Types of Solar Water Heaters We Offer

Here are the two major types of solar water offered by KCP Solar Company:

• Flat Plate Collector (FPC)

They are the most popular type of solar water heater, consisting of an insulated rectangular box covered with glass. Water passes through a series of interconnected copper pipes beneath the glass cover. Both glazed and unglazed plate collectors are used in this heater, depending on the application and purpose. 

• Evacuated tube collectors (ETC)

Here, solar radiation is absorbed by glass tubes or 3T tubes that consist of multiple layers. The inner tank of ETC is coated with insulators for higher efficiency. Additionally, the magnesium anode present in these heaters enhances the durability and longevity of the heaters.
