How Does a Solar Heater Work?

July 15, 2014

As an increasing number of individuals shift towards more sustainable and energy saving devices in their homes in Columbia, solar water heater installations have grown significantly in popularity. Solar heaters provide a great energy efficient alternative to more traditional forms of heating. While solar water heater technology is still being developed, it has already proved to be one of the most effective ways to reduce your energy consumption. If you are planning on installing a solar water heater in your home in Columbia, get in touch with service providers like Master Tech.

Understanding solar heaters

The principle behind solar heater technology lies in using the heat and radiation directly emitted from the sun. A solar heater panel consists of long tubing. When a solar heater is turned on, fluid is passed through these tubes. The tubes are exposed to the sun’s rays and heat up over time. As such, the fluids within the tube also rise in temperature.

Once they reach a particular temperature, these fluids are no longer maintained in a close loop, and flow to the water cylinders in your home’s boiler or immersion heater. The fluid continues to heat the water in the boiler until a particular temperature is attained. You can regulate this temperature by controlling the water cylinder’s coil.

Types of solar water heaters

There are currently two kind of solar water heaters available in the market. These are flat plate collector heaters, and evacuated tube collectors. Evacuated tube collectors have shown to be more energy efficient than its flat plate counterparts during the colder seasons. However, studies have shown that over the entire course of the year, both types of solar heaters have been shown to be as energy efficient as each other.

So far I haven't used Master Tech to install or service anything, but I plan to. Gary came out to assess and give me an estimate on water heater options. He was great! He was informative and not pushy. He was very knowledgeable and talked out the options with me and answered all of my questions and then some.

Update to my original review - these guys are the best; I worked with Matt, Chris and Nate on a variety of issues from sewer line, to HVAC all around the holidays when timing can be tough. They did it all very quickly with a ton of knowledge and were very kind. Their service convinced me to become a paying member for the yearly inspections/service and peace of mind. Highly recommend.

These guys were great. Our tech, Nathan Rob, went above and beyond to give us a fair & competitive estimate, delivered timely and impeccable service and checked in after repairs were done, to make sure everything was running good. We had a major sewer line replacement and had to deal with several different contractors. I wish I had know the possibilities of the extent of damage up front because I would have used MasterTech to complete the entire repair, instead of the multiple contractors that I used. The first contractors I used didn't have enough experience to complete the job from beginning to end and MasterTech did. Next time, they will be the first people I call.

I highly recommend MasterTech based on my recent experience. I had an issue with my water heater, which is always stressful for a new homeowner. Matt, the technician, arrived on time, was very friendly and knowledgeable, and presented me with options and information before beginning repairs. He quickly identified the issue and resolved it in about 30 minutes in the most professional manner. Can’t recommend MasterTech highly enough! Very pleased to have found this company to add to my contact sheet of high-quality local repair/service professionals!

I purchased a home about six weeks ago I needed someone to come in and replace the hot water valve in my laundry room. Gary the technician Was incredibly friendly, and knowledgeable and efficient. He could not have been nicer and put me at ease immediately. I was able to ask any questions and he was created clarifying the information that I needed. I cannot recommend this company enough!

Repaired leaking water supply line outside of the house. Tech came out same day and they were able to dig up & replace entire supply line 3 days later. Just wish it could have been quicker, but it was not a critical leak & had to schedule the backhoe and utility locations

Gary was PHENOMENAL! He was professional, kind and answered all my questions with knowledge and care. He was FAST and did a great job. I called other places that were closer to me that never responded. I called MasterTech in Columbia and they were quick, the price was spot on AND they answered the phone! Thank you all for your hard work and dedication!David W.

Excellent communication, service, and timeliness. Was able to get to me the day after I called. Was in constant communication with me (I live out of town). Much better customer service than the other local plumber in the area.

Everyone was very friendly and easy to work with. Nate was my technician. Very knowledgeable and checked everything to make sure there was no leak. Really great service from everyone from start to finish. Reasonable rates for work.

We got a bid to replace an outdoor spigot and fix a leaky tub faucet. The technician who came out was super nice and helpful. He answered all our questions. The quote he gave us was $600 which we thought was way too high, so did not end up using them. I would’ve loved to use the repair service if it was more affordable,

The flush mechanisms of two of my toilets needed to be repaired/replaced. We were able to replace one of the flushes, but we weren't able to repair the second one. Max, the Mastertech plumber checked both flushing mechanisms, certified that the first one that we installed was working correctly, and made some recommendations for the second one. This morning, Max replaced the parts on the second one and confirmed that both toilets are functioning as they should. I was extremely pleased with the service, speed, and expertise with which Max completed the repairs. I highly recommend MasterTech Plumbing and will certainly use them again for any of my plumbing needs!

The tech arrived on time and was very polite and respectful of my home. He found the problem quickly and did a great job of explaining to me exactly what was going on. He also inspected and took care of some things with my heating system while he was here. The process was smooth and easy and professional.

On time, always nice. They try to get you the best price. You could find cheaper but the quality will not be as good as MasterTech. I have never had problems with them. They do emergency calls too but you will pay more.

Gary was absolutely amazing. The quality of work and customer service received was wonderful. He was knowledgeable and explained everything, answered every question I had, and was helpful not only in the problem we scheduled to address but saved us from a major issue down the road we didn’t know we had. I 100% recommend MasterTech and Gary as your technician.

Jenna Lechner

Jon, the tech who came out, was very professional and friendly. I felt comfortable having him in my home, he worked quickly and efficiently, and he was able to answer all my questions without making me feel like an idiot! I emailed them this morning, they responded quickly and Beth suggested their service plans, one of which I signed up for. It was a good experience, a little expensive but they were fast and I'm happy!

Technicians were professional, highly knowledgeable. Service was top-notch.New HVAC system is astonishingly efficient both heating and cooling. Everything was done right the first time, and the installation went extremely fast and flawlessly. Everything was explained to me in a manner that I could understand.Your staff is what makes the company great!

Dillan was excellent. He came for my yearly inspection. He could have rushed through the process, but instead he made a recommendation and ended up spending time in the attic installing a part that could save me more money and headaches down the road. In other words, he didn't cut corners. I appreciate that kind of top-notch service.

Chris showed up as promised, evaluated our problem and offered a solution that gave my father the confidence to allow them to do the work. The estimate was easy to read and made sense. The price was completely reasonable when everything is taken into consideration. These people talk the talk, walk the walk and plumb the plumbing!

I’ve used MasterTech several times since buying my house in 2021. The office staff are always so friendly and helpful when I call and the technicians always do a great job. Tyler and Kyle came out today to fix my AC and they were punctual, respectful, and friendly! They always end up teaching me helpful things whenever they come out to repair things and as a first time home owner, it’s so helpful!

Becky Hart

Guys were able to quickly locate a coolant leak that could have been very expensive but found a much cheaper solution and finished it same day. Installed surge protectors with warranty and got us cooled down again. Very professional and looked to take care of the customer.

Replaced old heat pump and back-up gas furnace with new similar equipment. Got good equipment at great price and absolutely excellent installation. Installers put up with a lot of questions, were very professional, and did excellent work quickly. Couldn't be more pleased with Mastertech overall and especially with great service from the installation team and from the administrative staff. Definitely recommend them.

We called to get some routine maintenance, then our heater stopped working. They changed the schedule to get us in immediately and fixed the problem in less than an hour. We're joining the subscription because the value is very worth the cost.

Friendly tech and knowledgeable! He used my outdoor clean out tube to snake and clear clogged drain. He took the time to mop up spills made in the house and took the time to take care of us. Found the sewer backing up and master tech had it finished and cleaned 2-3 hours later. Good value too for it being after hours.

After a plumbing backup turned my house into a revolving door for strangers - who weren't a bit concerned about me, my stuff, my time, etc - MasterTech was a breath of fresh air. The people from MasterTech that came to my house were nice, professional, and so incredibly quick. The big job that needed excavation to be done was even done within a day. I was blown away by how quick they were.Edit: and again, they got to my house quick, figured everything out, and got it back together before reconstruction was supposed to start. I will be sticking with MasterTech.

Sunday morning and kitchen faucet wouldn't shut off. There was nothing obvious to me. This was a single handle faucet. I shut off water supply to the house and called the Master Tech 24 hour service. The kids and all of the Grandkids were coming over and I needed to have the water on and a functioning faucet. The lady that took my call was friendly and helpful and told me a repairman would soon call me. Shortly thereafter 'John' called and asked what the problem was and recommended that I go out and buy a new faucet and that I was third on his list and he would be here in a couple of hours. John showed up and got to work immediately. Very pleasant man and obviously very skilled. He was done in 15-20 minutes. A big thank you to the lady that answered my original call and to John for his fast and professional service.

MasterTech has the most professional and personable technicians and customer service representatives I’ve ever encountered. They schedule appointments quickly and arrive on time. A text was sent to my phone with pictures of the three employees who would be installing the system before they arrived. Everything agreed upon and signed for electronically was immediately sent to my email for my records and review.

I've used other plumbing services before but mastertech outshines every plumber I've ever used. Every person I have spoken to, whether it's the customer service rep who took my calls or the technicians, they are all so nice and they are all upfront and tell you exactly what the issue is and what could have caused it. Their prices are also the cheapest I was able to find. I regret not using their services sooner! I've got their number saved in my phone and I'm going to be using them for now on. I've definitely told a few friends about them and have already recommended their services.

I cannot speak highly enough of Master Tech and their staff. It's currently -8 and I woke up to my home at 54 degrees. I left a voicemail for MT at 7:30 and received a call at 8:08 AM and a technician was at my home at 9:40 AM. Snow was blocking my external exhaust on the home, so it couldn't create combustion to turn on the furnace. The fix was rather simple, but took time and thinking through the problem. Tyler was amazing. The service was 10/10 and he really took the time to explain to me what was happening. I have a monthly service plan with this company too - that I started in October - and it's been great. They are always on time, professional, reasonably priced and so good at their job. I cannot recommend them enough!!Just here to say again - Master Tech is the best! I highly recommend the monthly service plan and all their technicians are wonderful! Today, Matt was so great with my furnace set up for the cooler months ahead! I really appreciate having such a wonderful company who I know will treat me right!

The girl at the office called to let me know the technician was on the way and texted me his picture so I would know it was him.Tyler, the technician, was on time. He was friendly, personable and knowledgeable about his work. Did the furnace checkup and installed some filters . He showed me different components on the furnace and where to install the filter.When he was done, Tyler briefed me on his findings.This is my first house with gas, so safety was foremost on my mind. Tyler reassured me that my furnace is operating safely and efficiently so no worries.If I ever have a need, I wont hesitate to call them!MasterTech is fantastic!! Extremely fair pricing as well!

Matt and Nathan came to replace an outside hydrant. Nathan made a great suggestion to move it to a better place. They did a GREAT job and left my place way better than they found it. I am HUGELY grateful. They were professional but super nice and pleasant to work with. They had everything they needed on the spot and were done in no time. I am beyond pleased with their work and would call them again in a heartbeat. I am so relieved to have this work done!

Katie Merrill

16:09 01 Oct 21

These guys are good! Set up an appointment online and the next day they called to confirm. Yes! Let me know they were on the way. Told me up front how much it would cost and then, did everything he said he would. Polite, clean and kind. They come when you need them! I will call them every single time. Thanks Mastertech!

Since I recently bought a house that's a little older everything is starting to go out at once. I have called Mastertech twice in the past couple of weeks for my water heater and my air conditioner and both times they came out and fixed the issue quickly. They told me the price before they started work and in the case of my water heater they gave me a few different price options based on what repairs they recommended. I have a few more minor things to do still so I will definitely be calling them back. Everyone I dealt with both times in the office and service call were super helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend if you need something done fast and right.

Had annual furnace checkup and it was first as recently moved to this home. Super easy. The two techs that came were thorough, answered all my questions and were extremely friendly and helpful.

We had a technician come out to fix a major leak under our kitchen sink. He also removed the garbage disposal. Unfortunately there was a clog beneath the work that he did so he didn’t notice it while he was at our house. We called later that day and they sent a technician 2 days later who was a “drain specialist.” He asked incredulously “he didn’t snake the drain?” This reinforced the idea that this all should have been done in one visit. Nearly $700 later we have a functional kitchen sink/faucet. It took about a week from the first call to get this all done. I wish it had been a bit more timely because we were without a kitchen sink the entire time, but I understand they are busy so it’s okay. My biggest complaint is the price. It took minimal supplies and maybe 1.5 hours between the two employees. Seems exorbitant.MasterTech responded to my review and concerns in a very thorough and professional manner, so I added a star to my review. I am not 100% satisfied so I can’t justify a 5 star review, but I would recommend them based on the service provided.

Carie Lawson

18:38 07 May 21

Sunday we had water leaking. I called them on Monday. MasterTech initially scheduled us on Wednesday. Later they called me and said they could send a tech in 1 hour. It is a surprise, a good surprise. Chad came in time and got the job done in 1 hour. He also gave us some good advice to prevent pipe freezing. So far, the work is good ( it is Tuesday now). I am satisfied with the company and Chad.

Had a great experience with MasterTech recently. The water heater in my house needed replacing. I bought the replacement myself, but wanted professional installation. The technician assessed the job quickly and accurately and was right on time. When the time came to do the replacement, he was again right on time. When he left, we had functional hot water, a shiny new heater, and absolutely no mess to speak of. John was extremely professional and friendly, and was willing to answer any questions I had thoroughly and, I felt, honestly. The price seemed fair based on the work and the average cost in the area. Definitely recommend, but always suggest doing comprehensive research for any job you need done!

The were on time, did an excellent job and were reasonably priced. What more can you ask for? I would definitely hire them again. I hired them again since then (6-21-20) and they were great again. I won't hire anyone else.(6 months later) There was a problem with something they installed (not their fault). They came out immediately, fixed it and there was no charge. You can really depend on this company. I highly recommend them.

Michael Richards

17:18 24 Feb 21

For a perfect 5 star I would expect above and beyond what I expected. And yes I know that isn't exactly a coherent thought. Our issue was fixed and our tech was amazing and spot on, he did exactly what we asked of him, and then some! He helped us shim our toilet as well because it was rocking a little.Honestly because of that extra effort he put in I am going to change it to a 5 star. Awesome work Mastertech.

Nate is amazing!!!We had a running toilet and a broken water shut off valve on a Sunday. He called and walked us through how to shut everything off until he could get there. Once here, he took the time to show us how to do everything he was doing. It’s so nice learning from a pro! He had us up and running in no time. Highly recommend Nate!

Jill Schmidlin

18:40 02 Feb 21

Tyson was excellent!! He was patient working with the various options and being candid about the costs of each. Not in a rush. Very personable. Very professional. We have had similar experiences with other techs sent to us. Came within an hour of the call. I think Master Tech pricing is a bit high, but all of the above make it worth it.

16:52 15 Jan 21

Jon and Josh were so helpful, took care of my issue in what seemed like no time, and left me with the peace of mind that the issue was resolved. Their fix is working out perfectly and I would be more then happy to have them out again (hopefully not since no one hopes for plumbing issues 😅) if I have any other issues. Well done gents!

Daniel Smith

18:32 07 Jan 21

Water heater wouldn’t stay lit. Called MasterTech, after calling a couple other plumbers I knew (right before Christmas). Got no answer from the others, but MT answered the first try, and set up an appointment then and there. Chad came out, and cleaned up the old water heater to see how it worked before just replacing it. If need to replace, the cost of the first visit goes toward. I’m happy to say, I have hot water for the holidays! Thanks so much Chad for your friendly professionalism, and effective work.

We have always had good experiences using Mastertech Plumbing. Recently had them replace a faucet. Then we had to have a water heater replaced that was in a very difficult space. A special thanks to Josh for getting a very difficult job done extremely well. I would highly recommend.

Eric Burton

18:18 19 Dec 20

Andrew came on time. Very nice young man. Actually early, two hours before expected. Had drain open, lickety split. Thanks Jerry for approving my $50 off coupon, from the last time you guys came out. Probably five years ago. Lucky I had the coupon; for I was charged after hours rates, though he arrived at 1530 pm? No biggie, I like my hot showers.

We would like to commend the folks at MasterTech for their excellent service to our family last week. We had a couple of routine procedures scheduled and fulfilled during the day. One of them presented a challenge, but Chad saw it through until he was satisfied that it was running well. Later on that night, a major problem suddenly occurred with a different part of the plumbing system: a pipe burst and water flooded the bathroom, sending a stream of water into one of the bedrooms and soaking most of the carpeting. After failing to be able to control the situation ourselves, we made a panicky call to MasterTech, whereupon the woman who answered offered assurance and got help on the way. Nate arrived and immediately went about shutting off the water flow, repairing the problem, keeping us informed, and making sure everything was secure. We are dealing with the aftermath (clean up, new carpeting), but wouldn’t be in as good a position as we are without the as-prompt-as-possible emergency service, professional abilities, and customer care exhibited by the MasterTech people we dealt with that day. Thank you all for your commitment to a job well done and a true concern for your customers! --David and Candy Megahan

Josh from MasterTech came by to repair a faulty shut off valve on my kitchen sink faucet. After a discussion we decided to replace the entire kitchen faucet (installed in 2004) since it leaked and was installed backwards with new shut off valves as well as replace the shutoff valve to the dishwasher. What a professional job he did! Josh is a very personable guy that helped make his visit memorable. Great job Josh!I will be highly recommend MasterTech for your plumbing needs.

Surprisingly fast service. I called them and they had the technicians in my place within 20 minutes. They soon located a replacement for my 18 years old water heater that is not worthy to repair and switched everything within a little over two hours. Professional and reasonable price in my opinion.

I had a leaky kitchen faucet that needed to be repaired and in the process my service tech Devin discovered a damaged valve that also needed to be replaced and my main shut off valve was also leaking and needed to be repaired. He got everything done in one day. Devin was very friendly and efficient. It was a pleasure doing business with him and MasterTech.

Elena Seon

05:10 02 Oct 20

We needed sink hooked up, garbage disposal installed and, we had a leak in an outside faucet. Josh did it all in one call. He was professional, offered me options to save money and explained everything he was going to do. Great experience. Now, I am a loyal customer!

Master Tech's office and work crews are awesome. I had a broken sewer piper, (Josh, Chris, Elliot and Nate), they diagnosed it, priced, it and got it done. Then had drainage issue with HVAC Wyatt and Tyler got it fix and had me on my way in no time. Great work, great pricing, and most importantly great staff. I would recommend for future work in a heartbeat.

Damian Dean

17:40 25 Sep 20

They provide such outstanding services, I wouldn't call anyone else but them, especially if you want it fixed right. Quality and fast is where Master Tech is at!!Josh and Andrew are very professional and friendly. Loved how they went right to work. I would recommend them to replace gas lines.

Kelly McDaniel

Devon and Andrew came out and gave me a quote on installing a water softener system. They were very professional and informative on what the cost and process would look like. Would recommend them to anyone!

Megan Miller

We gave MasterTech a call on a drain line issue. The technician (Tyson) came out promptly and was very professional. He diagnosed the problem quickly and MasterTech was on the job.A company and crew that provides this high a level of customer service is a rarity today. We will definitely use them again (if ever needed) and would certainly recommend.

Mastertech is awesome! I needed my water heater and bathtub faucet looked at. Devin and Nate were so great. They answered all my dumb questions without making me feel stupid and gave me so many options to solving my plumbing issues. I will be using Mastertech to install a new water heater soon! Thanks Devin and Nate!

Kelsey Mescher

16:18 18 Aug 20

We found a leak underneath our kitchen sink and was not able to turn the water off. A MasterTech technician was there within an hour. He was courteous and professional and gave us a couple of repair options. Everything he needed, he had with him and the new valves were installed quickly and he was gone. Great repair experience!

Master Tech replaced my ac/heating unit a couple of years ago and we have been very pleased with the follow-up checkup services we receive. Always very professional!

Josh Burleson installed our Home Depot purchased water softener. He was on time for the appointment, very professional and addressed all our questions. He was very neat in his work and cleanup. We would highly recommend calling MasterTech and Josh for all your needs.

Devon W. was a pleasure to work with. Efficient, clean, knowledgeable. Happy to have me sit with him while he worked so I could ask random plumbing questions that have always intrigued me. Highly recommend this business and Devin!

Chad arrived promptly when I was notified he was in route to my house. He was very friendly and professional and keeping social distancing practices. He was able to give options to get the result I needed. The cost was lower than what I had in mind and was completed in about an hour.I felt bad for him because it was hot and humid today (about 90) and the issue was outside of the house in direct sun...I set up a patio umbrella to cast some shade on him while he worked.Thanks again Chad! I will be calling MasterTech Plumbing for any other plumbing issues that arise!

Isaac and Alex removed a dead snake from my AC unit. They were professional and kind with a great sense of humor given the situation. They checked everything out to ensure it ran correctly and gave me an upfront price. I was quite satisfied.

Josh was so awsome! I had a "simple" leak in my faucet. He got the parts from his truck and fixed it like new, which is saying a lot as this faucet is over 10 years old. Very knowledgeable and friendly!

We had a great experience with Mastertech Plumbing from the time we made the phone call to request service. Our plumber Tyson was friendly, knowledgeable & professional. I would highly recommend this company & him for any plumbing needs.

I had a clogged drain that needed professional assistance. MasterTech was able to get Devin out to my house to fix our issue in record time. Devin was great and very professional and made sure the issue was fixed, the work area was clean and that I was satisfied with his work before he left. I highly recommend MasterTech.

Josh is great! He is the one who usually comes to our house. He installed an overhead tank toilet, which is a tricky and time-consuming job. He overcame many obstacles and stuck with it until the job was completed and done right. Price was also good. MasterTech has always taken care of all our needs in a prompt and professional manner. Emergency service has always been rapid too.

Chris was great. Dispatch was great. We were scheduled quickly. Prices were very competitive. Edit: We had great success having our pipes fixed. Due to Missouri weather things were touch and go but Master Tech sure delivered! We are so please with the fix, financing and friendliness Master tech and our technician Chris Gilpin provided us. Will forever and always us Master tech. Certainly mighty nice people

We had to have emergency service today, Saturday. A serviceman was here in less than an hour. The repairs were made quickly, the charge was not over the top, even though it was not a work day, and the individual was friendly and courteous. We have learned to expect this kind of service from Master Tech. Thank you.

I recommend MasterTech. They show up when they tell you they will show up. They provide a comprehensive estimate and also a good explanation of the work that need to be done. Their work is good quality. They usually have the needed parts on their truck so they can do the task in a timely manner. They clean up the work area after the job is finished,

A great experience. First, on time, service tech was sent out when promised. Second, quick assessment of the problem (faulty sump pump). The tech not only quickly replaced the pump, but he made an alteration that will make it easier whenever a replacement has to be made. Bottom line, a most professional service. Certainly would recommend Master Tech to folks needing their service.

MasterTech is so great to work with. They're quick, clean, do great work, and have fair pricing. But the best thing about MasterTech is their people. Whoever is responsible for their human resources does a terrific job of selecting and/or training them. They're so friendly and provide excellent information and customer service. I highly recommend MasterTech!

Previously I had not been impressed with master tech. However, their technician Dillon not only fixed my emergency pipe break at 1am on a holiday but also saved me as a customer. This was the best service I have ever had at my home. He arrived promptly at 1am. Provided a couple of options on how to fix my problem both in the short and long term and quickly made repairs. He also has provided advice on how to address issues related to the water damage caused by the busted pipe. This was one of the most positive bad situation we have had as homeowners. Thank you Dillon and mastertech.

I had to change my appointment at the last minute and they were able to accommodate my new availability without any hesitation. My tech was really professional (Dillion). I got a call and a text to let me know he was on the way. He fixed my problem quickly and was so friendly. This is the second time that I have had to use a plumber and I will use Master Tech again since I have an old house with old plumbing.
