How Revolution Solar Hot Water System Works

The solar hot water system is designed to operate automatically, taking advantage of solar energy when it is available.

The system will turn on when solar energy can be added to the water heater. The solar controller will activate the circulation module which will push water up to the solar collector(s) and begin circulation. When solar energy becomes unavailable or when heated water is not required, the system will turn off and all water will gravity drain into the drainback tank so the water cannot freeze on your roof or in your attic.

**Revolution has been designed to work with both electric and natural gas water heaters

Typically a well constructed solar panel will last twice as long as the roof, if it is installed correctly. And it will remain there, if it has been proven to withstand hurricane force winds. The real test for any panel is the extreme effects of the sun, specifically ultraviolet exposure in the case of polymer-plastic pool panels. The construction of domestic hot water panels is a proven design and represents a safe investment in your home.

The modern solar water heating system consists of a single or multiple collectors on the roof, providing the heat energy that is stored in a well insulated tank. Depending on the climate a direct or indirect exchange method may be used.

The most comprehensive testing and rating facility in the nation is dedicated to advancing the solar industry through research and promulgation of accurate independent data for the consumer. Established as an arm of the State of Florida University system it has expanded to handle the proliferation of solar technology.

The solar industry and the general public at large have benefited greatly from the testing and thermal rating systems developed by the center. All panels marketed or produced in the State of Florida must, by state statute, undergo the procedures adopted by the center before it can legally be sold in the state.

This protects the consumer from the unfortunate effects of fly-by-night contracting. Although the center does not test for longevity or durability of a given product the output ratings at least separate obvious losers.
