Cirrex Solar Water Heating Systems

Cirrex Solar Water Heating SystemsCirrex Solar - Runs On The SunCirrex is more than just a solar water heater - it’s the ultimate solarthermal solution. High efficiency ratings, long life and reduced carbonemissions are just a few things that make it an irresistible choice forenvironmentally conscious homeowners. Utility costs for water heatingbeing reduced up to 70% make Cirrex a wise choice for everyone.The time has never been better to invest in renewable energy.Demonstrate your own green initiative with Cirrex Solar.THE CIRREX ADVANTAGE: 16 solar water heating systems - one, two or threecollector configurations - collectors can be addedfor larger systems. ENERGY STAR qualified All solar water heating systems are SRCC certifiedOG-300. Proudly partnered with Chromagen to providetop-of-the-line solar thermal collectors. All solar thermal collectors are SRCC certifiedOG-100. Standard and Deluxe solar system packages areavailable. All system packages include integrated solar pumpstations. 65, 80 & 120-gallon direct and indirect solarbooster tanks with 4500 watt back-up heatingelements. Single wall and double wall heat exchangersystems. Solar Energy Factor (SEF) ratings up to 10.1. Provides up to 70% of the energy needed forwater heating directly from the sun. Can produce the same amount of energy asphoto-voltaic solar collectors at 1/8th of the cost. Eligible for Federal Tax Credit - 30% of the totalinstalled cost (no cap). May also be eligible forlocal and utility company rebates, see our rebatelocator at www.hotwater.com. Solar thermal collectors and solar pump stationscan be purchased individually or in bulk. 4-Year extended solar tank and 3-year extendedpump station warranty available. Full line of solar accessories including SolarPathfinder site analysis unit and PathfinderAssistant Software, contractor installation kits,collector tilt kits and roof mounting kits forcomposite, flat, tile, split seam and corrugatedmetal roof installations.

Living Green, Saving GreenIf you’ve been looking for a way to live a “greener”lifestyle, installing a Cirrex solar water heating systemin your home is a great way to start. Consider the facts:water heating accounts for 14% to 25% of the totalenergy consumed in a home. They are second only to airconditioning and heating systems in household energyconsumption. With Solar Energy Factor (SEF) ratingsup to 10.1, a Cirrex solar water heating system canprovide up to 70% of the energy needed for heatingwater directly from the sun. Cirrex systems are OG300 certified by the Solar Rating and CertificationCorporation (SRCC), which means they are eligible formany state, local and utility rebate programs in additionto Federal tax credits. Cirrex has a great impact on theenvironment and your wallet!How Do Cirrex Systems Work?Cirrex Solar Water Heater Systems utilize energy fromthe sun to provide hot water. System componentsinclude: ① solar thermal collectors mounted on a southfacing roof, ② solar loop piping, ③ an integrated solarpump station, ④ a solar loop expansion tank, ⑤ a solarbooster tank and ⑥ a heat exchanger. The sun heats atransfer fluid flowing through the solar collectors. Theheat transfer fluid is a mixture of distilled water andnon-toxic propylene glycol to prevent freezing in thewinter. The integrated pump station circulates the heattransfer fluid through the solar loop piping to a heatexchanger where the heat energy is transferred to thewater inside a solar booster tank.123456

All Solar Collectors Are Not Created EqualBacked by over 40 years of expertise Chromagen has fine-tuned the design and manufacture of solarcollectors to an art. Collectors are assembled using the highest quality materials and advanced techniques,which result in highly efficient, durable products you can depend on for years to come. Optimal heat absorption and efficiency. Riser tubes are laser welded to the absorber plate which ensures optimum heattransfer and permanent bond. Three insulation layers provide a cumulativethermal resistance value of R-8.451627389101. Low-iron patterned and tempered glazingprovides superior strength, anti-glare surfaceand 91% solar transmittance.2. Aluminum absorber plate with spectrallyselective black coating provides more than 90%solar absorption and less than 40% IR emissionfor high performance even in cooler climates.3. Rugged nylon glass fiber moldings on all fourcorners protect collectors and adjacent propertyfrom damage during transport and installation.4. 1-1/8 inch outside diameter (O.D.) copper sweatinlet/outlet connections.5. Glass wool insulation layer6. Black anodized extruded aluminum casing interlocking construction assembly - requires nofasteners that loosen over time and allow moistureinfiltration.7. Integrated aluminum foil insulation barrier.8. Injected rigid Polyurethane foam insulation layer.9. Durable black Polypropylene backsheet - resistspunctures during transport and installation, resistscorrosion for the life of the collectors.10. Type M copper risers 5/8” and manifolds 1-1/8” arebrazed together in a parallel tube configuration- ensuring optimal flow and a low pressure drop.Collectors may be installed in portrait or landscapeorientation.

Integrated Solar Pump StationsAll-in-one integrated, insulated assembly features:Double Wall Pump Station Clean professional looking installation.Standard Pump Station Saves time and money. Programmable electronic solar system controlwith advanced diagnostics and LCD display. Precise flow control - multipe speeds pumps, flowcontrol valves and variable speed controls. Flow meter, temperature and pressure gauges. Solar loop pressure relief valve. Isolation valves, fill and drain valves, check valvesand an air stripper. Standard pump stations are used with indirectsolar booster tanks that have factory installedinternal single wall coil-type heat exchangers. Double wall pump stations are equipped withplate-type stainless steel heat exchangers (doublewall) and two circulation pumps; one for potablewater and one for the heat transfer fluid in thesolar loop. They are used with direct solar boostertanks.Solar System Packages and Solar Booster TanksStandard and Deluxe solar system packages are available, see the comparison table below. Use our Solar Sizing Guideto determine the number of solar collectors and solar booster tank needed. Order a system package that meets thesizing needs making sure double wall heat exchanger systems are ordered when required by local building codes.Order the required solar booster tank separately to complete the system.Visit www.hotwater.com for more information including; Specification Sheets, Solar Sizing Guide with site analysisinstructions, Online Rebate Locator, Installation Videos and Instruction Manuals.INTEGRATED CIRREX SYSTEMS INCLUDE:Deluxe vs Standard - Included System ComponentsSystem Component DescriptionStandardDeluxeSolar Collector(s)XXIntegrated Solar Pump Station With Advanced Programmable Digital LCD ControllerXXSolar Loop Expansion Tank (Includes Bracket/Stainless Steel Flex Pipe)XXSolar Loop Pressure Relief ValveXXThermostatic Mixing ValveXXPropylene Glycol (DOWFROST ) 5-GallonsXXSolar Loop Air VentXXTemperature Sensors (2) - Tank & Collector OutletXXCollector Spanner Mounting Hardware Kit (Stainless Steel/Aluminum)XXRoof Flashing for solar loop piping supply line (1 - copper)XRoof Flashing for solar loop piping return line and sensor wire (1 - copper)XRoof Flashing Kit (Shingle Roof Mounting Kit) - 4 Per/Collector (iodized aluminum)XTemperature Sensor Control Wire 75' RollXCollector Copper Sweat Fittings KitXFlexible Pipe Insulation (UV Resistant/300 F) 6' x 1/2" tube (1)XFlexible Pipe Insulation (UV Resistant/300 F) 6' x 1" tube (1)XTape, Stretch & SealXRoof & Flashing SealantX
