SKU: EDa-LX32 S3 Aust

High quality close-coupled roof mounted solar hot water system with two flat-plate collectors. Ideal for wood-fire boost, or replacing gravity-fed electric systems and for where ground space is at a premium. All storage cylinders for Edwards roof-mounted solar hot water heaters are long life stainless steel. Stainless steel acts as a natural barrier to corrosion, therefore Edwards stainless steel systems do not require a sacrifiial anode and are virtually maintenance free.

The Edwards LX series uses the highly efficient heat transferring properties of a special anti-freeze fluid to transfer the absorbed energy to heat the water indirectly. With an 'indirect system' water does not pass through the collector panels, instead the anti-freeze mixture is circulated from the collectors through a stainless steel heat exchanger, transferring the heat into the water. The benefit of this 'indirect' heat exchange process is that the system can be used confidently in frost areas, without risking damage to the system in conditions up to minus 8 degrees Celsius.
