               Key Benefits    FREE ENERGY FROM THE SUN

  • Skylight looks of attractively styled Gobi collectors, with bronze anodized frame and anti-glare glass cover, grace any home and easily adapt to any roof style.

  • The counter-flow design of the Helio-Pak is the most efficient heat transfer known. Coupled with the large copper surface and heat transfer enhancing construction of the heat exchanger and the highly efficient Gobi blackcrome collectors, output is lasting and superior to other systems.

Cool Climate

HOW IT WORKS


 When there is sufficient heat to be drawn from the collectors, the controller automatically activates the pumps. Heated solar fluid is then circulated from the collectors, through the heat exchanger, where its heat is transferred to water in the storage tank. The solar liquid is then pumped back to the collectors to once again be reheated. This circulation loop will continue as long as there is heat to be drawn from the collectors. During times when there is little or no sun, a backup heating system will be activated to provide adequate hot water.

WHAT'S INCLUDED


• Solar collectors with mounting hardware
• Helio-Pak heat-transfer appliance (with Standard Delta-T controller)
• Expansion tank
• Glycol (heat transfer fluid)
• DOS discs

                                                                             PREMIUM PACKAGE UPGRADE


Upgrading your system to the Premium Package maximizes the most out of your solar hot water system. It includes an upgraded heat transfer appliance which allows you to see how well the system is performing, as well as to make adjustments and change settings. Also included is a Wi-Fi hub allowing you to access your system remotely from any computer in your home.

For those who simply want the finest solar pool heating or spa heating system available today, we would recommend the Heliodyne Gobi liquid flat plate collector system. The skylight looks of the attractively styled Gobi collectors, with bronze anodized frame and anti-glare glass cover, grace any home and easily adapt to any roof style. The highly efficient Heliodyne Gobi solar collectors feature a state-of-the-art black chrome heat absorber plate housed in an exceptionally sturdy heavier gauge bronze-anodized aluminum extrusion, with a built-in mounting flange around the entire perimeter. The Heliodyne mounting clamps mount to this perimeter flange making for a very secure quick installation. (Rated for wind loads over 100 mph) The Heliodyne Gobi solar pool heating system is ideal for heating indoor and outdoor residential and commercial swimming pools in the southern California dessert climate. The Heliodyne Gobi Collector is rated the highest in energy absorption of any liquid flat plate collector, do to the higher temperatures copper piping is required. Solar-Tec Systems offer custom Heliodyne Gobi solar pool heating and spa heating system installations in Southern California.  

 

Description and Operation

This liquid flat plate collector is designed to absorb solar radiation. The solar radiation is converted into heat on the inner all-copper absorber. The copper tubes attached to the absorber contain a liquid, either water or a water antifreeze mix, which transports the heat to storage, either a solar tank or a water heater. This process continues until the tank is hot for evening and morning use whenever enough sun is available. The Gobi collector features an attractive and permanent frame that is designed for good looks as well as weather resistance in both very hot and cold regions. Because of its special absorber coating, the Gobi operates efficiently also in the winter for year-round hot water production.

 Heliodyne Helio-Pak Closed Loop Solar Hot Water System

  • Freeze Protected for Year-round in Any Climate
  • These systems are the most proven, versatile and durable, protecting the collectors from freezing and hard water deposits. The collectors are filled with a special non-toxic high temperature antifreeze. The transfer of heat occurs inside a heat exchanger attached to the tank. The operation is both simple and safe and the system is protected against overheating and boil out.
    Because the freeze protection does not depend on the draining of collectors, the installation is more versatile: collectors can be mounted above or below the tank, and without the collectors or lines having to slope.
  • These modular systems have a long history of trouble-free operation on homes, National and State Parks, campgrounds, fire stations, office buildings, dormitories, Navy housing, etc. and have proven themselves all across the U.S. and abroad, in the deserts, ocean fronts, and high mountains.
     

Solar Hot Water Systems Long-Term Benefits

Solar water heaters offer long-term benefits that go beyond simple economics. In addition to having free hot water after the system has paid for itself in reduced utility bills, you and your family will be cushioned from future fuel shortages and price increases. You will also be doing your part to reduce this country's dependence on foreign oil. The National Remodelers Association reports that adding a solar water heater to an existing home raises the resale value of the home by the entire cost of the system.

Environmental Benefits

Solar water heaters do not pollute. By investing in one, you will be avoiding carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and the other air pollution and wastes created when your utility generates power or you burn fuel to heat your household water. When a solar water heater replaces an electric water heater, the energy displaced over 20 years represents more than 50 tons of avoided carbon dioxide emissions alone. Carbon dioxide traps heat in the upper atmosphere, thus contributing to the "greenhouse effect." 

A Bright Future

 A solar water heater is a long-term investment that will save you money and energy for many years. Like other renewable energy systems, solar water heaters minimize the environmental effects of enjoying a comfortable, modern lifestyle. In addition, they provide insurance against energy price increases, help reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and are investments in everyone's future.
