100% Hot Water, 365 Days a Year.
Harvests energy from the air, rain, and
wind—guaranteed to work in the Irish climate.
Thermodynamic Solar Panels are perfect for Ireland for one simple reason. A single thermodynamic solar panel application can offer a family of 6 people 100% of its hot water every single day of the year.
Normally located on the roof (but can also be wall mounted), the thermodynamic solar panel uses all Irish weather conditions to vaporise a very cold inert refrigerant gas that flows through the panel. Once the gas in the Thermodynamic Solar Panel vaporises, it passes down to a very small compressor located near your water cylinder. The gas will vaporise and create heat which then transfers to your hot water via a heat exchanger.
Only one small panel normally required.
Reliable Hot Water every day of the year.
Designed specifically for the Irish Climate.
Panel can be located South, East, or West Facing.
Cheaper Overall Running Costs than other systems.
An aluminum panel sits on your roof or wall. It circulates a refrigerant liquid at -20°C. Because the liquid is so cold, it rapidly absorbs heat from the surrounding air (even on freezing days), causing the liquid to boil into a gas.
This heated gas travels down to the Thermodynamic Block unit. The compressor squeezes the gas, raising its pressure and temperature significantly—just like a reverse fridge mechanism.
The now hot gas flows through a coil attached to your water cylinder. It releases its heat into your water, cooling back down into a liquid, ready to return to the panel and restart the cycle.
