THERMAL SOLAR PANELS HEAT UP YOUR WATER WITH ENERGY FROM THE SUN, RESULTING IN BIG SAVINGS ON YOUR GAS AND/OR ELECTRICITY BILLS FOR HEATING YOUR WATER.

Solar collectors, as thermal solar panels also are called, often give a better and faster return on investment than solar cells. Especially in Spain, where we have a lot of sun, it makes a lot of sense to heat your water with solar cells, both when it comes to your utility water and heating your home or pool if you have one.

There are two types of solar panels: flat solar panels, which are the most proven and economical, and tube solar panels, which are a more advanced solar panel with a higher establishment price, but which provide more energy, especially during cold weather periods.

The properties of the different solar panels are as follows:

Flat panel thermic solar panels

From the outside, the flat-panel solar panel looks like a glass plate in a frame. The glass covers a metal absorber plate. This plate absorbs the sun’s warm rays. This solar panel is usually a lot cheaper than the more modern pipe version. On the other hand, this panel usually also supplies less energy when conditions are difficult, e.g. in low sun or when it is very cold.

Pipe panel thermic solar panels

This solar panel is a more modern construction, where the absorbers are placed in airless glass tubes. These pipes can easily be replaced, so maintenance is usually just as simple and economical as with the flat panel system. The price of good quality pipe collectors is at the higher end of the scale, but you will get a really high-quality solar panel which performs better and lasts longer.
