                             SOLAR WATER HEATING Q & A 's  HERE  

     Schuco are one of Europe's largest manufacturers of solar thermal and photovoltaic modules. If you have a project - a single house or swimming pool, a large industrial unit or office block , a residential home or school - we can design and install a Schuco system that meets the highest technical standards of performance and efficiency.

    ON-ROOF SOLAR SYSTEM

 HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS.

In the UK the ideal is for the solar collector panels to be facing due south and at an angle between 30 and 65 degrees from horizontal. If your roof ridge runs north/south a system of two panels can be used.

A central heating pump forces water through a coiled pipe in the solar panel where it is heated by the sun. The heated water then flows down and through a second (lower) coil in your hot water cylinder, referred to as a solar cylinder or twin-coil cylinder. The water flowing around the solar system is used to heat the water in the cylinder indirectly. This means that no water in the Solar Heating system will come into contact with water in your hot water cylinder. The heat is transferred, not the water.

The slightly cooled water is then returned back to the solar panel via the pump. The controller box continuously compares the temperature in the panel against that in the hot water cylinder. The pump is switched on when the water temperature in the panel is hotter than the water in the cylinder and switches off when the reverse conditions apply. As long as the water in the hot water cylinder is at the required temperature, your existing boiler will not switch on.

In the UK, solar water heating systems for the home are designed to work in conjunction with another water heating system, such as a gas, oil or wood boiler. It is possible to use solar to supply some low-grade heat for an under-floor heating system but other heat input will be required. This is certainly true if you have radiators or some combination of radiators and underfloor heating.

An average household SWH system will provide almost all your hot water over the summer. Through the rest of the year it will pre-heat the water which will then be brought up to temperature by the conventional hot water system. Over the course of a whole year most solar panels should provide around 60% of the total energy used by your hot water system.

*Cylinder and system sizing can only be a rough guide. It depends on whether residents are in or out most of the day, prefer a shower to a bath, use a washing machine regularly and so on. A Residential Nursing Home has a very different water use pattern compared to a 2-person household where both people are out at work all day!
