Why Solar Water Heater?

Cost-saving

Installing a solar water heater system is a sound investment. Since it is virtually maintenance-free and doesnot cost a cent to run, you pay once for the simply luxury of using hot water. Compare this with your electricity or gas bills month after month. While they keep accumulating over the years, a solar water heater sustains itself on the infinite rays of the sun. Electrical appliances are generally guaranteed for only 36 months, but with a solar water heater, you and your family will be assured of cost-free hot water for years to come.

Safety

A solar water heater is extremely user-friendly. Just turn on the tap for hot water. Even a small child can do it. Water is heated to about 70oC and the safety feature of a relief valve controls the heat pressure. With the conventional electric heaters, there is always the fear of an electric or gas leakage. A solar water heater, however, has no electrical wiring of any kind and works safely on the sun’s heat. Potential gas leaking, dangerous explosions and electrical mishaps will be a thing of the past.

Convenience

A solar water heater combines instant hot water with the therapeutic pressure of jet showers, an advantage unmatched by gas or electric water heaters. You are assured of instant hot water at a constant temperature and pressure, any time of the day and night. Whether for bathing, washing clothes and greasy dishes, you can use as much hot water as you like without worrying about the electricity bills. It can also be used as preheated water for cooking and boiling. A solar water heater has the advantage of providing several water outlets with hot water at the same time. And with a solar water heater, there is no power failure to contend with. When your neighbout is bathing in the cold and dark, you can enjoy a warm therapeutic bath, what can be more convenient?

Modern Living

More and more people are adopting environmentally friendly lifestyles. Solar water heaters complement this modern lifestyle by providing the simple luxury of hot water without exhausting the earth’s resources or releasing carbon into the air through consumption of electricity. The solar water heater is the responsible choice for the modern consumer – an investment for future generations.

How does it work?

The L series uses Thermosiphon system in heating. The absorber collector is placed below the storage tank, from which cold water flows into the collectro where it is heated to a desired temperature. When sun is on the Solar Panel, the water in the panel is heated, becomes less dense and rises up into the Storage Tank. This continuous natural circulation of the water through the collector and tank heats the tank water over time, as flow stops as soon as the collector cold below the tank temperature.
