ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a cylindrical water storage tank for a solar water heater which tank is entirely surrounded by a layer of insulating material, said cylindrical tank being arranged to be horizontally disposed in use and having water outlet means in an upper region thereof and water inlet means in a lower region thereof, wherein the portion of the insulating layer surrounds the upper region of the cylindrical tank is thicker than the portion of the insulating layer which surrounds the lower region of the tank. The use of thicker insulation in the upper region of the tank provides good insulation under night time conditions for the region of the tank usually containing hot water. Thinner insulation in the lower region of the tank enables heat to be lost from the tank under stagnation conditions.
