The evacuated tube solar collector works by absorbing solar energy in the form of UV rays and converting it into thermal energy. An evacuated tube solar collector contains a number of evacuated tubes. Each evacuated tube is responsible for independently absorbing the sun's radiation that reaches it.
Why use Solar Heating?
Evacuated Tube Solar Collector -- renewable source of free energy. Sun is an infinite, unlimited and free source of energy
Substantial savings on energy costs. Averaging annually 65% -- 80% savings of energy needed to heat water (up to 100% in summer months)
No maintenance cost. Solar Collectors heat water at no cost, on the other hand; to heat water with natural gas or electricity is very expensive
Great investment. Solar Collector will pay itself off within 4 to 5 years, while life span of it is minimum 20 years. So, in next 15 years you get inexpensive or free water heating
Environmentally friendly. Evacuated Collector provides energy with absolutely no pollution
Qualities:
Double walled evacuated tubes prevent heat loss
Copper heat pipe promotes high efficiency and fast heat transfer rates
Independent tube technology - broken tubes do not affect system operation
Works on UV rays not heat; UV rays will still be absorbed even on cold days
Water does not enter the tubes thus preventing freezing
Corrosion resistance high quality copper header
Light weight aluminum frame and manifold casing
Maintenance free - built to last at least 20 years
CSA , ISO, CE,SRCC and Solar Keymark approved
