Note: matching media

Ice area in winter do not use softened water used to do thermal media, thermal media plus inhibitors, defoamers, etc., sufficient to prevent the collector scale.

Be sure to use the winter ice area do heat transfer medium used antifreeze, antifreeze recommend the use of ethylene glycol solution, the freezing point of antifreeze to at least the local minimum temperature lower than 10 ?. See instructions antifreeze antifreeze is valid, once a year should be checked for anti-freeze. Check the contents, including the freezing point, density, and also used in antifreeze should be visually checked and found that density, thickening, increased freezing and antifreeze become turbid, bad, taste, foam, etc. should be replaced.

3, Lightning

Collector installed on the roof, to prevent being struck by lightning, you need to install the lightning protection within the scope of effective protection, such as roof or with no lightning protection lightning protection facilities, but not water heater, you need to make a lightning rod and ground facilities .

Frequency of heat pipe should be sun

\"Put out of the water pipes can be a tea.\" Recently, many people reflect the last few days of hot weather, to a \"heat stroke\" phenomenon. Subsequently, the reporter from the sale of solar water heater maintenance department was informed that the weather is too cold or hot water pipe burst easily lead to solar water heaters, solar water should do the protective measures.

    \"Put out of the water pipes can be a tea.\" Recently, many people reflect the last few days of hot weather, solar water heaters to a \"heat stroke\" phenomenon. Subsequently, the reporter from the sale of solar water heater maintenance department was informed that the weather is too cold or hot water pipe burst easily lead to solar water heaters, solar water should do the protective measures.

Solar water heaters frequently \"heat stroke\"

Evening of August 22, Yuetang board who lives in the garden pond shop Eastcom Miss Liu Yi, suddenly found a home kitchen was flooded, the water from the wash basin has been under the cabinets out.

Liu Yi view that open the door, turned out to be a crack pipe solar water heater, water is kept out. She quickly turned off the button, Sheung Shui, solar energy, it makes the water stop. \"A week, solar water heater for two pipes.\" Liu Yi said.

Maintenance workers, said Liu Yi family outside a solar water without the insulation pipe, insulation tube of water play a protective role, this is no pipe water pipe insulation protection in the sun, the water pipe was broken aging.

Repair business busy

Then we arrived at the South Road construction Yuetang industrial market sales of a brand solar water heater maintenance department. Maintenance man described Zhu Shifu, summer and winter is the peak of solar water heater maintenance.

\"Want to change more than a dozen more to the day when the root pipe.\" Zhu Shifu said, almost all recent home maintenance to be replaced because of water pipes burst water pipes. The weather is too hot or cold water pipe solar water heater easily lead to physical changes occur, coupled with improper use, easy to broken water pipes, causing leaks.

To this end, Zhu Shifu remind the general public, solar water heaters, hot water or heating pipe in the water easily when burst, sooner or later the public is best to lower temperatures in cold water; In addition, outdoor solar water pipes are wrapped in silver paper under pipe insulation, specifically used for the water, \"sun\", and the public can themselves check whether there is insulation tube defects, if timely fill in order to prevent solar aging water pipes.
