To learn about the building blocks of solar hot water systems, the applications of hot water and a system schematic:
Building Blocks of Solar Thermal
- Solar Collectors
- Each Solar Collector is rated by the International Energy Agency at 2 to 2.5 KW-thermal.
- Each Solar Collector Reduces CO2 by 2000 to 3000 Kilograms per Year
- Heat Transfer Station
- Heat Transfer Stations Contain Pumps, Heat Exchangers, and Controls to Transfer Heat and Manage the System.
- Scalable from 10 to 200 KW-thermal.
- Solar Tank – Atmospheric Stainless Solar Tanks are the Preferred Long-Lasting Solar Tank
- All SolarHot components are Made in the USA

Solar Thermal Applications
- Dormitories and Hotels
- Schools
- Hospitals
- Cafeterias
- Fitness Centers and Child Care Centers
- Maintenance Facilities
Solar Collectors
SolarHot Solstice Collector
- Designed Specifically for Hot Water Heating
- Highly Rated By SRCC
- Made in the USA
 72 Roof Mounted SolarHot Solstice 4X10s
Month By Month Solar Contribution
Solar fraction: percentage of solar energy in the system [SFn]
Hospital Hot Water - Example
- Example – Hospital, Mexico City
- 30 SolarHot Solstice 4'X8' Solar Collectors Projected to Provide
over 75% of Yearly Hot Water for both the Childrens and the Nursing
Buildings.
- Reduce the consumption of gas by the Hospital’s Steam Boilers by 1 Million Megajoules each Year.
- Reduce the Production of Carbon Dioxide by the Steam Boilers by 200,000 Kilograms each Year.
Solar Hot Water Concepts
The Solar Tank 
Atmospheric Solar Tank
- Costs 65% less than a pressurized storage tank
- Customizable and built to fit any sized space
- Made in USA
Dormitory Example
- Black Line – Ground Water Temperature in Mexico City
- Red Line – Atmospheric Solar Tank Temperature – shows the contribution of solar hot water over a full year
- Green Line – Existing Hot Water Tank Temperatures – Note that The Solar Tank Can be Hotter than the Conventional Tank
