi ponds during the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSunlight illuminates the solar panels for this unit, generating DC electricity. Electricity then travels from the panels to the controller box situated atop the pump, allowing the pump to operate. It can run on solar alone or in conjunction with power from the grid to ensure consistent water quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve optimal power generation, the solar panels are installed in rows and aligned towards true North in the Southern Hemisphere and true South in the Northern Hemisphere. The panels’ tilt should match the latitude of your location, for example, 33° for Cape Town, 29° for Durban, 26° for Johannesburg, and 25° for Pretoria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll BADU® units are designed and constructed from the finest materials to ensure superior product quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow the BADU\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSolar Smart Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHOW THE BADU® SOLAR SMART WORKS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is how our BADUSolar Smart works: Sunlight shines on a solar panel creating DC electricity.
