Standard and Rating for Solar Thermal Equipment and Systems
You must have heard about ratings and standards for different renewable energy products especially when purchasing appliances such as central heating and air systems, water heaters etc. ENERGY STAR is a very well known program in the U.S. to help everyone save money and protect the climate. So consider Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) when you decide to install solar hot water system or solar thermal equipment for your home or business. The organization SRCC provides rating and certification for different solar energy equipment like collector certification and heating system certification.

For an SRCC certified product, you can see the product rating for operating guidelines, product testing, and product standards. The purpose of this program was to test and rate the efficiency of the solar thermal equipment, by their manufacturers at the time of the production. This rating system guides homeowners about the efficiency and reliability of different types of solar thermal equipment, helping them to select an ideal solar energy system for their home. The rating system for solar thermal equipment has been working since 1980, trusted by the government of the United States for their reliable product information.

Similar to ENERGY STAR program, the SRCC rating program helps homeowners to make a decision about purchasing, giving them valuable information about the solar energy products. You can use solar rating system to evaluate different solar thermal products, comparing them side by side and selecting the one, which best suits for your home needs. The nationwide acknowledged, SRCC rating and certification program is a standard method for the comparison of solar thermal products.

A variety of collectors and solar thermal systems have been rated, receiving the SRCC seal. There are about 1,000 collectors and 2,000 solar thermal systems available in the market that are certified and rated by the SRCC. We at Smith Sustainable Design offer SRCC rated equipment such as collectors and solar thermal systems for your home. You can contact us for more information about the understanding and practical use of SRCC rating program.
