As many people have come to realize, electricity supply is limited & generally there isn’t enough to go around resulting in regular power outages so alternatives in the form of Solar power are becoming attractive options.
In fact you can create an effective solar water heating system with this free energy source.
Building Your Own Solar Geyser
Whilst getting your solar water heating system installed professionally could cost you more than you had hoped for, the DIY solar geyser option is something that any competent handyman could manage.
It’s also worth noting that building a homemade solar geyser can be done with material that can be purchased from your local hardware store and it won’t cost a fortune either.
Also remember that solar geysers are not the same as the normal electric geyser in your roof however it is possible to convert your existing geyser into a “solar geyser”.
It is advisable to get an expert to do this for you as your solar panel may not be compatible with the high pressure geyser in your home.
Although it adds to the cost it is advisable to use a solar geyser tank rather than modifying the electric one as the purpose built solar tank is better insulated, works more efficiently with solar collectors and has a longer life.
Another cost benefit to installing your own solar water heating system is that you would probably be able to get a significant rebate from the national power supplier for reducing the power demand on their limited resources.
So if you think you are up to building & installing your own solar water geyser, all you need is a decent step-by-step guide to walk you through the whole process.
