%X We consider manifolds for solar collectors capable of self-draining action as a means of freeze protection. We study a number of single- and double-header designs, both in the context of domestic and industrial installations. We present both simple theoretical models and experimental results for various promising manifold designs, indicating optimal choices for key design parameters.
