Active solar water heating swh systems comprise five main elements.
This is because combi boilers heat water directly from the mains water supply and don t have a tank.
Solar water heating systems that use an antifreeze solution propylene glycol or ethylene glycol as a heat transfer fluid have effective freeze protection as long as the proper antifreeze concentration is maintained.
Most new solar homes feature a variation of one kind or another.
Glycol or some equivalent antifreeze fluid fills.
When a single wall heat exchanger fails it is possible for the heat transfer fluid in the coil to leak into the potable water.
