Solar panels built into the roof of a house

In principle, the same scheme of work is embedded in the functioning of the heating system with the natural movement of the coolant: warmer water rises to the top due to cooler water. The main difference between natural heating and solar coolant is only the method of heating the water - with a collector, the water is heated by the sun.


Based on this principle, we can conclude that the design of the solar coolant is very simple: a vertically located coil, in which the water gradually rises upward as it heats up, and then enters the storage tank, from which the already heated liquid is collected. In order for solar collectors for the home, made with your own hands, to work more efficiently, it is necessary to establish a natural movement of liquid.

Based on the above-mentioned subtleties and nuances of the operation of collectors, the principle of installing numerous units of alternative solar heaters is formed. In order for the jordan mobile database circulation of liquid to be properly ensured without using a pump, the solar collector for heating should be located on the highest part of the building (often on the roof), and the storage tank - slightly below the coolant (for example, in the attic).

Making a solar collector with your own hands
The main component of the solar collector is its base. The most optimal solution for its assembly is considered to be assembly from a wide plastic sheet. You can also use a material such as OSYU-2. But in order for it to meet all quality requirements, it will have to be carefully protected from potential moisture. But even if all these measures are taken, you cannot count on a long service life of the base, since wood is not durable. Therefore, a plastic sheet will be the best material for making a base - it is strong, durable and lightweight.
