There are several different systems of solar water heaters. Each one with its advantages and inconveniences.
To get the best performance and that your installation is successful, the location of the solar collectors is crucial.To do this, consider the orientation of buildings, vegetation and neighbouring obstacles without neglecting the architecture aspect.
The collectors are most commonly installed on the roof, but often it is possible to integrate them otherwise. We understand our clients concern regarding the integration of solar energy to their home our large range of products permit this in almost all situation without comprising the technical and performance needs. Whatever the style of your home, traditional, Modern, passive solar, eco construction, B&B gites , the solution exists.

The different types of individual solar water heaters:
- The Thermosiphon compact system
Functions on the principle of hot water rising. Same as back boiler water heating. Self-regulated closed loop for protection against frost, corrosion and scales does not have any moving parts (pumps, control system etc…), does not need electrical power to operate and needs the minimum maintenance.
The tank and solar panels are integrated on a single rigid chassis. Most cost effective system available. Simple and reliable. Can replace the existing hot water cylinder or be combined with. The major drawback is aesthetics.

- The Thermosiphon separated elements
Same principle as compact except the cylinder and collectors may also be separated E.G. the tank inside the building once the tank remains above the solar panels and within proximity.
Available from 2m2 solar collectors/120litres up to 5m2/300litres.Can be installed on the roof or on the ground.
The compact thermosiphon is the most convenient economically sensible way to harness the power of the sun in our region.

- Pumped systems (active systems)
A pump circulates the water from the tank up to the solar collector and back again.
It is also equipped with an electronic control system to activate or stop the system at the desired times.
All these components are grouped and form the solar station.
This type of solar heater is the most common in France. Combines efficiency and flexibility so is suitable for all building types. Can be installed on the roof or on the ground.
Floor standing solar hot water tanks ranging from 150L up to 500L can be matched with a number of flat plate collector or evacuated tube collectors to address all needs for volume and efficiency. The size and type of collectors and the volume of the tank to be selected depend on the specific requirements and the needs of the customer (volume and temperature of domestic solar hot water)

- Drainback solar systems
Drainback systems, a type of active solar system. Which uses pumps to circulate water through the solar panels. The water in the collector loop drains into a reservoir tank when the pumps stops. This makes drainback systems a good choice in hot climates as it eliminates the risk of over heating.
Drainback systems must be carefully installed to assure that the piping always slopes downward, so that the water will completely drain from the piping. This can be difficult to achieve in some circumstances.
