Solar Panels Plus manufactures it's line of SRCC Certified solar
thermal collectors and is a distributor of Apricus brand
solar thermal collectors. The state-of-the-art SPP-30 solar thermal
systems are capable of efficiently producing enough hot water for
a family of six. The Apricus 30-tube collectors provide solutions
for families up to four. The Apricus 30-tube collector performance is approximately
80% of SPP performance for a 30-tube collector. SPP also offers a SPP-25, a 25-tube collector which has the approximately the performance as the Apricus AP-30 and is designed for a family of 4. The key features of the SPP Solar
Thermal Collectors are as follows:
Solar Panels Plus offers Evacuated
Tube Collector Systems for solar water heater applications
including solar thermal collectors, pumping stations, pumps, tanks,
controllers, valves, complete installation kits, support, training
and warranty service. Solar Panels Plus offers it's own line of
SPP collectors which have the highest SRCC ratings of any collectors,
and in addition, Solar Panels Plus also offers the well regarded Apricus brand collectors.

SPP offers complete installation-ready solar water heating
system kits, as well as a wide range of individual components
including collectors, tanks, heat exchangers, pumps, controllers,
valves, fittings and more. SPP also provides free training,
engineering and design assistance to it's customers. Below,
see some of the things that make the SPP-brand
collectors the top choice for both commercial and residential
solar water heating systems. |

So what makes the SPP-30
the worlds best and most efficient solar water heater collector?
Our people do. The goal was to make a more durable, less costly,
and easier to install collector that would outperform the competition
in its solar thermal collection efficiency. We succeeded. Read
on to see a few of the things we changed. |
| |
We started with a better
performing selective optical coating formula to absorb more,
and reflect less, solar energy. |
 |
| |
We used a new header design with more heat exchange
surface area inside the manifold (360º contact with heat transfer fluid).
|
| |
We
made the condenser bulb (and receiver) longer and thinner which
allows it to be inserted into single piece header instead
of welding the receiver to a split header (see above diagrams).
In the process we gave the bulb a larger heat exchange
surface area.
We centered the
heat pipe in the tube instead of having it run down one side
of the tube.
Also, we sealed the end of the tube where it plugs into the
manifold with a thermal cap, instead of leaving it exposed. |
 |
We realize that a superior
design, by itself, isn't enough. So we add a
full 10-year warranty, superior quality
control and fanatical customer support. Instead of simply buying
a collector and putting our name on it, we make the extra effort
with a factory dedicated to building our systems exactly the way
we want them.
Solar Panels Plus is pleased to offer our collectors in
a installation-ready kit, or ala carte in conjunction with our
full line of best-of-breed components. Due to the superior thermal
performance of the SPP-30 collectors, you will use less collectors
to do the same job - saving on installation labor
cost, plumbing and materials costs, and roof space. And as our
customer you will save even more time, money and aggravation when
you take advantage of our free training, design and engineering
support.
