Detailed Product Description

Thermosiphon solar collectors provide Mains Pressure pre-heating via a high efficiency
copper coil heat exchanger installed within the solar collector tank. The
way in which the Mains Pressure solar collector heats water is the same as the non
pressure solar collector. Instead of using the water in the tank directly, as
the Non pressure does, the type uses a 45-60 meters copper coil heat exchanger
inside the tank which provides more than 1.2m² of heat transfer area. When
water flows though the coil, it absorbs heat from the water inside the solar collector
tank.

The solar collector tank is therefore for thermal storage. One advantage of this
system is that almost no water is introduced into the tank (apart from occasional
topping up), so corrosion and scale buildup are almost totally eliminated. Tanks
are designed for low to medium pressure applications, using a gravity feed tank
or pressure reduction valve. Direct connection to Mains Pressure water supply
is not permitted. Please check your local building / plumbing regulations regarding
the installation of water tanks.
