Every year Builder Magazine features thousands of new,
fresh, different products for the residential building industry. At the end of
each year, editors tally reader responses to determine which published items
attracted the most interest. Capturing the third spot on Builder Readers 10 Favorite Products of 08 is the Phoenix
Solar Water Heater from Heat Transfer,
a designer and manufacturer of advanced heating and hot water systems.
According to
the companys press release, the Phoenix Solar is the first solar water heater
to combine domestic hot-water storage with a 97%-efficient, gas-fired backup in
one unit, and meets the hot-water demands of residential and commercial solar
thermal systems.
The dual capability of the Phoenix unit is a major attraction to home
and building owners and managers looking to cut energy consumption, says Heat
Transfer chief executive officer Dave Davis. It not only transfers all the
energy the sun provides, but it also includes an ultra-high-efficiency backup
when the suns not enough.
