CORONA

CORONA Solar Collectors are the most technologically advanced collectors on the market today. CORONA features the highest quality materials & state-of-the-art engineering to provide maximum efficiency & durability you can depend on for years to come.

CORONA collectors are environmentally responsible, non-polluting and reliable in any environment. CORONA panels are an important element of any hot water system, producing dependable results under any weather conditions.

DIRECT/OPEN

A direct (or open) system features collectors on the roof and a storage tank somewhere below, usually a garage or utility room. A pump is used to circulate the water from the tank to the collectors and back again. The sun’s heat is transferred directly to the water which is circulating through the tank and collector. The Solene direct system offers a PV option to power the pump instead of electricity.

INDIRECT/CLOSED

Indirect (or closed loop) systems are more common in northern climates or where freezing weather is likely. Here the tank water is heated indirectly by a heat exchanger. An FDA-approved heat exchange solution is circulated through the collector, and the heat exchanger transfers the heat from the solution to the water in the tank.

DRAINBACK

Drainback systems offer fail-safe freeze protection by removing all water from the collectors and piping when the system is not collecting heat. Each time the pump shuts off, water in the collectors and exposed piping drains into the insulated reservoir tank. Drainback systems circulate fluid-transfer solution through the collectors, then through a heat exchanger where the heat is transferred to the potable water in the solar tank.
