Hot Water System FAQ:


I have an indirect hot water heating system. The boiler cooks the water and puts it in a storage tank. The boiler is works on oil. When the technician came to do a tune-up I said the water wasn’t very hot. He said to call a plumber to raise the thermostat. Besides dumping the oil company because there technicians are lazy I see a panel on the tank. I was told it might be behind this rectangular panel. Can that be done by somebody handy or do a need to call a plumber?

I have been scouring the net to find details or plans for building and installing my own home Solar hot water heating system. All I seem to come across is adverts and links asking for me to send money for plans. Can anyone suggest a site where I can find comprehensive and detailed plans/requirements and information on one of these systems. I actually dont mind paying….Just dont want to be scammed…

Any feedback or advice appreciated.
