How It Works -
New Generation AWS Solar Conversion
System
The rising prices of electricity, gas
and fuel for your car, saving energy has become a real concern
for everybody.
There are many ways to reduce your energy bills without compromising
your lifestyle. Hot water is something we just can't do without,
as there is
nothing like a good, hot shower. Hot water, however, requires
lots of energy, as much as 15kWh for an average family of
four.
That can equate to more than half of your household's energy
consumption and therefore, your energy bill.
Fortunately, can greatly contribute to the energy required
for hot water and heating, cutting usage of traditional
energy sources.
This means that your bills are less each month. Furthermore,
the money spent on your solar collector is actually an investment
that will provide long term returns, unlike paying money
on bills that is gone forever!
Just as one would prefer to buy a house rather
than rent one, you can also "own" your energy
by installing an
Hot
Water System vs. "renting" energy from the utilities
companies.
An
Hot Water System can be installed in a new house as a complete
water heating system, used to replace an old system, or
even retrofitted into an existing water heating system.
The cylindrical shape of the evacuated tube allows the sun's
rays and direct day light to perpendicularly strike the
absorber surface for most of the day and I.A.M values actually
increase away from the perpendicular, resulting in maximum
heat output -

Standard AS 2712
ALWAYS HOT WATER
In fact the Hot Water System generates higher
water temperature beyond what is comfortable
to shower under, so an adjustable Temperature Limiting Valve
is included.

WINNING DESIGN
The
Hot Water System was awarded the prestigious industry award:
'Energy Efficient Product of the Year' for 2007 by the GreenPlumbers®.
Hot Water
System Efficiency Comparison (Melbourne Victoria)
Winter: Based upon solar installation
of 296W/m2 and an ambient temperature of 9.9 degrees Celsius
in Melbourne, the evacuated
tube
solar collector is onAverageper m2 of
aperture over the flat plate solar collector.
Summer: Based upon solar installation of 861W/m2 and an ambient
temperature of 19.8 degrees Celsius in Melbourne,
the evacuated tube solar collector is on average 51.5% more
efficient.
