There is no longer any question that the sun will be our primary energy source for the future. Solar water heating is your opportunity to make use of the free power of the sun.
At 1A SOLAR & PLUMBING we specialize in solar solutions that suites the needs and pockets of our clients and ensure years of hassle free hot water.
We are able to offer excellent local systems as well as certain imported products, whose quality surpasses local and international standards and offers the best price effectiveness for our clients.
System Configurations
Close coupled solar water heater:
In this arrangement, both the solar geyser and solar collector are placed outside on the north facing roof
surface or on a stand on a flat surface facing north. As the sun heats the solar collectors, heat is transferred to
the hot water cylinder by a thermo siphonic action. This system is suitable for flat or pitched roofs.
Split thermosiphon solar water heater
In this arrangement the solar collector is placed outside on the north facing roof surface and the solar geyser
is fitted inside the roof space, above the height of the solar collector. As the sun heats the solar collectors,
heat is transferred to the hot water cylinder by a thermo siphonic action. This system is suitable for roofs with
sufficient pitch and enough roof-space, or gable mounted systems.
Split pumped solar water heater
This is the most versatile of all installation types. The solar collectors are placed on the north facing roof , while
the solar geyser may be placed conveniently in a location of choice, for example: roofspace, hot water cylinder cupboard,
plant room, ect…
A dedicated circulation pump is used to move water from the solar collector to the solar geyser. This pump may be solar
powered or may also be operated with 220V power.
