Solar Water Heaters

Solar water heating technology is fast emerging as the most energy-efficient and inexpensive method of water heating in Kenya and perhaps the only solution to today’s challenge of increasing energy costs, rising pollution levels and rapidly depleting energy sources.

With cost and energy savings like never before, Mayu solar water heating systems address heating requirements for varying family sizes, climatic conditions & building types.

Mayu solar water heaters work on thermosiphon principle, a highly trusted and efficient system of water heating. Based on phenomenon of natural convection, water stored in the collector heats up by solar energy, becomes lighter and rises naturally into the tank above. At the same time the cooler water in the tank flows down the pipe to bottom of the collector, and this circulation continues to occur naturally, resulting in overall temperature rise of water stored in the tank. Through the thermosiphon principle the fluid circulates without the necessity of a mechanical pump.
