Apricus Solar Water Heating
Save up to 90% on your water heating bills

Buying an Apricus solar hot water system is the single most energy saving action that a household can undertake. Using the sun`s energy to heat water can reduce an average household`s hot water bills by between 60 to 80% - a saving of around $300 to $500 each year.

Not only will a solar water heater save you money, it represents a significant reduction of fossil fuel energy use. Hot water heaters typically make up 35% to %50 of a household energy bill.
Solar Hot Water rebates are also available from the Federal Govt., called Renewable Energy Certifivates. The amount received depends on the type of Apricus System purchased and can range from $500 to over $1000.

How does it work:
Apricus solar hot water systems consist of evacuated glass tubes and highly efficient heat transfer technology.
The tubes consist of 2 layers of toughened glass with a vacuum between these 2 layers. This evacuated layer in the tubes acts much like a Thermos® flask retaining about 97% of the energy absorbed by the sun. This helps increase the efficiency of the collector and also from the effects of cold air.
