How Solar Works?
Solar hot water heaters use the sun’s energy to heat water in much the same way as water in a hose left on the lawn gets on a sunny day. In a direct heating system, water is heated as it circulates through flat glazed panels (solar collectors), located on the roof of a house. The heated water is then stored in an insulated storage tank, located either directly above the collectors or on the ground like a conventional hot water system.
A “booster” heater is also included in the system to boost water temperature on days when the solar energy may be insufficient to meet your hot water requirements. Boosters may be run on off peak electricity, or gas (natural or LPG).
