Solar Water Heating System Maintenance and Repair
Solar energy systems require periodic inspections and routine maintenance to
keep them operating efficiently. Also, from time to time, components may
need repair or replacement.
You might be able to handle some of the inspections and maintenance
Yesterday I hooked up my solar heater for my swimming pool as the day time
temps have been in the 80's out here. After hooking it up and turning the
pump on I heard water leaking. So I called my wife out to see where it was
leaking. At the top end of the panels there is a piece of PVC pipe,
None that I know of. Replace the pipes, it's easey enough. cut them
where the cracs stop, and use two pvc joins, a little sleave that fits
around the pipe, and pvc cement or pvc glue, adding two peaces of new
pipes for the cracked part. Leave for about 12 hours before allowing
water to flow
to
have a look at the PVC pipe where the panels meet the pipe to make sure I'm
correct.
