Solar Thermal

Solar thermal energy is a technology for harnessing solar energy for thermal energy (heat).  If you have a significant Hot Water or Warm Air demand, our Solar Thermal systems might be a fit.  Offering highly efficient systems, the typical payback on our solar thermal systems is faster than 5 years.

The basic principle to all solar thermal systems is simple: solar radiation is collected and the resulting heat conveyed to a heat transfer medium- usually a fluid, but also air in the case of air collectors. The heated medium is used either directly- for example to heat swimming pools- or indirectly, by means of a heat exchanger, which transfers the heat to its final destination- for instance: space heating.

Solar thermal can be successfully applied to a broad range of heat requirements including domestic water heating, space heating, and drying. New, exciting areas of applications are being developed-in particular, solar assisted cooling. System design, costs and solar yield are constantly being improved.
