The Apricus system utilizes the natural energy of the sun to significantly reduce your monthly utility bill for heating and hot water, two of the largest consumers of energy. Federal tax incentives and, in many areas, local rebate programs help to accelerate your return on investment in addition to the energy savings already provided by the system.
A single Apricus solar thermal collector can reduce CO2 levels as much as planting more than 500 trees and is the perfect choice for people wanting to become part of the SOLUTION by reducing their carbon footprint.
Water heating and space heating accounts for more than 60% of the average households utility bill. Installing a solar water heating system can offset 60-80% of your annual water heating energy costs and reduce your carbon footprint.
How Does It Work?
The Apricus evacuated tube solar collector utilizes energy from the sun to provide hot water and space heating for homes and businesses.
Solar Collector Parts
- Collector manifold
- Glass wool insulation
- Copper header pipe (liquid flow)
- Stainless steel mounting frame
- Evacuated tube (solar absorber)
- Heat transfer fin and heat pipe
Collector Operation
Step 1: Sunlight is absorbed inside the evacuated tube causing it to heat up.
Step 2: The heat pipe inside the tube carries this thermal energy up to the manifold box.
Step 3: Fluid circulates from the storage tank up through to the header pipe and extracts the energy from the hot heat pipe tips.
Step 4: The newly heated fluid circulates back to the storage tank where it can be used and the cycle begins again.
