Swiss Sun evacuated solar tubes

How this supersedes other solar tubes?
1. This solar technology includes the patented Low E glass. This uses a special low iron glass formula which has reduced the reflective properties and increases the absorption.
2. Because the glass surface is not flat. It has 360 deg absorbtion ability, which give better performance than all other flat solar technologies, giving a more even output throughout the day and a higher output at low outdoor temperatures can be achieved with this technology.
3. Each solar tubes has twin-skin vacuum filled glazing for better heat retention. Just like a thermos flask, once the heat is in it becomes trapped.
This solar technology is sold in the following countries:
Australia, USA, Canada, Middle East, UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Sweden, Bulgaria, Greece, Portugal, Slovenia, Cyprus, Hungary, Spain, Singapore and South Africa.

- Swiss Sun evacuated solar tubes are amongst the most efficient and reliable solar collectors on the market but beware of imitations.
- In most cases, 20 solar tubes can provide for a family of 4 - 5 persons.
- 360 deg heat absorbtion with twin glazed tubes makes for the most efficient solar technology.

Skills and equipment
To undertake an evacuated tubes installation requires competant but basic knowledge of plumbing principles. If you are changing the hot water cylinder, then a Part P qualified plumber is recommended.
The solar tubes themselves come pre-built at the factory, so hoisting the panel up to the roof using correct safety equipment is relatively straight forward. A scaffolding tower up to roofline level is required for a safe working platform.
The electrical set up is basic, but if you are taking an electrical spur from the bathroom area, then a Part P electrical qualification is required.
Think safety first, work alongside a qualified plumber if unsure. Full step by step instructions are supplied with all solar kits.

Their are some companies who are importing and selling poor-quality Chinese systems in the UK. Solar Trade Suppliers (UK) has been approached by these companies and declined there products. Generally speaking they are made with lower grade raw materials and are not manufactured to a high quality and as a result are not as efficient as evacuated tube collectors should be.
A cheap option is often a false economy were longevity and performance are concerned.
