Heat Transfer Products (HTP) has appointed solar industry veteran Rod Hyatt to fill the newly created post of solar product manager, with responsibility for marketing HTP’s rapidly expanding line of solar thermal products throughout North America. Hyatt brings 16 years of solar product experience to his new assignment, including the launch of two highly successful start-ups in the field: Sun Hydronics and In Hot Water.

In his new post, Hyatt will place special emphasis on the new solar domestic hot water packages recently unveiled by HTP. When combined with either one or two collector panels and an HTP solar water heater, these turnkey kits include a solar controller, pump station and pre-insulated 50-foot line set, plus all the various parts and components needed to complete the job quickly, reveals the company’s press release.
