GroundPro Panel Racks are all-aluminum and used to mount pool panels to flat or pitched ground.  They are mounted to a 1 1/4" galvanized pipe sub-rack, the verticals of which should be cemented into the ground.  Special aluminum tees are used to connect these vertical galvanized pipe sections to the horizontal sections to which the aluminum racks themselves are then attached.  In addition, it is recommended to use an inexpensive corrugated panel material between these racks and the pool solar panel.  This gives the panel added support and reduces convection cooling off the back side of the panel itself.  This is especially beneficial in windy environments.
