Entertaining the thought of a alternate hot water source.** A: Not a lot, made a few degrees difference in pool temp. Going to use another type next year. I'd say a little over a gallon. Kimberly M. **Q: Is there a shut off, if the water get to hot?** A: There is a bypass switch if you wish to stop the water flowing through the mat at any time. **Q: How hot will the mat get if the water is not recycling?** A: The items surface is dark in color, thus absorbing sun/heat readily. I would not recommend sitting on it with bare skin. I would not recommend touching it for more than a few seconds with bare skin if a hot day in direct sunlight. It will be hot. Not warm. Hot. **Q: Can i use it with small intex pool 250×150?** A: Yes you can. This is the type of pool I have. Place it in the sunniest place you can. If you can combine it with a solar blanket would be good to not lose the heat each night. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by B***N on 27 October 2022* It needs more accessories to fit for all purposes. ### ⭐ Defective mat, 1 of 2 *by A***R on 20 December 2025* I bought two solar mats and had in a series but one is defective. It has lasted nearly 1 month before tearing underneath. Expected longer lifespan for this product.
