Repairs
to existing systems, not installed by Sarum Solar
We try to repair and restore existing solar thermal
systems, rather than sell you a new one by default.
 |
Sadly we have
come across a lot of systems installed during the last 5 years
that are in need of repair. This often requires:
- capping or valving any automatic air
vents
- replacing the expansion vessel
- adding a fill/drain unit and flow setter
- replacing the anti-freeze
We have also come across fairly young evacuated
tube systems where more than 50% of tubes have failed (loss
of vacuum), and no replacement tubes can be found. Solar systems
that have been frequently topped with water using a filling
loop may be beyond repair due to calcification and charring
inside the collector manifold. |
We have restored a number of older flat panel
systems, some over two decades old. This usually involves the replacement
of:
- collector covers (if plastic)
- controller
- pump
- expansion vessel (if system is pressurised)
- anti-freeze
Prior to commencement of any work we will estimate
the cost of the repair as accurately as possible. No fixed-price
quotations can be given, and all work is charged by the hour.
