Heating with Solar Energy
An Investment for the Future Finite fossil fuel reserves and the dangerous effects of climate change are two of the biggest challenges we face today. With the heating sector as one of the largest consumers of energy, it’s time to rethink the way in which we consume energy. With home heating accounting for approx. 40% of our annual energy consumption, finding ways to conserve precious fossil fuels and substituting with renewable energies whenever possible is key for a sustainable energy policy and our future.
2/ 3 A Solar Program Unlike Any Other You have decided to make a significant contribution towards essential energy savings and CO2 reduction. Now choose a partner you can trust. 30+ years in the making Excellence takes time. With over 30 years in the solar business, it’s not surprising that our solar systems are unlike anything on the market: Time-tested, fine-tuned system technology built to perfection and backed by an extensive support network. Built to outperform Our solar systems are all about quality.
The Complete System Approach Our solar systems are designed to maximize your solar experience at every level. From the design stage right to the performance of your system, we work to provide you with the best possible solar experience. 1 Solar Thermal Collectors High-performance vacuum tube and flat plate collectors for hot water, pool, space or process water heating and solar cooling applications. Exceptional construction with highly effective absorber surfaces and impact-resistant solar glass.
4/ 5 Design & Installation Support Our complete system approach extends far beyond our system technology. From a pre-installation analysis to sizing and design support, an in-house support team assists designers and installers every step of the way. Plus, a network of representatives across North America provides in-field support. Planning & Design Software Our proprietary solar simulation program ESOP NA 4.
VITOSOL 200-F VITOSOL 100-F High-performance flat plate solar collectors Your Money Well Spent With the Vitosol flat plate collector series you can’t go wrong. No matter if you select the premium 200-F or the entry-level 100-F series, you will love the performance, quality construction and value. Suitable for all types of solar thermal installations, get the best use out of your flat plate collectors in a solar hot water or pool heating application.
