Solar Thermal Servicing

Solar Panel System Service is vital, if the system is to operate correctly.

  • When the antifreeze breaks down, the viscousity of the Gycol becomes more difficult to pump around the system
  • Temperature sensors can become faulty and can give false readings if they are heated beyond their recommended temperatures
  • Sensors can sometimes be pulled out of the correct location in the cylinder if they are not secured properly.
  • Software may need to be updated on the controller if it’s outdated.
  • Non return valves may become blocked with dirt if the antifreeze is not changed regularly. (recommended every 5 years)

  • Power flushing of the solar circuit to remove sludge and debris
  • Check of glycol fluid with refactor meter 
  • Look at of all connections in the solar loop
  • Examination of all electrical connections in the solar controls
  • Confirm the correct operation of all controls
  • Setting the correct pressure of the expansion vessel
  • Calibrate the pump flow rate to suit the solar panels of system
  • Setting the correct glycol pressure in the system
  • Confirm the correct settings of the controller
  • Check the operation of all valves and pumps in the system
  • A solar service certificate will be issued for your records
