The Solar Revolution Begins

Over a quarter of a century ago, FAFCO engineers set about the daunting task of redefining the design and manufacturing standards of solar pool heating systems. The goal was to create a solar pool heating system with dramatically increased performance capabilities and more heating power on demand. In 1972, the world was introduced to the FAFCO Solar Pool Heating System and today it’s still the high-performance standard by which all other solar systems are measured.

In 1976, Fafco began blending and extruding all of their solar panel materials at our their manufacturing plant. Since then, Fafco has refined and improved solar technology even more. With over 20 international and domestic patents for innovations like vacuum relief valves, water flow metering systems, roof panel fastening devices, and auto control systems, FAFCO continues to set standards for the solar industry worldwide.
