spf

SPF has a Patented “Solar Fence” which is primarily used for heating swimming pools and/or spas- (all in-ground pools require the installation of a fence) – and also have a “Bolt-On” product to adapt onto existing fences. Future applications can be modified to heat (or preheat) domestic water sources. The water runs thru a Patented system within the fence – but simultaneously heats the water while the invention serves the purpose of a traditional fence structurally, and decoratively.
