Solar water heaters Altek allow for efficient accumulation of solar radiation, converting it into useful thermal energy in the form of hot water for household needs.
The Altek SP-H1-15 solar water heater provides hot water under the pressure of the water supply during the summer. It can also be used in winter, but only with automatic temperature maintenance in the tank by an electric heater, proper insulation, and additional heating of the pipeline. Short-term operation of the Altek SP-H1-15 water heater is permitted during brief frosts down to -30 °C.
