Product catalog summary
Features & Advantages
  • Utilizes a high-performing, cost-effective solar collector for heating ventilation air.
  • Collector efficiency can reach up to 75%.
  • Modular rooftop units are easy to install and optimized for site conditions.
  • System can be internally ballasted or fastened, allowing for quick assembly and integration into existing air intake systems.
  • Each unit measures 6’ by 4’ and produces 1000 watts of thermal energy.
  • A typical array of 48 feet (8 units) delivers up to 2000 cfm of heated ventilation air and 8kW of heating.
  • Significant reduction in CO2 emissions.
SolarDuctTM System Overview

The SolarDuctTM system is derived from the SolarWall® technology, designed specifically for rooftop applications where wall-mounted systems are not feasible. It is a solar heating system that pre-heats ventilation air before it enters air handling units, using an all-metal collector panel suitable for commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities. The system is optimized for sun orientation and proximity to rooftop air handling units, with modular arrays sized according to building energy requirements.

Modular Rooftop Air Heating System
  • Enhances PV system return on investment by generating both electricity and heat energy.
  • Achieves total operating efficiency above 50%.
  • Cools PV cells to mitigate heat-related output drops.
  • Compatible with any PV module configuration.
  • SolarWall panels serve as the racking system for PV modules, angled for optimal solar gain.
  • Offsets heating and electricity costs, significantly reducing CO2 emissions.
SolarDuctTM PV/T System

The SolarDuctTM product can be integrated into PV/thermal cogeneration systems. The system draws heat away from PV modules, enhancing electrical efficiency by up to 10%, and ducts this heat into the building’s HVAC system to offset heating loads.
