A smart immersion is a device that can be used to heat water in a home using solar energy. Here’s how it works:
- Solar panels installed on the roof of a home capture energy from the sun and convert it into electricity.
- This electricity is then sent to a device called an inverter, which converts the DC electricity produced by the solar panels into AC electricity that can be used in the home.
- The AC electricity is then sent to the smart immersion device, which is installed in the hot water tank.
- The smart immersion device uses this electricity to heat the water in the tank, using a heating element.
- The device is “smart” because it can be programmed to heat the water at specific times of the day, when energy from the solar panels is most abundant. This helps to maximize the use of solar energy and reduce energy bills.
- If the water in the tank is already hot, the smart immersion device will not turn on, further saving energy.
Overall, a smart immersion device can help homeowners to make the most of their solar energy system by heating hot water in a smart and efficient way.
