Comparison to standard solar system
Installing a solar water heating system is a smart solution that combines resource savings and environmental protection. The special VOLTIC controller facilitates this process by allowing the connection of photovoltaic panels directly to your water heater. Powering your water heater with photovoltaics is not only cost-effective, but also an environmentally friendly solution. Photovoltaic panels, known as the energy of the future, capture sunlight and convert it into electrical energy that is used to heat water. These panels are extremely easy to install and maintain, with a lifespan of over 25 years and no risk of overheating or freezing. Connecting them to the VOLTIC controller is done with just two cables, within a few hours, and typically between 3 and 6 panels are installed depending on the power required.
Powering a water heater with photovoltaics
The VOLTIC controller is the heart of the system, efficiently converting solar energy into thermal energy and guaranteeing hot water at all times. Thanks to the intelligent MPPT technology, VOLTIC ensures high efficiency and full energy utilization of the photovoltaic panels. In case of insufficient sun, the system automatically switches to grid power, providing you with continuously hot water. VOLTIC is compatible with most home water heaters and requires no modification to existing wiring, making installation quick and easy. With a capacity of up to 3kW, the system is suitable for water heaters with heaters up to 3kW and volumes up to 300 litres, providing a reliable and powerful solution for your hot water needs.
Applications
- Single-family house
- Apartment in a multi-storey building*
- Hotel**
- Office or industrial building**
* The solar panels are connected with only two cables, making it easy to install in large buildings
** If there is a need to heat water in a larger volume, several heaters installed in different points of the buffer tank can be used.
