The Satchwell HOTFLO cistern type thermo-siphon solar system
1. SYSTEM INFORMATION / SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The function of this Solar Water Heater (SWH) is to use the energy from the sun to heat water. The heating of the water is
achieved via the Flat Plate Collector. The Flat Plate Collector is filled with water which is heated during the daylight hours and
this hot water is stored in the main tank. The hot water rises in the Collector and is replaced by the cooler water which is at the
lower level of the main tank. This cycle is repeated continuously throughout the day thus heating the water in the main tank.
Cold water is supplied to the system as the hot water is drawn from the main tank. The cold water is supplied to the main tank
via a header tank (cistern) which is mounted on top of the main tank. The cold water mains supply is connected to the cistern
The following minimum requirements are in addition and may be in duplication to any requirements as
