Solar Hot Water Heat Exchangers
Solar Hot Water Heat Exchangers For Every System Size, Design & Application
External heat exchangers are the key to retrofitting an existing hot water, radiant space or pool heating system effectively. To have an efficient solar system it is essential that you have a properly sized and fitted heat exchanger. That's why SunMaxx offers one of the largest varieties of heat exchangers for any application. Our product line includes brazed plate heat exchangers for standard applications, shell-and-tube heat exchangers for pool heating, air-to-water heat exchangers for forced hot air heating, and the innovative butler wand, actually bringing the external heat exchanger inside the hot water tank.
