Solar Water Heaters
SunEarth™ direct solar water heaters are designed for installation as
a part of a direct (open loop) solar water heating system or for use
with external heat exchangers in closed loop systems. Available in 65,
80 and 119-gallon capacities these models provide storage for the hot
water produced by the solar collectors and a supplementary electric
heating element that maintains consistent water temperature during
periods when solar energy is not available.
Electrical• 4500 watt heating element - long lasting low-watt density design spreads wattage over larger surface area to prolong element life and maximize efficiency
• 12-yr model features gold plated element
• Pre-wired for surface mount temperature sensor (sensor supplied separately)
Tank Construction• Glasslined Steel Tank – glasslining protects against corrosion to maximize tank life
• 2-inch thick “Environmentally-Friendly” Non-CFC Foam insulation (R16 Value) reduces standby heat loss
Anode Rod • A single magnesium anode rod with stainless steel core protects tank against corrosion in the 65 and 80 gallon models
• The 119 gallon model features two magnesium anode rods for added protection
Multiple Connection Options for Installation Flexibility• Side and top connections for open loop systems or closed
loop systems using an external heat exchanger
