To connect the solar heater to the house installation, we have to find the right place.
The right place can be the place where the usual heater of the house is, or before it, if there is one.

The installation will always be relative to each case, and whether or not some type of conventional heater is used, and if you want to cancel it or keep it as an auxiliary backup heater.

What we have to do is find the pipe that supplies water to our house, which is usually on a wall outside the house.

When the pipe is Once located, we have to access it, normally by drilling holes in the wall itself.

At this point of the pipe we will apply a cut where we will install a "T" to be able to take the water supply to our tank.

The tank will need to return its output to another point in the house.

This configuration can be in 4 ways.

- Without auxiliary heater.

- Installation of the solar heater before the auxiliary heater.

- Installation of the solar heater after the auxiliary heater.

- Installation of the heater with an auxiliary heater configurable with keys.

Installing the solar heater without an auxiliary heater

This would be the graphic representation

Installing the solar heater before the auxiliary heater

This involves taking the cold water, which has not yet reached the heater, cutting the pipe and diverting it to our home tank (cold water inlet into the tank) and returning it to the same return point (hot water outlet from the tank)

None

Installing the solar heater after the auxiliary heater

Here the hot water from our home tank will return to the back of the heater.
This is done to prevent the hot water from our solar tank from running through the coil of the gas heater.
If the water runs through the heater, it will lose energy in the coil circuit.

Installing a heater with a configurable auxiliary heater with keys

This is a more complex point that I have detailed in the following article
