Ground Mounted Solar Hot Water Systems

Ground mounted solar water heaters work by absorbing energy from the sun s rays in roof mounted solar collectors and transferring it to the water stored in the ground mounted storage tank.

Ground mounted solar hot water systems.

Ground mounted systems employ inbuilt pumps to push the fluid through the system. Long runs are particularly susceptible to seasonal heaving of the soil. Thermosiphon roof mounted solar hot water solahart roof mounted tank systems save space at ground level and their elegant simplicity makes them efficient and reliable. Unlike roof mounted heaters they need to use a pump to send the water from the rooftop collectors to the tank thus making future maintenance much simpler for many years.

Even though 90 of all solar hot water systems use anti freeze between the collectors and the solar heat exchanger see schematic the supply and return lines should still be below the frost line. Their flat panel collectors are composed of superior quality copper which ensures an optimal solar energy transfer and anodized alloy which makes them more tolerant to the harsh australian weather conditions. Solargain ground mounted solar hot water systems are highly performing long lasting and climate proof. Rheem s split design solar hot water heater systems offer the energy saving benefits of solar without the worry of a large tank on your roof.

All solahart solar hot water systems where the tank is installed on the roof use the thermosiphon principle to collect heat from the sun and transfer it to your water.
