Posted By: SteamyTeaMaybe some solar thermal could free up some PV generation. Just a basic flat panel, drain back systemHi ST, do you have any sources for such a system. When I last looked could not find anything to use as the drain back tank.
Posted By: ActivePassiveSSE the DNO installed a meter which permanently posts an error, saying I am trying to fiddle the meter by reversing the current, the manufacturers says the meter isn't compatible with PV, but SSE refuses to replace it.......
Posted By: ActivePassiveIts a difficult area, as you have limited control over what gets installed. When I installed PV on a single phase connection, I contacted my energy supplier to have my mechanical non-reversing meter replaced, SSE the DNO installed a meter which permanently posts an error, saying I am trying to fiddle the meter by reversing the current
Posted By: borpinPosted By: MikCYou can get your own drain back tank made to order from someone like Newark. Other companies do this too...

I've had a few made over the years. Around £150 for a 10l drainback tank IIRC. Seems expensive but it's the same work as making a bigger tank, just less copper
Hi Mike, Not managed to find anyone who has been able to help me on this. I got 2 evac tube panels from eco-nomical several years ago. Pipe is in and panels (less tubes) on roof I just need to connect it to the HW tank.
Would you have any diagrams on how best to connect this together and a suggestion for the pump and controller?
I shied away from a pressurised system as I could not find anyone locally who was interested in installing it.
Cheers
Brian
