Step 3 - How the Solar Home Energy System works

In a Nutshell... The Compound Parabolic Concentrator vacuum tube collectors capture and absorb the sun's radiation. The heat from the tubes is then conducted to the fluid flowing through them. The hot fluid from the collector is circulated via flexible tubes by a pump through to a copper coil inside the insulated tank. The coil conducts the heat and the resulting hot water flows from the outlet valve. The hot water is delivered to wherever it is needed throughout the house.
