The Apricus solar collector tubes have a vacuum between two glass layers that work similarly to a thermos flask by retaining up to 95% of the solar energy they capture. This means that heat is retained and not lost into the atmosphere in colder climates and during the winter months.
The Apricus solar hot water collectors passively track the sun, reaching peak output in the early morning and holding its peak until late afternoon. The evacuated tube system is significantly more efficient that traditional flat plate collectors or plate in tube collectors.
Heating water is usually the single biggest energy user in your home, a solar hot water system can reduce your hot water charges and save approximately a quarter of your regular power bill.
