Every year, Philadelphia is host to millions of business travelers, individuals, couples, and families who come to sample our city's unique blend of history and progress. The City of Philadelphia is the largest city in Pennsylvania and the sixth most populous city in the United States. Philadelphia has many sustainable initiatives in progress such as GreenPlan Philadelphia, which is a planning project to help provide a long-term, sustainable roadmap for using, acquiring, developing, funding, and managing open space in our city’s neighborhoods.
With the cost of fuel and electricity rising rapidly from already high levels, affordable renewable alternatives are poised to make a big impact. SunMaxx Solar has several solar hot water products which are well suited to climates such as Philidelphia's, including the SunMaxx TS20 and the SunMaxx TS30. These thermosyphon systems require no pumps or electronics to operate. Simply install one for your home, facing the sun, to reduce your dependance on fossil fuels while enjoying free hot water.

Operational Basics of a Solar Thermosyphon System:
Through the process of natural convection, hot water rises and cold water sinks. This process is at work in the operation of a Thermosyphon System. Cold water sinks from the storage tank at the top of the unit into the evacuated tubes. In the tubes, the cold water is heated, rising back up into the storage tank as it increases in temperature. Throughout the day, all of the cold water within the Thermpsyphon System will be heated in this way.

To learn more and sign up for Silicon Solar Seminars, use the following links:
Silicon Solar offers a number of seminars throughout the year to assist homeowners, small business owners, and renewable energy dealers and installers in learning basic and advanced concepts and techniques for Solar Electric (PV) Systems, Solar Thermal (Hot Water and Hot Air) Systems and Wind Energy Systems.
These seminars and workshops are designed to help newcomers to the renewable energy field gain a basic or even advanced understanding of the different renewable energy options that are available and how these different systems can be applied at home or around the office to save hundreds or thousands of dollars a year in energy costs. These seminars are also a great way for renewable energy dealers and installers to stay up to date on the latest renewable energy equipment, news, industry trends and sales techniques.
Silicon Solar Seminars are great for anyone interested in renewable energy, regardless of their knowledge level going in to the workshop. Even those who have only heard the words solar energy, wind energy, or solar hot water will leave our seminars with an understanding of how renewable energy will help them save money, how these same systems can help save the environment, and what renewable energy options are available and affordable on any budget.
