LARGE GLAZED FLAT PLATE SYSTEMS

Glazed flat plate systems are a reliable and stable technology. They have been in continual use for many decades. Recently there have been advances made, particularly in the durability and effectiveness of the insulation as well as collector surface coatings that have increased efficiencies markedly. Ambient Source values the glazed flat panel system for there cost effectiveness, long life and also because it is made of highly recyclable materials.

Ambient Source employs experience and comprehensive computer modeling programs, important in accurate design and performance assessments. Our installation technicians have benefited from industry leading CanSIA training as well as training and support from the manufacturers of the systems we provide.
