- Hot and cold water piping system. 0.5 inches (½”) Stop-cock have to be standby in 10 feet below/nearby the Solar Water heater, is either inside or outside ceiling.
- 15 Amp Power Point required to be ready in 10 feet below/nearby the solar water heater.
- If the house is require a pump, will recommend to install it before install solar.
- Water and electricity supply
Aquasolar hot water system can be mounted at any position, however we will usually recommend that the Solar water heater should be installed at an inclination. We advise you to installation at highest location for optimum heat absorption.
For flat roof installation, an angled aluminium rack should be installed to provide necessary inclination.

7. When should I turn on the heating element?
- Raining season
- Over usage of hot water
- Hazy season
A short period of rainfall will not affect the supply of hot water because AQUASOLAR’s tanks are insulated with 50mm of high-density polyurethane and fiberglass wool to retain heats. On an average, it heats water to about 70oC in the day and loses only about 8% of heat at night. Even if it is overcast, there is enough radiated heat to maintain the temperatures of the water at a comfortable level. However, if there are few days of cloudy day, it would require to switch on the backup heater.
9. Do I need to install a water pressure Pump for the solar?
All AQUASOLAR™ products are high-pressure systems which means you only need one water pump to drive both cold and hot water throughout the house. AQUASOLAR is not need to have a pump for its circulation through the system.
Our solar system uses Thermosiphon system in heating, when the water is heated it rises. However, we are always recommend customer to purchase a pump for the cold water tank to increase the pressure of cold water for a better enjoyment.
10. How much do I save?
Appliances with heating elements consume the most electricity in our homes. Using solar water heaters will help you make significant savings when compared to the cost of purchasing, installing and using instant heaters and boilers.

Each AQUASOLARTM product features high quality aluminium, copper and stainless steel construction that offers years of trouble-free ownership and usage.
Each AQUASOLARTM water heating system comes with two collector panels – each with 10 copper risers paired with 2.97m2 of collector fins with selective black coating for optimal heat conversion and performance-to-weight ratio.
Hot water is stored in a marine-grade 316L steel storage tank, which requires no sacrificial anodes to replace or rust and cracks to worry about. 316L steel tanks offer superior performance over industry standard 304 steel tanks.
All AQUASOLARTM products are designed to perform under high-pressure. High pressure solar heaters do not create a loss of pressure when water passes through it, which means homes using such systems only require one water pressure pump. On the other hand, low-pressure systems require one water pump for the cold water and another for the hot water.
THE THERMOSIPHON PRINCIPLE
AQUASOLARTM products rely on the thermosiphon principle to drive water through its system. Thermosiphon occurs when heated liquid rises and is replaced by cooler liquid in a closed circuit. As the cycle is repeated, the temperature of the liquid in the entire system is gradually raised.
Because there are no pumps or motors, AQUASOLARTM products are cost-effective to own, use and maintain.
