Solar Water Heaters

Meibes solar water heaters are designed with a high-capacity 1.5” internal coil heat exchanger. Some models incorporate an optional 4500W electric heating element and/or second coil heat exchanger for backup heating. A heating medium is passed through the solar panels and internal coil as long as there is an adequate temperature difference between the heating medium and stored water in the tank. The internal coil is located as close to the bottom as possible to facilitate the transfer of heat even at lower solar panel temperatures.
