My parents ran this setup for at least 10 years. The system was taken down when it wasn't winterized properly and burst a copper pipe. In the summer, the water heater didn't heat a drop of water. This was low tech copper pipe in an anodized aluminum frame with interior painted black. In the winter, it was back to electric water heating.
