Cannot be used.
Since the solar barrel was removed, the solar water heater is no longer necessary. If you do not disassemble the heat collector on the exterior wall and leave it exposed to sunlight and rain, it will become a safety hazard after rusting. This is equivalent to leaving yourself a landmine that can cause big trouble at any time. It's definitely dangerous.
The installation and removal procedures for solar water heaters are very complicated. If they are installed or removed incorrectly, it will not only cause safety hazards, but also affect their appearance. In addition, solar water heaters are generally installed on the roofs of buildings, which makes their daily maintenance very tedious for residents.
It is very annoying to have a leak problem in a solar water heater at home. Once a leak occurs, you need to know where itshe flees. For example, the water heater's insulated barrel may be insulated. the solar water heater is leaking, how to remedy this situation?
1. How to Fix a Leak in the Insulated Barrel of a Solar Water Heater
1. Leaks in a solar-insulated barrel are relatively rare. After inspection, it was determined that the coating. water tank was leaking. If there is a leak, the seal could be damaged. After the solar water heater has been used for many years, it is normal for the sealing ring to be damaged. We can replace it with a silicone solar ring directly, which can avoid water leakage problems in the future.
2. If it is not a problem with the sealing ring, it is possible that the insulation barrel of your solar water heater has been in poor condition for a long time and has been discarded, because such Insulation barrels have a certain lifespan. When thelife is reached, the thermal insulation barrel will rust and water leakage will naturally occur, so just replace it with a new solar thermal insulation barrel.
2. Other Solar Water Heater Leakage Problems
1. If the water pipe is leaking, especially in its upper water pipe, generally it is mainly because the PPR water pipe is passing. After years of damage, it has become old and just needs to be replaced with new solar water pipes.
2. If there is a water leak from the valve, it is mainly because the valve is defective. Tighten it first and see if there will be no more leaking problems. If it doesn't work, replace it. with a new valve or It is also possible to use a solenoid valve.
3. If the solar heating tube leaks, generally speaking, it is mainly caused by rust damage of the electric heater,so you can directly replace it with a new seal ring to solve the leakage problem. .
Editor Summary: After using the solar water heater for a while, if water leakage occurs, we don't need to worry. First we need to find out what type of water leak it is, and. then replace it. Basically, the leak can be fixed.
