Under normal circumstances no maintenance of the system is required. Due to the shape of the tubes regular rainfall and wind should keep the tubes clean. Should a tube become broken it should be replaced. This, however, is an inexpensive and easy job. Any “handy” person can install a new tube. normal heat tube and SHCMV tube solar water heaters and solar collectors can operate with several broken tubes.
