Estimated Component Life:You can expect a long useful life from the primary components in your SolaRay solar water heating system by adhering to the routine service and maintenance tips provided below. The SunEarth solar collectors have a design life of twenty-five to thirty years. The HTF must be maintained as specified to maximize collector life. Photovoltaic modules have design lives in excess of twenty years. The solar storage tank should last 10 to 20 years in most water quality areas by periodically replacing the anode rod. The 12 volt DC circulating pump generally runs 20,000 hours before the brushes or motor require replacement. Like EPA mileage estimates for automobiles, these are average figures for closed loop forced circulation system of this type installed in the United States. The following simple procedures are intended to optimize the performance of your SolaRay solar water heating system and also to extend the life of the primary components:
