Solar Hot Water Tanks
Our collapsible solar hot water tanks provide efficient energy storage for residential and commercial heating systems. Designed for easy installation, they reduce transportation costs and labor time. The tanks maintain heat stratification, ensuring optimal energy use for domestic hot water, radiant floors, and space heating.
Heat Exchange Coils
Vertical spiral copper heat exchangers maximize low-temperature heat transfer for solar and wood-fired systems. Tested by Bucknell University, their design improves efficiency by 20% compared to standard models. Self-purging features ensure reliable performance and long-term durability.
Cold Water Storage Tanks
Durable cold water storage tanks serve fire protection, irrigation, and domestic needs. Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials, they feature lightweight, collapsible designs for easy installation. Specifications include NSF-certified liners and insulation for temperature stability.
Energy Management Controls
Our Energy Management Controls automate system efficiency by switching between solar/wood and fossil fuel backups. This reduces fuel consumption and ensures consistent heating. The system prioritizes stored energy use, enhancing overall sustainability and cost savings.
Thermal Storage Systems
Thermal storage systems integrate with solar collectors and wood boilers to store and distribute heat. Designed for multi-zone applications, they support radiant floors, baseboard heating, and duct systems. The collapsible design and lightweight construction simplify retrofitting in existing structures.
