EOS Solar
~ Can reduce annual hot
water production
costs by as much as 80-100%
~ Provides independence from
fossil fuels for
a significant part of the year
~ Generates zero greenhouse
gas CO2 emissions, in fact...
it will decrease your overall household CO2 output by up to 30%
~ Designed for high performance in any climate
~ Multiple uses including:
Radiant floor heating, domestic
hot water, pool and spa heating
How It Works
| The EOS twin glass
evacuated tube absorbs and retains up to 96% of the
solar energy it is exposed to due to it's extremely
efficient solar absorptive coating and high insulation
value. |
 |
|
 |
This energy is collected and stored upon our specially
designed recycled aluminum absorption plates. The energy
is then transferred to a copper heat pipe that contains
a non-toxic liquid that is designed to boil at 84°F. The
boiling liquid becomes steam and rises up the tube which
is held in place with a cork based stopper and metal
thermal reflective plate at the top of the evacuated
tube. |
The steam passes up into a condenser bulb at the tip
where it releases it's heat to the bulb and condenses
back into a liquid. The liquid then drops back to the
bottom of the tube to start the process over again.
|
|
 |
This complete evacuated tube assembly is
then inserted into a copper manifold housed within our
specially designed header that is made of a powder
coated extruded aluminum mounted upon stainless steel
rails, and is held in place with a clip at the bottom of
the collector.
|
 |
The fitting into
the copper manifold inside the header is known
as a "dry fitting" as there isn't a transfer of
fluid between the solar loop and the heat pipe
condenser, only heat. A water or glycol based
antifreeze solution is then circulated thru the
copper manifold to absorb the heat for use in
industrial, commercial, and residential heating
of domestic hot water, radiant floors, pools,
and spas. |
|
 |
|
EOS Solar Thermal Systems can be
easily incorporated into any existing Hot Water
generation system.

The collector can
be attached directly to a properly pitched roof,
or can be installed on our variable pitched
mounting frame. The frame can then be attached
directly to a pitched roof, flat roof, pole
mount, or the ground. The frame can even be
inverted and attached directly to vertical
surface as well, providing the collector with
the appearance of an awning. |
