Solar water heaters are the most cost effective way to reduce carbon emissions and reduce dependence on imported energy. Using energy from the sun to heat water is the best use of solar energy!
This hitech unit uses the sun's heat to raise the temperature in an evacuated glass " heat tube". This heat is then directly transferred to the water, heating it up in the process. The evacuated tube act like giant thermos, allowing 93% of the sun's radiation in and only 3 to 5% out. The tank is insulated by compressed foam materials. Rockwool insulated systems are suitable for domestic and commercial applications. These heaters are based on the reliable and more efficient evacuated glass tube technology which is capable of providing hot water 24 hours a day without using electricity depending on conditions and storage capacity. These heaters have the provision for electrical connection which can be used in case of consecutive non sunny days.
The coated layer on the vaccum tubes absorbs radiation of sunlight. It is then transferred to the water and it gets heated, hot water being lighter "rises up" to the tank and cold water from the tank flows down to the vaccum tube to start a circulation by thermo siphon.
This Solar Water Heating System consists of a Solar Flat Plate Collector made up of copper tube and plate with black selective coating for solar energy collection housed in an insulated box made of aluminium sheet. Due to superconductivity of copper, water gets heated to maximum temperature
A heat pump water heater, relies on a compressor to function. The compressor absorbs the heat from the air and transfers it to the storage tank which enables the water to be heated. A heat pump water heater does not create heat but instead uses electricity to absorb heat from the air to transfer it to the water.
