SunEarth CopperHeart CP-40 Solar Water Heater

Part Number: CP-40 | Nominal 40-Gallon Integral Collector Storage System

The SunEarth CopperHeart CP-40 combines solar heat collection and water storage in one passive integral collector storage (ICS) unit. Normal solar operation requires no circulation pump or electronic controller.

Use it as a solar preheater ahead of a compatible gas or electric water heater. In suitable non-freezing climates, it can also serve as a primary water heater. System sizing, backup heating, and installation must suit local conditions.

Product Highlights

  • Integrated collection and storage: A passive approach to solar water heating.
  • Copper storage cylinders: Collect heat and hold water within the unit.
  • SOLKOTE® coating: Moderately selective absorber finish.
  • Outdoor construction: Tempered glass, an anodized aluminum casing, and insulated backing.
