Evacuated Tube & Heat Pipe Solar Collectors
Four-Season Efficiency
GreenLand Systems solar collectors will efficiently deliver hot water all year round, even in winter and in cold & overcast weather, when most other solar collectors cannot deliver any heat at all.
GreenLand Systems solar collectors will out-perform most solar collectors in all climatic conditions. Superior performance in unfavourable operating conditions, of cold ambient air temperature and low solar intensity, significantly sets GreenLand Systems solar collectors apart from most other solar collectors on the market.
Dry Heat Interface (DHI) Advantages
- Extremely easy installation of evacuated tube.
- No blockages through stone build up.
- Excellent heat transfer.
- Allows optimum tube orientation.
- Minimum maintenance.
- No leakages.

GreenLand Systems Advantages
- GreenLand solar evacuated tubes are frost resistant.
- GreenLand solar evacuated tubes have the ability to withstand high fluid pressure.
- Have the highest efficiency in all climatic conditions, any time of the year.
- Due to the "dry heat interface" and large manifold cross-section area, high mineral & calcium content in the water does not present a problem.
- Low collector fluid pressure drop of only 2.2kPa at 300 litres per hour flow rate.
- Extremely easy to assemble, install and service.
- GreenLand solar collectors have very low overall thermal inertia. They will increase their fluid temperature rapidly, and are therefore able to convert to useful heat even very short periods of sunshine.
- Evacuated (vacuum) tubes can be independently rotated for optimum solar incidence angle.
