With Solpal it is easier than ever to harness the suns energy to generate hot water. Solpal is a solar water heater that feeds into your existing hot water system. It ties into your water supply line and preheats the water before it enters your existing water heater. The method is simple, yet ingenious: Water is heated and stored within the solar collector, eliminating the need for circulation pumps and an external power supply.</p>
