1. The water tank is leaking. It is relatively rare for the insulation barrel of the solar water heater to leak. If after inspection it is found that the inner tank of the water tank is indeed leaking, then you should consider replacing the solar water. reservoir. The quality and age of the water tank coating directly causes the water tank to rust and leak. In this case, you can ask the master to come and replace a few silicone solar rings.
2. Water pipes are leaking. If the water pipes are leaking or the water pipes are leaking, it is because the PPR water pipes or aluminum-plastic pipes have aged after years of exposure to wind and sun. in this case, the solar hot water must be replaced.
3. The solar valve is leaking. If the valve is leaking, it means the valve is defective. In this case, a new solar valve or solenoid valve must be replaced.
4. The exit ofThe solar exhaust is leaking. In this case, you need to call the after-sales service and find professional maintenance personnel to replace the temperature and water level meter or a new solar meter.
5. The solar heating pipe is leaking and the electric heating position of the solar heating pipe is leaking. This means that the electric heater is rusty and damaged, and a new sealing ring or electric heater rod should be used. Is handed over, replaced.
What causes solar water leaks?
1. If the vacuum tube is broken, water will leak out. If the solder joint is cracked, water will collect on the exhaust tee and flow out.
2. Water is leaking from the joint between the upper and lower water pipes and the water tank. The pipe connection may be loose or the pipe fittings may not be easy to use. or the buse of water is not waterproof. The shower is leaking. Parts such as valves or metal pipes may be abnormal.
3. The seal is damaged or loose, causing water to leak at the junction of the vacuum tube and water tank. The silicone ring may not be easy to use. the seal is not waterproof. The core of the internal bladder is different from that of the external envelope.
4. If other parts are in good condition, it is not the fault of the pipes and the water tank. A leak is usually a problem with the pipe or water tank. If there is no leak and there is no water in the water tank, that means there is no water in the first place. It is likely that the water supply valve is faulty. If it has not yet been repaired, it is recommended to cover the pipe, protect it from the sun, and then heat it to prevent it from bursting.
How to managesolar water leaks?
1. If the vacuum tube leaks, you can only replace it with a new vacuum tube
2. is leaking, it means the silicone ring is broken, replace it with a new one;
3. If the upper exhaust is leaking, you need to remove the overflow pipe by 1cm;
< p>4. If the water inlet is leaking, you need to disassemble the faucet and install it again.How to prevent leaks from solar water heaters?
1. Drain waste water frequently to prevent pipe blockages, and clean the water tank frequently to ensure good water quality.
2. Always clean the trash on the transparent cover to ensure that the cover is clean and the light transmission is normal. Check if the transparent cover is damaged. If damaged, replace it immediately.
3. Check its vacuum tube frequently. If the barium-titanium getter insider becomes dark, this means that the heat collector tube needs to be replaced. The vacuum tube reflector also needs to be cleaned together.
4. Inspect and check if all parts are intact and if the heat absorbing covering of the collector has fallen off. All supports, pipes, etc. should be maintained once a year to prevent rust.
5. Prevent the circulation system from working and causing suffocation, which will cause the temperature inside the collector to be too high, damage the coating, damage the insulation layer of the box, break the glass, etc.
What should you pay attention to when using solar water heaters?
1. If there is a lack of water in the water tank of the solar water heater, the water should not be refilled immediately. Indeed, when a vacuum tube is exposed to sunlight, its surface temperature is likely to reach aroundron two thousand degrees. Once it comes into contact with water, the tube explodes. If you want to stock up on water, you must wait until sunset or before sunrise.
2. If you want to install auxiliary heating equipment for the solar water heater, you should regularly check whether the equipment or heat exchanger can work normally, and also check whether the leak protector can work normally. And if you use heating equipment, the amount of water in the water tank should exceed half of the tank.
3. If a heating tape is installed on a solar water heater, the most basic guarantee is that the quality of the heating tape must be good and there should be no problems. It should also be noted that if the power supply is unstable, it cannot be used, and after defrosting, the heating tape should be turned off in time to avoidavoid unnecessary problems.
4. Since the solar water heater is installed on the roof, attention should be paid to its firm installation, otherwise unnecessary safety accidents may occur in strong winds. And on windy days, you can fill the water heater with water to increase its weight.
If the water tank of the solar water heater is leaking, first confirm the leak location of the water tank, and then use different methods according to different parts. Water tank leaks usually occur in the following situations:
First, the connector is leaking, such as the connection between the upper water pipe and the lower water pipe. Simply tighten the gasket or replace the gasket.
Secondly, if the sewage outlet is leaking, it can be solved by replacing the sewage outlet cap or adding raw material tape (or string or plastic).cotton thread).
Third, the riveting gap leaks. This is a problem with the water tank liner. The only solution is to replace the water tank.
Fourth, if there is water leakage at the connection with the suction pipe, simply replace the sealing ring (not the dust ring).
