BIS certified & MNRE approved solar water heaters for homes and businesses in Bangalore. ETC, FPC and glass lined systems. Reduce water heating costs by up to 80% with systems designed to last 15+ years.
Solar water heater installation is one of the most efficient and cost-effective ways to reduce electricity consumption while enjoying a reliable supply of hot water throughout the year. At Kamal Solar, we specialise in installing high-performance solar water heating systems for residential homes, apartments, hotels, hospitals, and industrial facilities across Bangalore and Karnataka.
Our systems use clean solar energy to heat water naturally, helping you lower your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. With over 25 years of experience in renewable energy solutions since 1998, our trained technicians ensure every solar water heater installation is performed with precision using BIS-certified, MNRE-approved components.
Kamal Solar supplies and installs three types of solar water heating systems, each suited to different requirements and budgets.
The most popular solar water heater type in India. Vacuum-sealed glass tubes with copper heat pipes absorb solar radiation with minimal heat loss. Ideal for Bangalore's climate, works even on partially cloudy days. Available in capacities from 100 LPD to 500 LPD.
Best for: Residential homes, apartments, small guesthouses
Flat plate collectors use a copper absorber plate inside a glazed insulated box. FPC pressurised systems deliver hot water under pressure, making them ideal for multi-storey buildings, hard-water areas, and locations requiring consistent pressure. Available from 100 LPD to 1,000 LPD+.
Best for: Apartments, high-rise buildings, hard-water zones, hotels
Glass-lined storage tanks with superior corrosion resistance are paired with ETC or FPC collectors for longer tank life in hard-water areas. The glass lining prevents rust and scale buildup, extending the storage tank lifespan to 15+ years even with Bangalore's municipal water supply.
Best for: Areas with hard or chlorinated water supply
The most common question our customers ask is whether to choose an ETC or FPC solar water heater. Here is a clear comparison to help you decide:

|---|---|---|
| Water Pressure | Non-pressurised (gravity flow) | Pressurised (works at any floor) |
| Water Quality | Standard municipal supply | Hard water & municipal supply |
| Building Type | Independent homes, low-rise | Apartments, high-rise, hotels |
| Climate Suitability | Excellent — works in diffused light | Good — direct sunlight preferred |
| Price Range | ₹20,720 – ₹44,585 (100–300 LPD) | ₹31,500 – ₹1,10,500 (100–500 LPD) |
| Lifespan | 10–15 years | 15–20 years |
| Maintenance | Low — tube replacement if needed | Low — periodic descaling |
