SunRay Hybrid AC/DC Solar Pool Pumps

SunRay pumps are variable-speed, by-the-sun hybrid AC/DC pump systems: their speed varies with the sun, and the controller can set the RPM if needed.

Each one: the complete kit with solar panels sized for its pump, or the pump only.

    Mountains, red rock and open sky

    Desert mountains frame Phoenix; saguaros stand around Tucson; Sedona glows with red rock. Arizona has many landscapes, and a backyard should feel like the place around it.

    Pool seasons, close to home

    Phoenix and Tucson have hot summers and cooler winter nights. Some families keep a pool in use beyond summer; others change its schedule with the season. Start with your own pool and address, not a statewide promise.

    A living desert, a shared home

    Arizona is home to sovereign Tribal Nations and to communities with deep Mexican and Mexican American roots. The desert is a lived-in home, not just a view. Sunny welcomes neighbors in English and Spanish, with respect for each community.

    A clear morning can give way to wind, blowing dust or a summer storm. Plan panel placement with a licensed local installer and ask about shade, safe access and the local mounting rules. Sunny never promises a weather rating.

    From the low desert to the high country

    Yuma and the Phoenix Valley are not Flagstaff. Elevation, shade and the season change how a backyard gets sun. SunRay begins with the visitor’s address and the kit the quote selects.

    Phoenix

    The Valley pairs long, hot summers with cooler winter evenings. Backyard pools sit beneath desert mountains, from Phoenix to its neighboring communities.

    Tucson

    Saguaros and mountain ranges surround Tucson. Summer swimming and cooler winter nights call for a pool plan that follows the home’s actual use.

    • Saguaro National Park
    • The Santa Catalina Mountains
    • The Tucson Mountains
  • Mesa

    Mesa and the East Valley meet the desert near the Superstition Mountains. Start with the sun and shade at your own home before choosing a kit.

    • The Superstition Mountains nearby
    • The Salt River
  • Scottsdale

    Desert foothills and the McDowell Mountains give Scottsdale its backdrop. Trees, walls and rooflines still make every pool’s panel placement different.

    Red sandstone and the green corridor of Oak Creek give Sedona its colors. Hills and trees make an address-specific look at shade especially useful.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Answers for people and their AI agents.

The same answers Sunny gives, in plain words. Your AI agent can read them too.

Are these pumps variable speed?

Yes. SunRay pumps are variable-speed, by-the-sun hybrid AC/DC pump systems: their speed varies with the sun, and the controller can set the RPM if needed.

What is a solar pool pump?

A solar pool pump is a pool pump that runs on DC power from its own solar panels, so it circulates and filters your water while the sun is up. Every SunRay pump is a hybrid AC/DC pump, made for pool owners who want the sun to do the daily work.

Can solar panels run a pool pump?

Runs 100% on the sun. You don't need AC at all. Home AC power is optional and capable.

What comes in a solar pool pump kit?

A complete SunRay kit pairs the hybrid AC/DC pump with solar panels sized for that pump. If you already have panels, you can buy the pump only.

How much does a solar pool pump cost?

SunRay complete kits run from $1,999 for the 1/2 HP to $5,999 for the 3 HP, each with solar panels sized for its pump. Already have panels? The pump alone starts at $999.

What is a hybrid AC/DC pool pump?

It is a pump that runs on DC power from its solar panels and can also run on home AC power. With AC connected, the pump can draw on it automatically when needed.

What size solar pool pump do I need?

Match the pump to your pool's gallons: 1/2 HP for above-ground pools of about 1,000 to 5,000 gallons; 1 HP for above-ground pools over 5,000 gallons and in-ground pools from 5,000 to about 20,000 gallons. Move up to 1.5 HP up to about 25,000 gallons, 2 HP up to about 35,000 gallons and 3 HP above 35,000 gallons.

How do I install a solar pool pump?

Start with a sunny spot for the panels, your pool plumbing and the instructions for your SunRay kit. A qualified local installer can check the mount, the wiring and any permit your town asks for.

Can a solar pump run an in-ground pool?

Yes, in-ground pools from 5,000 to about 20,000 gallons take the 1 HP kit. Bigger in-ground pools move up to the 1.5, 2 or 3 HP kit.

How does a solar pool pump work?

Sunlight hits the solar panels, they make DC power, and the pump turns that power straight into water flow through your filter. When you connect home AC power, the hybrid pump can also bring it in automatically when needed, such as for a spa after dark.

What is the best solar pool pump?

The best pump is the one sized for your pool and your sun. SunRay makes hybrid AC/DC pumps from 1/2 HP to 3 HP, so you run on sunlight and still have home power when you want it.

How many panels will I need?

Each SunRay kit is complete, with solar panels sized for its pump: you choose the kit, and its panels come with it. The quote picks the kit by your pool size and the sun at your address.

Where can I buy a solar pool pump in Arizona?

Right here: we sell SunRay solar pool pump kits to pool owners across Arizona, and each order ships to your door. Sunny can help you pick the kit and check out in English or Spanish.

Is there a solar pool pump for above-ground pools?

Yes, the 1/2 HP kit is made for above-ground pools of about 1,000 to 5,000 gallons, and the 1 HP kit takes larger above-ground pools over 5,000 gallons. Both come complete, with panels matched to the pump.

What about monsoon clouds and blowing dust?

Runs on solar power. Home power is optional and switches on by itself when needed, for example a spa at night. Ask a licensed local installer about mounting and safe panel care for your site; do not assume a storm or wind rating.

Does a solar pool pump work with my pool filter?

It does: a SunRay pump moves your water through the same circulation and filter system. Tell Sunny your filter model so the kit matches the flow you need.

How much can I save?

Up to 30%, varies by sun and rate. The quote shows your earliest payback against the kit price.

Can I convert my existing pool pump to solar?

Yes, a SunRay hybrid AC/DC pump with its own solar panels replaces the pump you have today. Share your current pump's label and your filter details, and Sunny will match the kit.

How long is each kit covered?

Every SunRay kit carries a 2-year warranty.

Where do you ship, and what does shipping cost?

Free shipping on every SunRay pump and kit within the continental US. Free shipping to every Hawaiian island. Puerto Rico ships free by U.S. Postal Service.

Can I return a kit?

30-day returns on unopened kits: the buyer pays the return freight, and shipping damage is reported within 48 hours of delivery.

Do solar pool pumps work on cloudy days?

Yes. SunRay sizes the kit for your pool and location, and optional home AC power can take over automatically when needed. Solar output follows the available sunlight, so discuss your circulation schedule when choosing the kit.

Can a solar pool pump run at night?

Yes. SunRay uses the sun for daytime circulation. Home AC power is optional and capable; connect it if you want the pump to run after dark. The hybrid system can bring in AC automatically when needed.

Does my APS or SRP plan matter for a solar pool pump?

Your plan is on your own bill. On APS, the Time-of-Use 4pm-7pm Weekdays plans have on-peak hours of 4 to 7 p.m. on weekdays. On SRP, Conserve 6-9 p.m. and Save has on-peak hours of 6 to 9 p.m., and Manage Demand 5-10 p.m. and Save 5 to 10 p.m., Monday to Friday. A SunRay pump runs on the sun by day. The quote shows your earliest payback against the kit price.
