Folks
I've been reading, drawing, and thinking. Last one is the scary part.
What I want to do it heat my hot water, and supplement the electric heater in my hot tub (approx 300 gallons), with solar. I am in Jacksonville Fl
What I was thinking of was an AET drainback retrofit kit, 2 4*10 AET MSC collectors, and a bunch of copper pipe. What I was hoping I could do was run the collectors, pipe down to the drainback tank (heat exchanger 1), bury a 30 foot run to the hot tub, hit hot tub (heat exchanger 2), come back through existing trench, and back into the drainback tank to begin the cycle over again.
I figured by doing it this way, I'll have my DHW first, and then I'll have a hot tub, hopefully heated with thermal energy that the drainback system didn't absorb. I'm trying to avoid having to put in two independent systems.
Anybody see anything glaring wrong in my plans?
I appreciate your help.
