Hello
I'm posting just to tell everyone about an exciting new Solar Thermal Hot Water Heater called.
The heater is different from anything else on the market. The heater has many advantages over traditional solar water heating systems. The RD is far more affordable than other comparable sized solar thermal units. It eliminates any roof penetrations saving time and money if costly roof repairs ever need to be done. Using the Earth as added insulation, the water tank stays warmer longer, and saves valuable space inside your home. The Ground Mounting technology allows you to find a great location for your RD even if your roof isn't ideal for traditional flat solar thermal panels. The RD can usually be installed in one day allowing you to have more time for what really matters. Other solar thermal hot water systems are designed to mount on your home's southern roof face, which for many can be a problem. This approach adds a lot of weight to your home and damaging holes in your roof.
The best part is it's half the cost of similar size and quality solar thermal hot water systems, and with the 30% federal tax credit; It should pay itself off long before the 10 year warranty runs out.
We'd love to hear what you think !! Thanks for Reading ! This is an American Made Product !

I seem to recall seeing this same equipment posted here some months back. Looks nice (?), probably noty fit for purpose and not cost effective.

It actually opens up a whole new can of high temperature worms.

Any solar panels can be ground mounted so that so called benefit is nothing.

The outside water tank is of no benefit.

It looks like a concentrator?

How's it work in a power failure in a cold ice storm, will the collector freeze up without the pump, or will passive thermosiphon keep it from freezing ?

Let's see a data sheet, some specs. and a certification from somewhere. Otherwise, its a waste of time.

Nothing but sales blather there that I found.
