How to protect my solar water heater in summer

It is important to cover your solar water heater when you are away on vacation.

 

Proper coverage must be done by special aluminum covers for solar water heaters that are designed to reflect up to 99% of solar radiation and fit properly on the collector without fear of being blown away by strong winds.

 

The high temperature, especially in the summer months, which can exceed 100 degrees Celsius, depending on the type of your solar water heater, can have very negative effects on your device such as:

 

Stress on the internal Boiler of the solar water heater from the high pressures it receives due to the high temperature of the water used.

 Continuous expansion of water from the expansion valve, as a result of which it does not heat properly in the winter months.

 Destruction of safety valves, due to its continuous operation, results in scale build-up.

 Faster destruction of the Anode

 Reducing the maintenance time of the device and increasing the cost of maintaining bathroom faucets, valves, etc
