Temperature differentials on Solar Hot Water

homer911 · 2008-04-12 19:00:39

The temperature differentials on my solar hot water system are set to 6 Kelvin on and 4 Kelvin off - just wondering what other people have theirs set to and whats the ideal settings for cost/efficiency Thanks

No idea what's ideal.

I've set mine at 8C on 6C off.

Lower than that and it seemed to run for ages without really doing anything.
