GLASSLINE ETC Solar Water Heater Lalith

The sun’s thermal energy heats the fluid in the solar collectors. Then, this fluid passes through a heat exchanger in the storage tank, transferring the heat to the water. The non-freezing fluid then cycles back to the collectors.

The average life expectancy of certified solar water heating systems is 20 years, much longer than standard gas or electric storage water heaters.

No electricity is required for any operation in solar water heating systems. However, in case a back up heater is provided to take care of hot water requirement during cloudy days, electricity will be required.

Solar water heaters will not only reduce the electricity bills but will also offer numerous other advantages in a cost-effective manner. Ideally, the solar panel uses energy from the sun. This means we do not have to pay a single penny to the power grid for using electricity.

Heat pumps and solar water heaters are generally more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly but may have higher upfront costs and installation requirements. Traditional geysers are simpler and cheaper to install but tend to be less energy-efficient and have a higher carbon footprint in the long run

That’s where the storage tank comes in since it ensures the water stays hot. It means the solar water heater will heat the water when the sun is available during the day, whereas the storage tank will keep it hot until you use it at night. It explains why the heater works even at night.

Solar water heaters can heat water to temperatures of up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hot enough to boil water. However, solar water heaters are not designed to boil water directly. Instead, they are designed to heat water for domestic use, such as bathing, washing dishes, and laundry

As far as sunrays are concerned, the water you consume by using a solar water heater is completely safe for your consumption.
