Our high quality collectors begin with the most important part of a solar water collector... the absorber and coating. Our absorbers & coating are manufactured in Germany by the Tinox Corporation. The Tinox coating is the highest rated selective coating in the world (95% absorption and 3% irradiance). In addition the absorber fins are ultrasonically welded to the copper risers rather than a solder or mechanical crimp connection which will in most climates loosen over time.
The highly durable and efficient absorber is incased within a low iron prism solar glass and an electrostatic black coated aluminum frame. A thick UV resilient EPDM gasket connects the frame with the glass (no screws!). Our collectors carry a 12 year warranty.

The low iron prism solar glass reduces glare and improves performance while also hiding the inside absorber from view. The stripes from the absorber cannot be clearly seen from the ground level of a home or building.
Our low iron prismatic solar glass has passed Europe's ISO for hailstone resistance.

The electrostatic coated aluminum frame has a unique patented structure that provides incredible stability. Each corner is reinforced with thick aluminum braces and the midsection includes an underlying cross beam.
