How is the solar heater perform this 2day?

Since this few days cloudy and raining almost whole day, it is best to check and know the performing of the solar heater.

The test will be this morning. If really efficient dint need to switch on backup power

I finally switched on the electric heater this evening. The water was getting cool, Last shower has to turn fully hot to get comfy tempreture.

That's good performance. At least know how best the solar heater can generate the hot water with this few days cold weather.

Did you control the hot water flow to ensure you have at least "not as hot as" water during the cloudy weather.

Best try will be this coming few months as rainy and cloudy season around the corner.

For those who are interested to get to know more about solar water heater or would like to purchase it, now is the best time We will b exhibiting in Homedec @ KLCC from 18-21 Oct for SOLAR POWER.

Hi


In terms of adding the solar power, how about the old piping. Shall Iask the contractor to remove the whole housing piping to copper piping.

it depends on the piping condition, if very old, change it. For cold water piping, get PVC is good enough

Boil a 100liter of water take how long? Need an hr?

If using 3kw heating element should be one hour.

Can cost 50sen for a tank. Provided boil to 60deg.

Using Microsolar M60VTHE. No backup heater.

This Nov it rained whole day for the last 3-4 days. Today full sun since morning so should be recharging. Need only 3-4 hours to get 60-70deg but if 6-8hrs water should be in the high 80-90s. While there was no sun during the day, the rate of heat decay was such that we gradually had to had the shower mixer turned slightly left to get barely 37-39deg temp mix. Even if it's cloudy it should recharge.

Hi zheilwane, i'm interested on your Solar Power, but which type is better? flat panel or vacuum tube type?

Could you please pm me your best price for both type? any promotion or package available if include the pump? preferably Grundfos pump. For small family (2 to 3 person) only. Many Thanks.

Microsolar is very efficient but in weather like this, a backup heater really comes in handy.
