    7 Common Places and Causes of Solar Water Heater Leaks:

    1. Water leakage at the exhaust tee;

    2. Water leakage at the interface between the upper and lower sewer pipes and the water tank (the reason is that the pipeline connection is not tight; Pipe fittings are damaged; loose faucet);

    3. Water leakage in the indoor pipeline part (reason: the pipeline connection is not tight; Pipe fittings are damaged;

    4. Shower leakage (reason: bad valve or broken metal hose; Water leakage caused by broken gasket or poor connection);

    5. Water leakage at the connection between the vacuum tube and the water tank (reason: the silicone ring is damaged or poorly sealed; The inner tank is not centered with the outer shell);

    6. The vacuum tube is damaged and leaking;

    7. Cracking of the welding joint;

    Solar water heater leakage cause inspection method and correct idea:

    1. Have you filled up your water? Does your water heater have a full automatic control switch? (Some solar energy does not have this function, and the water is discharged through the overflow pipe after being filled) That is to say, if there is, is it a problem?

    2. Does your home supply water regularly? In that case, it is likely that the water switch is not closed tightly, that is, when there is water, after you fill up the water, if the water stops and you forget to close the valve, the water in the solar energy will be due to the gravitational pull of the earth. It automatically flows back into the water pipe.

    If your home does not stop water today and tomorrow, it is the problem of the water switch, because you say that the water temperature and the difference in water temperature are caused by the lack of strict switch, because of the continuous addition of water, the hot water is ejected, of course, it is not very fast, like the speed of hanging drips, you will have a feeling, if this is the case, your home must be occasionally cut off, if the water supply has been very regular since the installation of the water heater in your home, it is not the reason.

    3. See if there is a problem with the switch of the basin or vegetable basin, because some faults cannot be seen on the outside, especially the basin, which is likely to be in the overflow hole of the basin, and the switch is leaking.

    4. The sealing ring is damaged or the water tank is not correct when installed. The solution is to replace the seal or reinstall it so that the tank is aligned with the vacuum tube.

    5. The inner tank of the water tank is welded. You can ask a solar dealer or professional to get a new one.

    The common causes and maintenance methods of solar water heater leakage are:

    1. If the inner tank weld is cracked, the solution is to replace the water tank or solder the place where the welding is opened.

    2. The sealing ring is damaged, in this case, only need to replace the sealing ring.

    3. Improper installation of the water tank will also lead to water leakage in the solar water heater, and it can be reinstalled.

    4. If the vacuum collector tube is broken, it is necessary to ask a professional installer to come to install it in this case.

    5. The temperature of the cover plate is too high, and the installation position of the pipeline needs to be adjusted.

    Routine Maintenance:

    1. When installing a solar water heater, there may be dust or oil smell in the water pipe, and you can open the faucet to remove debris when you use it for the first time.

    2. The water stored in the solar water heater should be discharged regularly according to the local water quality conditions, and the drainage time can be selected in the morning when the collector is at a lower temperature.

    3. The surface of the solar water heater should be wiped regularly according to the amount of dust falling in the area, and it can be cleaned by itself when it rains, and the surface of the water heater can be kept clean to obtain a higher heat collection efficiency.

    4. When you don't use hot water for many days on sunny days, the hot water temperature is very high, please turn on cold water first, and then hot water when using the solar water heater to avoid scalding.

    5. There is generally a filter screen device at the outlet end of the faucet, and the scale and debris in the water pipe will gather in this net, which should be removed and cleaned regularly, so as to increase the smooth flow of water.

    6. It is very common for the pipeline to be frozen in winter, if it is found that the pipeline has been frozen but the pipeline has not yet cracked, it can generally be dredged automatically after the temperature rises. You can also use a hair dryer to blow it, or wrap the water pipe with a towel, and then pour it slowly with warm water, and do not use fire to bake, knock on the pipe or use boiling water to scald, which will burst the pipe. Repeated freeze plugging can easily cause the pipeline to freeze and crack, so it is necessary to strengthen the pipeline insulation measures.

    7. Solar water heaters need to be cleaned, inspected and disinfected every two to three years on average, and users can also do some disinfection work by themselves, such as buying some chlorine-containing disinfectants and pouring them into the water inlet, allowing them to soak for a period of time, and then release them, which can have a certain disinfection and sterilization effect.

    8. The inside of the vacuum tube needs to be cleaned in two to three years on average in the solar water heater to prevent the scale inside the vacuum tube from affecting the heat absorption effect.

    9. If the solar water heater is equipped with a special instrument, pay attention to lightning protection and electricity protection, and do not take a bath and unplug the electric heating plug when thundering.

    Hello, I have seen your question here, and now I am working hard to sort out the answer for you, please wait patiently for a while

    The reasons for the leakage of solar water heaters are:

    1. The pipeline connection between the upper and lower pipes and the water tank interface is not tight, and the pipe fittings are damaged, which loosens the faucet and causes the water heater to leak.

    Clause. 2. The inner liner of the storage electric water heater is corroded due to scale, resulting in water leakage.

    3. The connection between the vacuum tube and the water tank, the silicone ring is damaged, the seal is not good, or the inner tank and the shell are not concentric, so that the water heater leaks;

    Fourth, the weld is cracked, causing water leakage.

    You can check each of these conditions one by one.

    Solar water heater is a household appliance that people think is more suitable in life. Nowadays, many people install solar water heaters at home. Mainly because of the energy-saving effect.

    It also helps to save money on living expenses at home. Some people found water leaks after using solar water heaters, and looked at the causes and solutions of solar water heater leaks. Causes and solutions of solar water heater leakage.

    The phenomenon of water tank leakage, the phenomenon of water leakage of solar tank is relatively rare, and the quality and service life of the inner wall of the water tank directly lead to rust and leakage of the water tank.

    But generally speaking, if it's a branded water heater. This will not be the case. Generally speaking, if the solar seal is broken, only the solar silicone ring needs to be replaced.

    Water pipe leakage: If the water pipe or sewage leaks, the PPR water pipe or aluminum-plastic pipe will age after a long time of wind supervision, so the solar water heating pipe needs to be replaced. The valve is leaking, the valve is faulty, in which case a new solar valve or solenoid valve needs to be replaced.

    Solar heating tube leakage: Water leakage in the electric heating position of the solar heating tube, that is, the electric heating rust is rusty, and it needs to be replaced with a new shilling or electric heating rod.

    The leakage of the solar vacuum tube is basically the aging of the solar silicon ring, and the vacuum tube needs to be unplugged and replaced with a new silicon ring. A leak in the solar exhaust often results in damage to the sensor or damage to the meter, in which case the water temperature level gauge or a new solar meter needs to be replaced. A solar water heater is a device that uses the sun's energy to heat water from low temperature to high temperature, and is a kind of thermal energy product.

    The solar water heater is composed of an all-glass vacuum collector tube, a water storage tank, a bracket and related accessories, and the conversion of solar energy into heat energy mainly relies on glass vacuum collector tubes.

    The collector tube is exposed to sunlight, and the temperature is high and the collector tube and other sides are low. The water in the tube produces a temperature difference reaction, and the principle of precipitating cold water by using hot water produces the effect of microcirculation and heating. Causes and solutions for leakage of solar water heater As mentioned above, if there is a leakage problem in the solar water heater at home, it is best to look at the specific reasons and solve it yourself.

    When you can't solve it yourself, you can find a professional to solve it yourself. Prevent water heater water pipe leaks from persisting.

    1.Water leakage at the junction between the outlet of the water tank and the pipe fittings. 2.

    The junction between the outlet pipe of the water tank and the box body. 3.Close the water heater inlet valve and check the leakage.

    If there is a leakage at the junction between the outlet pipe of the water tank and the pipe fittings, use a wrench to re-tighten the original outlet pipe joint, which can solve the problem. 4.If there is a leak at the junction between the outlet pipe of the water tank and the box, it means that the silicone ring built into the outlet of the water tank is broken and the soft hose needs to be replaced.

    First buy a silicone ring of the same specification, then pull out the outlet pipe, then take out the old silicone ring, then put the new silicone ring in the water heater inner tank out of the water hole, and finally wipe the outlet pipe clean, wipe a little meal wash as a lubricant, and rotate to insert the steel pipe.

    Hope it helps.

    It should be repaired immediately, or something related to it should be repaired. Also, you should buy some waterproof things and put these things under the water heater to prevent water leakage.

  9. Anonymous users2024-02-04

    You can go to a professional worker to repair it, if it leaks, don't use it for the time being, and use it after repairing.

  10. Anonymous users2024-02-03

    It can only be repaired, and it is best to ask a professional person to come over to repair and clean, so that this problem can be solved, and it is likely to be caused by the blockage of the sun pipe.

    1.If the inner tank of the water heater is leaking, it is recommended to use a sealing ring to deal with it, which can alleviate the leakage of the inner tank, and if the inner tank leakage is serious, it is recommended to replace the inner tank directly.

    2.Most of the reasons for the leakage of household water heaters are that there is a problem with the sealing of the connection between the heating pipe and the inner tank, and it can be seen from the subsequent maintenance that the sealing ring between the flange of the heating pipe base and the inner tank is broken, and the sealing ring must be replaced to deal with the leakage problem.

    3.When the water heater is boiling water, the water is heated and expanded, and the expanded water will be discharged from the nozzle, but this part of the water is very small, which is normal from the product structure.

    4.If the box is damaged and causes water leakage, you need to buy the same type of water tank and find a professional installer to reinstall it.

    5.If there is a lot of water at the sprinkler head when boiling water, you can contact the maintenance personnel to check it to prevent a blockage in the pipeline.

    6.The small hole of the safety valve drips water, the reason: the tap water pressure is too high, and the pressure is beyond the safety valve).

    The pressure of the steam in the water heater exceeds the pressure relief pressure of the valve, and a small amount of water drips out. It is normal to install a pressure reducing valve or leave the outlet open before the water inlet of the water heater.

    7.If the silicone gasket at the connection of the heating element deteriorates, it needs to be replaced.

    8.If the water heater safety valve is leaking, the first thing to check is whether it is happening at the high temperature of the water heater. If so, the problem is not normal, but the water leakage when the temperature is low proves that there is a problem with the safety valve itself, so it needs to be replaced.

    9.Carefully check the water leakage point to see if it is not a water leak in the water heater body, such as: Anhe noisy full valve, mixing valve, sewage outlet and other valve groups and connecting pipelines. If it is not a leakage of the inner tank, you can replace the relevant accessories or increase the tightening torque.

    10.Hot water leakage is a relatively normal phenomenon, if the cold water is also leaking, the water heater needs to be checked.

    There are several reasons: 1. It may be that the water tank of the water heater is leaking, if the leakage point is in the inner tank of the water tank, it is recommended to replace the water tank directly; 2. It may be caused by the aging of water pipes; 3. It is also possible that the water heater pipe is damaged and leaking.

    Suggested Treatment:

    1. Check whether the inside and outside of the water heater tank are in good condition, if the leakage point is in the inner tank of the water tank, it is recommended to replace the water tank directly. If the water leakage is caused by perennial use or rust caused by scale nuclear corrosion, the corresponding silicone ring can be replaced.

    2. The water pipe is divided into upper water pipe and lower water pipe. Most of them are located outdoors, which deteriorates quickly and is prone to water leakage. You can observe whether the leakage is in the upper or lower pipe, and make sure that the water pipe can be repaired or replaced in the future.

    3. Water leakage will also occur if the pipes of the water heater itself are damaged. Generally, there are the following three square brothers:

    a.For example, when the exhaust pipe leaks, most of them are considered to be damaged by the above parts or instruments, and it is good to replace them with new parts or instruments.

    b.If the solar heating pipe is leaking, it is generally considered that the electric heating is rusty and damaged, and it needs to be replaced with a new electric heating rod.

    c.The solar vacuum tube is leaking, and the problem is basically that the silica gel ring is oxidized, and it is good to replace it with a new silicone ring. In addition, there is a leakage of the valve or a leakage of the sealing ring, etc., which can be directly replaced with new parts to solve the problem.

    However, during the use of the water heater, the water heater should be regularly overhauled to find and solve problems in time.

    Summary. Dear, 1

    The phenomenon of leakage of solar insulation barrel is relatively rare, if it is found that the tank is indeed leaking after inspection, then it is necessary to consider replacing the solar water tank, and the solar energy is basically scrapped. The quality and service life of the tank tank directly lead to rust and leakage of the water tank.

    But in general, as long as it is a brand water heater, there will be no such problem, generally the solar seal is damaged, in this case, you only need to call the master to replace a few solar silicone rings.

    What should I do if my solar water heater tank is leaking?

    Good afternoon, dear<>

    Dear, 1The phenomenon of leakage of solar insulation barrel is relatively rare, if it is found that the tank is indeed leaking after inspection, then it is necessary to consider replacing the solar water tank, and the solar energy is basically scrapped. The quality and service life of the tank tank directly lead to rust and leakage of the water tank.

    2.But in general, as long as it is a brand water heater, there will be no such problem, generally the solar seal ring is damaged, this liter of old rolling case, stuffy only need to call the master to replace a few solar silicone rings.

    Can the leaking water tank be repaired?

    Dear, this is the above way to deal with this problem, I hope it helps you, dear, this can't be repaired.

    The only way to do this is to buy a new one and replace this tank <>

    Finding the leak is not a good thing.

    Honey, or call a maintenance worker, he will take care of it for you, there is no way to repair it himself.

    My dear, look at the material of the water tank, it should generally be weldable, of course, it should be a little level. In addition, after welding, it is necessary to pay attention to the protection of the brigade to prevent freezing and cracking in winter. You can find a maintenance worker to help you weld.

    Dear, thank you very much for your letter Liang Zhaokuanren, I hope the service satisfies you, recommend my consultation card to you, if you have other questions in the chain, or relatives and friends around you have consultation needs, welcome to ask questions, thank you very much

Check it well, there are several reasons for solar water leakage, if the overflow pipe is blocked, take out the upper joint, blow it from below with compressed air, it really doesn't work after you turn the faucet boiling water on a small point, slowly add water, when the water is not urgent, it will not overflow from the exhaust port, if the overflow pipe is seriously blocked, it will also cause the water tank to deflat, then you need to replace the main water tank; If the vacuum tube is damaged, you need to replace the vacuum tube, if the silicone ring is not tightly sealed or damaged, as long as the silicone ring is replaced, there is another point that the pressure of the water pipe is too large, resulting in the automatic valve is not tightly closed, which will also lead to water leakage, but only need to install the pressure reducing valve, different problems have different solutions, you have to check well, the right medicine
