Regular vacuum tube inspections are key. The vacuum tube is the core component of the solar water heater that absorbs solar energy and is prone to accumulating dust and dirt. Every once in a while, gently wipe the surface of the vacuum tube with a clean, soft cloth to remove dust and debris to ensure its efficient absorption of solar energy.


The maintenance of the water tank should not be neglected. Clean the inside of the water tank at least once a year to prevent the buildup of scale and impurities. To clean, empty the water tank, then clean it with a special cleaner or white vinegar to remove scale and bacteria, and finally rinse it off with clean water.


Checking the sealing of pipes and valves is an important part of maintenance. Check whether there is water leakage at the pipe connection and whether the valve can be switched normally. If leaks are found, replace the sealing gaskets or repair damaged parts in a timely manner.


In the cold winter, pay special attention to good anti-freezing measures. When the temperature is too low, turn on the anti-freeze device or keep a certain amount of water in the tank to prevent the pipes from freezing and cracking.


Also, pay attention to the solar water heater's bracket. Make sure the bracket is solid and not rusted or loose. If necessary, perform rust removal and reinforcement.


It is also recommended to have a professional perform a thorough inspection and maintenance of your solar water heater on a regular basis. They will be able to detect potential problems more accurately and carry out timely repairs and maintenance.


Proper maintenance not only extends the service life of your solar water heater, but also improves its heating efficiency, saving you energy and maintenance costs. We hope you will follow these maintenance methods to take good care of your solar water heater, so that it can continue to bring you warm and comfortable hot water.
