How hot does a solar heater make or can make water if you are using it for residential use.?
I looking for either a passive or active system (Pool water heating or hot water used for home).
I know there are different systems out their but I’m looking for maximum temperatures.
My active system in Massachusetts made 120 gallons of 165F degree water today, January 30. It was 20F degrees outside. That’s about the max I can get. The collectors can get up to about 200 degrees, but there is about 15% loss through the heat exchanger, so 165 is about it for the tank.
