Solarmax Thermo-Syphon System (Cylinder in the Roof Space)

Normally installed in high-pitched roofs where the storage cylinder is mounted inside the highest point of the roof, and the Solar panels are located outside on the roof at a lower level.

No circulation pump is required as the system functions by natural convection of thermal currents drawing cold water down from the cylinder to the bottom of the panel by gravity, then heating the water in the panel by the suns rays.

As the water heats up, it returns by convection to the cylinder where it rises to the top (of the cylinder) ready for use. An Alphstat controller is ideal for this system to control the element giving the solar priority at all times.
