SOLAR WATER HEATING SYSTEM SERVICE
Properly maintained, your solar water heater system will provide years of dependable trouble-free service.

It is suggested that a routine preventive maintenance program be established and followed by the user.

It is further recommended that a periodic inspection of the operating controls, heating element and wiring should be made by service personnel qualified in appliance repair.

At least quarterly:

• Clean collector glass periodically to remove accumulated dust and dirt.

• Trim trees near collectors.

At least annually:

• Lift and release the lever handle on the temperature and pressure relief valve, located on the

Left side of the thermo siphon tank, to make certain the valve operates freely.

• Allow several gallons to flush through the discharge line. Make certain the discharged water is

Directed to an open drain.

• The anode rod should be removed from the water heater’s tank for inspection and replaced

When more than 6″ of core wire is exposed at either end of the rod

• Check all valves and electrical equipment.

• Flush the tank with cold water until the pressure is relieved, some of the water is drained, and

The cold water supply is turned off before removing anode rod.

• Check fluid level in closed loop. Replace fluid if necessary.
