An Overview of Solar Hot Water

Solar water heater systems use the sun to generate warm water for the entire home. They utilize collectors on the roof to capture the sun’s energy and storage tanks to maintain a supply of hot water for cooking, cleaning, and various other chores. Solar energy can significantly reduce or even eliminate your water heating bill. It can be used as a complete system or as a supplement for your regular water heater.

Types of Solar-Powered Water Heaters

There are several different types of solar-powered water heaters. Puget Sound Plumbing and Heating will help you determine which one best suits your needs. They all utilize storage tanks and solar collectors, but some have circulating pumps and controls. Types of solar-powered water heaters include:

Active Solar Water Heating Systems

Active solar water heating systems use circulating pumps and controls to ensure your home has warm water year-round. Styles include:

  • Direct Circulation Systems – These water heaters use pumps to circulate water through solar collectors and into the home.
  • Indirect Circulation Systems – Indirect systems work best in areas that are prone to freezing temperatures. They use pumps that circulate non-freezing, heat-transfer fluid through solar collectors and a heat exchanger, which heats the water that flows into the home.

Passive Solar Water Heating Systems

Passive systems are typically less expensive than their counterparts but are not quite as efficient. However, they tend to last longer. Styles include:

  • Integral Collector-Storage Passive Systems – These systems comprise large, black storage tanks. Sunlight heats the water directly before it flows into your home.
  • Passive Thermosyphon Systems – Thermosyphon systems heat small batches of water using metal flat plate collectors. They typically contain 40 gallons of water.
