Why Do You Install Solar Pool Exchangers for Pool Water Heating?

Generally, pools and spas have additional amount of chlorine and bromine. It seems difficult to maintain the flow requirements at the pool or hot tub. That’s why flat plate solar heat exchangers aren’t ideal for them. This is where a special high flow pool heat exchanger comes in handy.

A solar pool exchanger can handle the higher secondary flow and high levels of Chlorine efficiently. It has the better flow characteristics, making it ideal for solar pool water heating. A titanium solar pool heat exchanger is recommended for applications that use salt water. This is highly resistant to chlorine and salt water.

Why Do You Consider Installing Solar Pool Exchangers for Solar Pool Heaters?

Northern Lights solar pool exchangers are usually designed to operate at high secondary side fluid velocities with low pressure drops. They come with a helical coiled tube design, making it unique from other shell and tube heat exchangers available. Their exceptional design ensures highly efficient heat transfer performance and diversity in their uses.

If you’re looking to maximize the overall performance of solar pool exchanger, you should get it installed in a counter-current flow process. However, the hot fluid flows through the tube or the primary side whereas the cold fluid makes its way through the shell or secondary side. For example, the pool water needs to flow through the shell side and the boiling water flows through the tube side in a swimming pool.

What are The Special Features?

Solar pool exchanger has high heat transfer heat exchanger tubes and smooth shell that ensures high velocities inside the unit. That’s why this heat exchanger is considered as a trustworthy, cost-effective, and efficient way to transfer heat in an indirect way between solar heating or boiler circuit and any spa or pool circuit.

What are the Main Reasons Behind the Installation of Solar Pool Exchangers?

• High efficient and co-efficient up to 14000 w/m2 deg C
• Heat exchange capacity three to seven times than the traditional equipment
• Stainless steel and/or titanium material enduring high temperature, pressure, and corrosion
• Helix screw thread elasticity heat exchange eliminating stress
• Big volume of flow
• Easy installation process and durability
• 5.5m/s design flux speed and less dirt
• ASME standard VIII-1
  

What are The Design Parameters of Solar Pool Exchanger?

There are four pool exchanger design parameters available i.e.

• Shell side pressure – 60 PSI (4 bar)
• Shell side temperature – 140F (60C)
• Tube side pressure – 150 PSI (10 bar)
• Tube side temperature – 250F (120C)

Why Do You Buy Solar Water Heaters?

Want to go green for residential water heating purposes? Likewise every homeowner, you might be tempted to rely on the sun for heating and energy requirements. Despite the increase in renewable and sustainable forms of energy being available, the overwhelming numbers of homeowners stay reluctant when making the switch. More often homeowners overlook the use of solar water heaters.

But you’ll get several benefits by switching to solar water heating systems. One of the main benefits is there’ll be significantly less energy bills. Though you’re going to use the solar energy to supply 60% of your home’s hot water needs, you’ll minimize your monthly energy consumption. It will result in major reduction in your monthly bill, making the solar water heating alternative economically viable.

This is where Northern Lights solar water heaters come in handy. These heating kits are specifically engineered to ensure optimal performance. However, they’re safe to operate. Solar water heating packages are available with every component you need to install them on your own.

The main advantage of these solar water heaters is that they can be installed by almost everyone. This means, you won’t need to be qualified and require any special tools for the installation. As a result, you’re going to save typical expenses of installation. This includes in the payback of your investment in a solar water heater. If you’re not self sufficient to install solar powered water heating system, you can take help from your friends or near and dear ones. However, you won’t need any licensed solar contractor for this task.

The components included in the solar water heating kits like stainless steel solar pipe make it easy for you to set up. This piping is made from corrugated stainless steel and comes with ¾” EPDM insulation and protective coating. It includes heat sensor wiring.

When you use this piping, you won’t need to get stressed about leaks and soldering. All you need is a wrench to connect the fittings and a high temperature gasket to make connection between fittings ensuring a leak-free sealing.

Northern Lights solar water heating kits have Sun Rain high temperature solar vacuum tube collectors, Re Sol Pump Station and the BS digital differential controller. Another important part of this system is the Solar Water Heater with built-in heat exchange and 4.5 KW additional heating element.

You can get the installation done by connecting the solar collector to the pump station and the pump station to the solar water tank. Plug in the pump station to a wall plug and you’re producing hot water at free of cost within minutes.

While installing a solar water heating system at home, you should follow the safety precautions properly. More often, most homeowners consider mounting the collectors on the roof. If you want to do so, you should be familiar with the ladders and roof top work.

Otherwise, you can always rely on someone professional to mount the solar collectors on the roof or mount them on the ground or on the wall. This is the most challenging part of installing a solar water heating system.
