There are a variety of solar hot water systems available on the market today. Rheem offers roof mounted solar panel collectors and storage tank or a combination of roof mounted solar panels collectors with a ground storage tank. Solar hot water systems work by harnessing the sun’s energy to heat the water. The sun is trapped in the solar collector panels on the roof to heat the water passing through the closed circuit fluid channels inside the panels. Once heated the water is then transferred to the storage tank. The mechanisms of this transfer depend on which type of system you have. In the roof mounted system the transfer of energy is done by the natural thermosiphon effect which is based on the principle that hot fluid rises. In the ground mounted system there are inbuilt circulating pumps to push the water through the system.

Due to being powered by the sun, these hot water systems are very efficient systems and environmentally friendly.

Together with Rheem’s high quality marine grade stainless steel tanks and high efficiency panels, not only can we reduce your energy bill, but we can help you reduce your carbon foot print.

Rheem Hiline® Roof Mounted Solar Hot Water Heaters

Rheem Stainless Steel RLX Series

The Rheem RLX Series includes the RLX180L or RLX305L tank. The design on this roof mounted hot water system specifically caters to a couple of different conditions. These include areas which experience frost or snow, have good water quality, and limited ground space for a hot water system. In particular regarding space, the stainless steel solar storage tank installed on the roof directly coupled to the solar collectors. There is frost protection because of the design in the solar panels. The water is indirectly heated by a glycol liquid inside both the panels and heat exchanger in the tank.

Rheem Loline® Solar Hot Water Heaters

The Rheem Loline® Solar Hot Water Heaters is compatible with different climates and available in different sizes to suit your needs. These include 220L, 325L, and 410L capacities. This Rheem solar hot water system combines sleek and slim roof mounted collectors and a ground mounted tank. This combination is beneficial because it reduces the structural load and increases visual appeal for the roof.

Rheem Loline® Solar water heaters use roof mounted solar collectors to absorb heat energy from the sun, which is transferred to water stored in the tank at ground level. They are highly efficient, and help reduce the production of greenhouse gas emissions. And, to ensure you have hot water all year-round, Rheem Loline® Solar water heaters can be gas or electric boosted, with automatic electronic control.
