Solar Collector Guide for Homeowners
“A solar collector is the key component of all active solar heating applications.”
Solar thermal collectors are used to convert the solar energy we receive from the Sun into solar thermal energy. Solar thermal energy is simply the energy created when sunlight is converted into heat.
Don’t confuse solar thermal collectors with solar panels. Solar power panels, also known as solar modules or solar cells, convert solar energy into solar electricity.

Basic Principles
So how do collectors convert the radiant energy we receive from the Sun into heat?
Solar Energy Collectors on a Roof When the radiant energy from the Sun reaches an object, the object absorbs some of that energy. The absorbed energy excites the molecules in the object causing them to move. This movement of molecules is heat.
There are a two basic things most solar thermal collectors do to take advantage of this basic physical reaction in order to increase the amount of heat produced and captured…
Increase solar energy absorption by using dark coatings on the absorbing material of the collector. Dark-colored objects absorb more energy than light-colored objects.
Reduce heat loss by using insulation, air and vacuum spaces, or glazing.
And once the heat is captured it is transferred to a fluid, either liquid or air, that is flowing through the collector.

Types of Solar Thermal Collectors
There are three basic types of solar thermal collectors…
Flat Plate Solar Collector: The most common type of collector. Used for both solar water heating and solar space heating.
Evacuated Tube Solar Collector: Used for solar water heating. Best choice for extreme cold conditions or when higher temperatures are needed (above 200 degrees F).
Swimming Pool Solar Collector: Used for solar pool heating. Able to quickly and efficiently heat a large amount of water to low heat temperatures. Most pools are kept around 80 degrees F.

Before You Purchase a Solar Energy Collector…
If you are planning on taking advantage of the federal solar energy tax credit, you need to make sure the collector you purchase is certified by the Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC). The SRCC certification procedure tests both the durability and the performance of the collector. The SRCC certification is needed in order to receive your tax credit.
For more information on applications that use a solar energy collector, check out our page on Solar Heating applications.

Six Rivers Solar

We carry the finest evacuated tube solar collectors on the market, made by Trendsetter Industries.
The TRENDSETTER® TS-30 premium collector is a thermal solar collector that uses twin glass evacuated tubes as the solar absorber. Copper heat pipes are used to transfer the heat from within the evacuated tube to a heat transfer manifold, with metal fins positioned within the evacuated tube to aid heat transfer and hold the heat pipes firmly in place.
The heat transfer manifold consists of a copper header pipe through which heat transfer liquid (water or waterglycol mix) is circulated. The header is designed with dry contact ports into which the heat pipes plug, allowing efficient heat transfer. There is no water inside the evacuated tubes and no direct contact between the heat pipes and the heat transfer liquid, as such the system is suitable for mains pressure.
The manifold and tubes are attached to a stainless steel mounting frame, which can be mounted directly on a roof of suitable pitch. Frame kits are also available which allow mounting on flat roofs, walls or lowpitched roofs. By using commercially available frame kits, pole mounting is also possible.
The TRENDSETTER® solar collector has been designed to be suitable for a wide range of system configurations including open loop, closed loop, drain back and even thermosyphon when coupled with a suitable tank. Collectors may be installed in banks of up to 5 collectors in series (150 tubes maximum) and unlimited parallelconnected banks. Collectors can be used for both domestic and commercial applications.
