Portland + Seattle Solar - Solterra Systems

Solar Hot Water

•	1.	Glycol goes to the collector.
•	2.	Glycol returns after it is heated by the sun and through a heat exchanger warms the potable water.
•	3.	Domestic cold water supplies solar pre heat tank and cools down domestic water supply if it gets too hot.
•	4.	Domestic hot water travels from the solar tank to back-up tank where it is supplemented if needed.

Solar thermal collectors capture and retain heat from the sun and transfer this heat to a liquid.

To be eligible for Snohomish PUD cash incentives or loans, photovoltaic and solar hot water systems must be installed by a PUD registered solar installer. All listed solar installers are licensed, bonded and insured and have solar installation experience and/or training.
