The Edson Wetback system can be attached to wood, pellet, coal or diesel burners. It is perfect for use with a wood stove, fireplace or other solid fuel burner.
Heat from the combustion process is used to heat the water jackets in the solid fuel burning appliance. Water is then circulated through the water jackets and through pipes to the storage cylinder. Hot water can be delivered indirectly, as a low pressure or mains pressure system, or in some cases where the fuel burning appliance has a suitable boiler incorporated, the hot water can be delivered directly into the storage cylinder.
The system can also be fully wired with an optional thermostatically controlled electric heating element, which can be used in the hotter months. When connected with the correct pressure, the system can also be used for heating the household as well as heating the water.
Add an Edson Solar Collector
Wetbacks are most effective when coupled with a solar collector. Coupling a Wetback with a solar collector will help provide hot water in summer and reduce use of a backup electric element, allowing households to enjoy hot water all year round.
