Solar Collector
A solar collector is a device that captures sunlight and converts it into heat, primarily for heating water or air. It typically consists of a flat or evacuated tube panel with a dark surface that absorbs sunlight efficiently. As sunlight hits the collector, it heats a fluid—usually water or a special antifreeze mixture—that circulates through the system, transferring heat to storage tanks or heating systems. Solar collectors are a sustainable, cost-effective way to harness renewable energy, reducing reliance on conventional fuels and lowering energy bills while providing an eco-friendly alternative for heating needs.
