All systems are designed to be installed with existing
or added standard water heating tanks. They are designed to connect to
any existing hot water tank.
No tanks are included with these system prices. In general, systems
should be sized to have a minimum of 1 gallon of storage per sq./ ft. of
collector area. Systems 1, 2 and 3 are open-loop systems, meaning
that they heat the water that is used throughout the house. These
systems are not designed for freezing conditions. If there is a freeze,
these systems must be drained prior to the freeze. There are freeze-protective
options available and recommended, but they are designed for short-term
cold spells only. If you are not sure which system to get, order
the System 3 with all the features. Figure one panel for every 2-3
people.
Please feel free to call with any questions: (877) 713-7858.
