Solar Hot Water Heaters a cost-effective way to
generate hot water for your home. They can be used in any climate and uses free
energy--the sun! We offer everything needed for the Solar Hot Water Heater
systems from solar water storage tanks and controllers to the evacuated tubes
and flat plate collectors.
Silicon Solar Inc is the home of the
SunMaxx evacuated solar tube collectors. Evacuated tubes feature parallel rows
of transparent glass tubes. The outer glass tube and the metal absorber tube is
attached to a fin that absorbs solar energy but averts radiative heat loss.
These collectors are used more frequently for U.S. commercial applications.
Commercial applications include laundromats, car washes, military laundry
facilities and eating establishments. Offering the latest in evacuated tube technology, we continue to provide
the industries most affordable, cost effective and reliable sustainable
products.
Flat plate collectors are insulated,
weatherproofed boxes that contain a dark absorber plate under one or more glass
or polymer covers. The general use of these collectors are for residential
buildings.
Solar hot water Controllers control the switching on and off of the
solar pump as a function of the collector and storage temperature.
Most Solar how water heaters need a
well-insulated Tank. Tanks have an inlet and outlet, allowing
the heated water to enter the tank and exit when needed. Silicon Solar offers
the best and most-efficient tanks.
All of Silicon Solar Inc advanced solar
heating products offer high quality and customer value. With products designed
for both commercial and residential applications, Silicon Solar Inc remains
focused in offering the industries leading products and services.
Although the initial cost of a Solar
Hot Water Heater is greater than for conventional water heating systems such as
electric or gas systems, the life-cycle cost of a solar system is actually 20%
lower than a conventional one. This is because the other systems carry the
added costs of electricity or gas, where the energy of the sun is free. If you
are building a new home and you choose to incorporate a a Solar Hot Water
System, your savings can be even more, since the cost of the system can be
included in the mortgage.

Solar Radiant Heating Kits:
If you are interested in one of our
Pre-Packaged Home Heating Kits, all you have to know is the size of your home
and the amount of your heating bill that you want to offset. You can purchase
all the major components you will need right here from Silicon Solar. No need
to have to work through complicated calculations to determine BTU production or
heat loss. These systems are capable of providing the majority of the heat for
your home or business that is less than 10-20 years old.
Solar Evacuated Tube Collectors:
Silicon Solar offers SunMaxx evacuated
tube collectors, which are among the highest quality collectors available.
These collectors are able to generate heat through the coldest of winters, even
under overcast conditions, thanks to superior insulation. They consist of two
layers of extremely durable borosilicate glass which maintain a vacuum in
between that acts as a superb insulator. If you would like to learn more about
the benefits of solar evacuated tubes, feel free to contact a product
technician at 1-888-SOLAR-11. They will gladly answer any questions you may
have.
Flat Plate Solar Collectors:
Flat Plate Solar Collectors are a
glazed collectors which feature a coating which maximizes heat absorption, aluminum
framing which can withstand heavy weight and is weather resistant, and interior
fiberglass insulation which allows for greater efficiency. The combination the
latest energy efficiency technology and a strong heat exposure allow for
optimal heat transfer and makes these lights the highest in BTU performance.
Our Flat Plate Solar Collectors are customized to suit applications based on
the US standard rather than the European or Chinese market. This is done in
order to keep your costs down.
Thermosyphon Solar Hot Water:
Our Thermosyphon Solar Hot Water
Systems are available in 40 and 80 gallon models. These systems are among the
most affordable and easy to install of Solar Hot Water Systems. No matter where

temperature you prefer.
Solar Water Storage Controllers:
Our Solar Water Storage Controllers are
for use with Solar Thermal Systems which consist of evacuated tube collectors
and a Solar How Water Storage Tank. These Controllers allow you to regulate the
operation of the circulator pump based on collector temperature and storage
temperature.
Solar Plate Heat Exchangers:
Solar Plate Heating Exchangers are
utilized in processes such as:
- Heating
- Cooling
- Refrigeration
- Hydronic
- Steam processes
- Industrial Processes
There are significant advantages to
selecting a brazed plate heat exchanger rather than a traditional one.
