The Solar geyser – how it works.
This is the basic concept of the solar geyser..Cold water from the house is fed through the collectors ( the pipes that you see on the frame) and it is heated by the sun. It then creates a flow of water to and from the tank.
As the natural laws of heat and cold apply, the hot water rises to the top of the tank and the cold water sinks to the bottom. The outlet tap is positioned on the top of the tank and this ensures that hot water is always on tap.
