How does it work?
How Baxi Solarflo
TM
works
The collector panels work by
transferring heat into a fluid
that is circulated to a solar coil
in the base of the hot water
storage cylinder. Here, the
heat is transferred into the
stored domestic hot water. The
cooled fluid is then circulated
back to the solar collectors to
be re-heated, and the cycle is
repeated.
Solar thermal water heating devices make use of
free energy from the most abundant source we
have – the Sun
Flat plate collector panels or evacuated tubes, either fitted onto existing
roofs or built into the roof structure of new build properties, absorb energy
from the Sun and heat water in a specially designed water storage cylinder
such as the Megaflo Eco Solar
®
or the Megalife Solar
®
from Heatrae Sadia.
In the summer, this system can supply up to 90% of a home’s hot water
and even on dull days some hot water can be produced. Over the year, a
well designed solar package provides approximately 55% of the annual
domestic hot water demand, and can substantially reduce
carbon emissions.
