SolarTide
SolarTide SHA series of Hot Air solar collectors are suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
SolarTide SHA Hot Air Solar Collector is a revolutionary product which use the solar thermal energy for central heating, drying for agricultural products and foodstuffs, Industrial heating, school heating, house heating, etc. For both residential and commercial applications The design of the Hot Air Solar Collector is the first type in the World which produce hot air instead of normal hot water, with the following key features:
● No water or liquid inside, no freeze, can work in cold area
● Solar thermal energy directly change into hot air, heat efficiency up to 80%
● 1-2 Years investment back with small initial pay
● Extremely reliable design, endure high temp, no overheat
● Hot air with high temp. max to 200 C degrees
● Simple structure, less maintaining
● High wind load strength and High snow load strength
● Easy plug-in installation

Construction
The SHA solar collector is comprised of Three main parts:
● Solar Collector
Absorbs solar energy and converts it to usable heat. Vacuum between the two glass layers insulates against heat loss. Distributing pipes are installed inside the vacuum glass tubes, to distribute the cold air into each glass tubes averagely, and been fully heated into hot air.
● Air Blower
90W special air blower for SHA solar collector which can produce hot air volume at 200m3/h.
● Smart controller
Extremely reliable designed controller can sense the air temp outside and inside the room, and control the hot air temp from 20-200C degrees. And automatically start and stop the system by setting.
