How do I turn off my split solar hot water system?
[/ux_text] [/col] [/row] [row] [col span__sm=”12″]If you have a Split system, where the tank is on the ground and panels are on the roof use the following instructions:
On all hot water systems, there is a valve that connects the cold water to the tank/system.
This valve controls your hot water supply.
The age of your hot water system will often determine how old the valve is you are looking for as shown below.
- Turn this valve clockwise until closed.
2. Turn off electricity in your switchboard.

[/ux_text] [/col] [/row] [row] [col span__sm=”12″]For roof mounted systems you use the same process, however the cold water valve to be turned off sometimes is hidden in the following areas:
-
In a cupboard
-
Under a sink/basin
- On an outside wall (as shown above)
- Under your house or even on the roof.
1.Once you have identified the control valve, turn it off the same way you would a normal tap.
