Hot Water Heater

Solar Hot Water Heaters

Hot water represents the second largest energy consumer in American households. A typical 80 gallon (300 l) electric hot water tank serving a family of four will consume approximately 150 million BTUs in its seven year lifetime. This will cost approximately US$3,600 (at US$0.08 per KWH), not accounting for fuel cost increases. Then it will be replaced by another one just like it. Hmm. Maybe we should rethink this...

Generally accepted rules of thumb for solar thermal collector sizing based on your climatic region:

In the Sunbelt, use 1 square foot (0.09 m2) of collector per 2 gallons (7.6 l) of tank capacity (daily household usage).
In the Southeast and mountain states, use 1 square foot of collector per 1.5 gallons (5.7 l) of tank capacity.
In the Midwest and Atlantic states, use 1 square foot of collector per 1.0 gallon (3.8 l) of tank capacity.
In New England and the Northwest, use 1 square foot of collector per 0.75 gallon (2.8 l) of tank capacity.

Based on these rules of thumb, a household of four with an 80 gallon (300 l) tank will need approximately 40 square feet (3.7 m2) of collector in Arizona, 55 square feet (5.1 m2) of collector in South Carolina, 80 square feet (7.4 m2) of collector in Iowa, and 106 square feet (9.8 m2) of collector in Vermont.

Our systems are "Closed Loop System" (water never runs through anything but FOOD GRADE material) as above, but WITHOUT THE DISADVANTAGES!!

In addition to this: our systems offer heat preservation layer between outer tank and inner tank. So neither pressure water tank or non-pressure water tank will freeze. This makes this system THE IDEAL SYSTEM.

Our pressurized systems are made for the higher pressures of city water systems.

If you are "off-grid" using lower psi pumps you can use our "Non-Pressurized" (read: Low-Pressurized) systems and save money in the process!

These units can be used in freezing temperatures as well as tropical ones!

The advantage of this system over the batch heater is that solar heat is stored in a well-insulated tank, so hot water can be used any time, without the penalty of overnight losses.

These units can be used in freezing temperatures as well as tropical ones! This makes this an IDEAL SYSTEM.

We recommend hooking these simple yet powerful solar system into your current hot water heating system. The common system is a TANK which can now be used as a backup to your solar. Just by connecting the SOLAR HOT WATER to your current tank's COLD INPUT.
