Checklist before buying a solar system

25.08.09

Any system that combines water under pressure with heat energy can be potentially dangerous when not handled with care and according to installation standards.

As a prospective purchaser of a solar water heating system you need to be cautious not to buy sub-standard systems. Here are some important questions to consider before buying a solar system:

1. Check whether supplier has SABS approval and ask for test reports

2. Check warranty given especially on solar collector and geyser

3. Check qualification credentials of the installer

4. Check if supplier can give detailed information about the system, where it was manufactured and ask for references
