I have built two boxes containing PEX coil, each w 150 feet of 1/2 inch pex coiled in boxes sealed / plexi covered, placed on roof . There is a 25 foot vertical and 75 foot horizontal of PEX to deliver water from my pool to the boxes.
I put valves before and after the collectors, (maybe not close enough to the boxes.)
I thought once I fill the panels, the siphon effect would take most of the burden, but so far have not had success moving water thru the system. When I hook a garden hose, fills and goes thru the system easily. Any suggestions welcome. What am i doing wrong?
