EcoSolar Advantages
  • EcoSolarAccredited by Solar Industries Association.
  • The latest industry leading, high efficiency technology at an affordable price.
  • EcoSolar’s superior design maximises the savings on power costs.
  • Reduction of non-renewable energy sources and greenhouse gas emissions helps to reduce the impact on the environment.
  • During the summer months the water will be heated by solar energy, depending on the amount of sunshine hours and hot water usage. The electrical system will heat the water on cloudy days when there is minimal solar energy available and during periods of high hot water usage.

HJ Cooper Cylinders
  • HJ Cooper Cylinder10 year manufacturer’s warranty
  • The cylinders meet the highest safety and quality standards, and are certified to the prestigious NZ4602 standard
  • We install a mains pressure 300 litre stainless steel cylinder. The 250 litre and 180 litre cylinders are used for smaller households.
  • H J Cooper Cylinders have solar-ready connections and highly efficient insulation.
  • The cylinder is fitted inside the ceiling cavity or a suitable cupboard
  • High-grade, high-strength Duplex corrosion resistant stainless steel
  • All units are 100% pressure tested
  • No anode to maintain
  • Full immersion style thermostat gives highly accurate temperature control
  • Corrosion resistant alloy-sheathed heating element
 
SolaStat-Plus Controller
  • SolaStat-Plus ControllerThe SolaStat-Plus Controller saves power
  • Large soft green digital LED display
  • 3 sensors for maximum functionality and efficient control
  • The SolaStat-Plus Controller measures the water temperature at three different places in the system and turns on the Wilo circulator at the optimum time. The Wilo circulator then moves the warmed water from the solar collectors into the hot water cylinder.
 
EcoSolar Collectors
  • EcoSolar CollectorsFive year manufacturer’s warranty
  • The collectors are tested and approved to Australian and New Zealand Standards.
  • The controllers offer superior performance with proven reliability, ensuring maximum savings for years to come.
  • Non corrosive copper components
  • Aluminium foil coated mineral wool insulation to protect the polyurethane insulation and to reduce heat loss from the solar collectors.
  • Selective coated copper absorber sheet ultrasonically welded to copper riser pipes to optimise collector efficiency
  • Brass outlets brazed to copper header pipes and manifolds
  • Embossed aluminium protective backsheet
  • Tempered low-iron security glass for increased collector performance
  • Powder coated extruded aluminium housing
  • UV resistant 100% EPDM rubber seals and gaskets
  • Ventilation Holes
  • M8 threaded inserts for easy mounting onto the roof and collector frame.
  • Our standard EcoSolar system comes with two collectors.
  • A single collector is used for smaller households.
 
House Design

The solar panels are fitted on a north facing roof with a minimum roof pitch of 20 degrees. The greater the pitch, the greater the performance. If the roof pitch is insufficient, it may be possible to install a raised roof frame.
