Solar Water Heater

Solar water heating (SWH) is the conversion of sunlight into heat for water heating using a solar thermal collector. A variety of configurations is available at varying cost to provide solutions in different climates and latitudes. SWHs are widely used for residential and some industrial applications.  A sun-facing collector heats a working fluid that passes into a storage system for later use. SWH are active (pumped) and passive (convection-driven). They use water only, or both water and a working fluid. They are heated directly or via light- concentrating mirrors. They operate independently or as hybrids with electric or gas heaters. In large-scale installations, mirrors may concentrate sunlight into a smaller collector.

Flat Plate Collector Type (FPC)

Evacuated Tube Collector Type (ETC)

Benefits Of FPC

  • Capture sunlight better as they have a greater surface area exposed to the sun at any time
  • Are more efficient in transferring heat – up to 163% demonstrated in Australian conditions!
  • Can be used in subzero temperatures
  • Are durable and if a tube should be broken, it can be easily and cheaply replaced.
  • Provide excellent performance in overcast conditions
  • Require a smaller roof area than comparable flat plate collectors
