Solar Thermal Heating
Solar Water
Heating systems capture heat energy from the sun using a Heat
Transfer Fluid. The fluid then transfers that solar heat to your
domestic water supply. Solar Water Heating systems are a simple,
reliable, and cost-effective way to harness the sun’s energy. A
Solar Water Heating system will pay for itself in energy savings
within 5-8 years and will last a total of 20-30 years.
GenPro Energy Solutions distributes the best Solar Hot Water
systems available today.
Most American
homes and businesses use fossil fuels - natural gas,
electricity, or oil to heat their homes and water. With energy
prices continuing to rise, the cost of hot water and a warm
house can really add up. GenPro Energy Solutions offers
a range of products for heating both your water and your living
spaces using the free energy of the sun.
Solar Hot Water
Solar Hot Water systems have been in use for over a century and
with today’s technological advances, Solar Hot Water can be
operated efficiently and affordably in any climate. Regions with
temperatures that fall below freezing require the use of an
indirect or drain-back system, while warmer, sunnier
climates can use a direct system, which directly heats the water
to be used.
Solar Hot Water
systems will reduce our nation’s growing demand for energy from
fossil fuels. By installing a Solar Hot Water system, a typical
household can meet 50 to 80 percent of their hot water needs. In
warm sunny climates like Hawaii, a Solar Water Heater can meet
100 percent of a household’s hot water needs. Reduced demand for
fossil fuels will also improve the environment by reducing air
and water pollution as well as the heat-trapping gases that
cause global warming.
Solar Collector
The most popular type of solar collector for water heating is
the flat panel design (other types include evacuated-tube,
concentrating, and integral collector storage). GenPro’s
flat panel collector is an insulated weatherproof enclosure with
an absorber plate, copper flow tubes, and a low-iron tempered
glass cover. This transparent cover allows solar energy to pass
through and be absorbed by the patented Thermafin copper
absorber. The heat is then transferred to the fluid circulating
through the copper tubing.
