Apricus Evacuated Tube Solar Hot Water Heater

What makes the Apricus Solar Hot Water Heater a Good Buy?

Apricus solar hot water collector by SuperGreen Solutions utilizes the latest high quality, high performance evacuated tube technology to capture a greater amount of solar energy for more hours of the day. Our Apricus tubes have a vacuum between the two glass layers that works similarly to a thermos flask, allowing it to retain up to 95% of the solar energy the tubes capture. This means that even in colder climates and during the winter months, heat is retained and not lost back into the atmosphere at night or when it cools down. Our collectors are rated to handle frost down to -15°C without the use of glycol which will dramatically reduce maintenance of the system and costs.

The SuperGreen Solutions Apricus solar collectors and frames are manufactured in Apricus’s own manufacturing facility which is managed by a fellow Australian and Apricus global CEO – Mick Humphreys, who oversees all operations.

The facility is regularly audited by European, Australian and local authorities to ensure adherence with product standards, labour laws, safety regulations and environmental requirements to surpass Australian Standards (AS2712:2002), SRCC (USA) and Solarkeymark (EU) certifications. The factory is also certified to ISO9001:2008 management and production standards.

Features

The evacuated tube solar collectors that our Super Green Solutions accredited technicians install onto a homes are the same collectors we use in all commercial installation using up to  100 collectors (besides a few small design changes to make collecting multiple collectors easier). Apricus solar collectors from Super Green Solutions can be used for much more than just heating water for baths, showers and kitchens. Apricus evacuated tubes are being used across the globe for so many applications we cannot list them all, but to give you an indication, You can use our collectors for:

Home solar hot water heating.

Residential or commercial pool heaters.

Hydronic heating including radiators, under-floor, space and more.

Pre-heating of commercial high temperature boilers.

Bottle warming in dairies (i.e. De-Bortoli Wines with a 100 x AP-30 installation).

We’ve have even had our tubes used for solar air-conditioning units.

Benefits of Evacuated Tube water hearers by Apricus

As Apricus owns and manages the manufacturing process, they are proud to offer an industry leading 15 year warranty on all Apricus evacuated tube solar hot water collectors installed in both Domestic and Commercial installations!

That means that there is 15 years on the mountings frame and 15 years on the evacuated tubes & heat pipes as well as 15 years on the manifold… Now that is a Super Green Solutions kind of piece of mind!

The Apricus pump station by Super Green Solutions moves water from the storage tank through the copper heat exchange located within the manifold. Bear in mind that at this point, there is no water running through the tubes, the heat pipe bulb is simply transferring the heat retained inside the tube into the cooler water running through the manifold.

As this process happens, the vapour inside the heat pipe condenses and turns back into liquid returning to the bottom of the heat pipe so the process can begin all over again.

Rheem Solar hot water Loline

Why buy Rheem Solar Hot water heater from Super Green Solutions

As you know Solar hot water collectors absorbs free energy from the sun and use this energy to heat water. By relying primarily on renewable energy sources, solar water heaters features much lower emissions than other forms of water heating devices, that rely on burning fossil fuels to create energy. This makes solar water heaters from Super Green Solutions an extremely good thing for our environment, and very economical to run.

Solar water haters by Rheem, from Super Green Solutions come in both roof and ground mounted forms to suit various applications with a choice of either electric or gas back-up boosters for days when the suns rays are not so strong or on mostly overcast days. There are even model special models suited to particularly cold areas, which means every family can enjoy the benefits a solar hot water heater by Rheem and Super Green Solutions can offer.

Features

Wide range of Systems ranging in size from 160 – 410L

Powered mostly by the sunlight a limitless renewably energy sources

Optional Roof and ground mount models

Your Choice of electric or gas boosters

Makes a large impact to help Reduce greenhouse gas emissions

Benefits

Rinnai Heat Pump water heaters

Heat Pump water heaters work just like an air conditioner, but in reverse, the SuperGreen Solutions, Rinnai HOTFLO Split Heat Pump transfers ambient heat found in the air outside the unit directly to the water stored inside the tank, offering very similar benefits to an electric boosted solar hot water system. These Heat Pumps are perfect for our climate and for situations where a roof-mounted solar system is not practical.

All SuperGreen Solutions approved Heat Pumps are so efficient that they only use approximately one third of the power that the equivalent standard electric hot water unit will use. As such these Rinnai water heaters should reduce your environmental impact, whilst also reducing your hot heating water costs by up to 35%.

Features

Continuous gas flow

Quality Japanese design and manufacturing in Rinnai’s state of the art facility.

World leading High quality component engineered to last.

Quick connect junctions and systems for temperature controller & cables

Pure temperature stability technology to provide a perfectly stable outlet water temperature.

Class Leading 6 star efficiency across the range of 16 to 26 litre units

Heat pumps

Compares well with Home solar hot water units

Commercial grade stainless steel tank

Durable compact compressor, heat exchanger and control system

10 Year Warranty

Designed to be Manageable in two pieces for easy transport

For installation guidelines, please see downloads section

Rinnai Instantaneous Gas & Heat pump hot water and Rinnai Continuous gas flow water heater

Rinnai Continuous gas flow water heater

The Rinnai INFINITY Instant Gas hot water units by SuperGreen Solutions work by heating water as it passes through the unit. So you only use energy when you turn the tap on. This process makes the Rinnai INFINITY from SuperGreen Solutions an extremely energy efficient option, as it only heats water when required. In turn, it reduces your running costs, as well as greenhouse gas emissions. Add to this, the optional convenience of water controllers, which will allow you to set your hot water to the perfect temperature.And when you combine a Rinnai INFINITY system with one of our SuperGreen Solutions advanced water controllers, you will have one of the most technically sophisticated hot water systems on the market.

What is a Sun Flux Solar Hot water unit?

Simply Put, it’s a new way to heat water in your Hot water tank, from Solar PV panels. Rather than using 2 or 3 Solar Thermal Hot water Collectors.

Sun Flux is quicker to install, as No copper tubes or Plumbing up to the roof and back is required. Plus it saves money as it does not need a Plumbing Contractor. A secondary benefit is that, you can use your existing hot water tank, but now run it from the sun. Saving a bundle. Conventional Solar hot water units require Plumbing to the Solar Thermal collectors and a new Tank matched to the collectors.

The Sun Flux Hot Water Controllers from SuperGreen Solutions have been designed to work with standard electric hot water tanks, with a standard elements and thermostats. By using the latest cutting edge microprocessors and IGBT technology they are able to create a highly efficient modified DC output much like AC without the loss in efficiency.

It works independently from your Existing Solar Power system if you have one. ( If you don’t currently have a SuperGreen PV Solar system, we can Supply and install a PV solar system with the SuperGreen Sun Flux Water heating unit and match all the panels to look alike. )

A Sun Flux Hot Water Controller unit from SuperGreen Solutions is one of the most efficient ways of harnessing and storing solar energy with up to 96% peak efficiency Because you can store Solar energy in your Hot water Tank. Use it later and not use Utility power to do so.
