The Schüco Hot Water System

Repower Home offers the Schüco Solar Hot Water System, one of the most widely used systems in the world. Its sleek, highly engineered design provides optimal output in a fully integrated system. Its proven, automated technology is virtually maintenance-free and we guarantee the parts, performance and workmanship for 5 years. The panels have a warranty of 10 years.

Solar Station

We call the solar station the "heart" of the Schüco system. It regulates the flow of the solar fluid - similar to antifreeze - between the collectors and the storage tank. Uniquely engineered by Schüco to be self-contained, the unit has a built-in air separator to gather any airlocks that arise in the system, eliminating the need for air-bleeding on the roof.

Solar Station

  • Self-contained unit—holds pump, valves, meters and gauges
  • 3-speed internal check valve—maximizes pumps operation time
  • Expanded polypropylene insulating casing—protects solar fluid — similar to antifreeze — even in -40° F temperatures

Solar Collector

Capture heat from the sun. Our Schüco solar thermal solution features an award-winning, skylight-like design made of beautiful tempered safety glass, which is highly efficient in trapping radiation to ensure that the maximum amount of heat is transferred to the piping.

Solar Collector

  • Sun Select Absorber—absorbs 95% of radiation traveling through the glass
  • Non-corrosive aluminum mounting system—stands up to wear and weather
  • Compression fittings—create leak-proof connections

Solar Tank

The Schüco storage tank transfers heat from the collectors to your water system. Schüco's preheated tank features an oversized heat exchanger for optimal heat exchanged, and is conveniently available in two sizes of 80 or 105 gallons to meet the needs of your home.

Solar Tank

  • Oversized heat exchanger— ensures excellent heat transfer
  • Preheated and well insulated—helps maintain ideal hot water temperatures
  • Enamel coating—resists corrosion

Solar Controller

The Schüco solar controller detects when the solar fluid - similar to antifreeze - is hotter than the water in the tank and then automatically activates the system. This technology-advanced controller is equipped with an integrated calculator that shows how much energy is generated and at what temperature.

Solar Controller

  • Wall-mount unit—takes up very little space
  • Digital read out and schematic—allows for easy monitoring
  • Temperature sensors—continually keep system in check
