| General |
| Entech Solar has been an industry leader in solar optics technology for over 25 years. |
Solar optics knowledge transfers to daylighting, creating a new, groundbreaking technology. |
| Daylight is a truly sustainable resource. |
Zero cost for light, zero energy consumption, zero carbon footprint, zero resource depletion, can displace the use of artificial lighting. |
| Daylight improves performance in schools, increases retail sales, and improves worker productivity. |
Studies confirm that adding daylight to your building can improve your organization's performance. |
| Solar Collimator™ |
| The patented Solar Collimator reduces the number of times light reflects down the tube. |
With every reflection, light energy is lost. Fewer reflections mean that more of the harvested sunlight is delivered to the building interior. The longer the tube, the greater the impact! |
| The Solar Collimator reduces the angle of light as it is delivered to the building interior. |
Daylight delivered to the building interior at lower angles reduces glare, bright spots, and shadows. |
| The Solar Collimator reduces the angle of light coming in from any angle. |
Low level morning or late afternoon light as well as high angle mid-day light are all delivered consistently, resulting in more even daylighting. |
| Rooftop Dome |
| Wedge design, 35 degree angle. |
Tilt angle optimized for solar capture. |
| Internal reflector. |
Harvests low angle sunlight in the early morning and late evening hours. |
| UV acrylic. |
Blocks nearly all UV radiation. |
| Integral condensation drip edge. |
Prevents condensation from building up. |
| Roof Curb |
| 18 gauge aluminum construction with 20 gauge aluminum liner with continuous welded corners. |
Durable, leak proof design is appropriate for commercial applications. |
| Integral, factory-installed rigid fiberglass insulation. |
Improves thermal performance and reduces condensation. |
| Available for roof pitches from 0/12 to 12/12. |
Curb options available for nearly every roof. |
| Curbs available for order separately. |
Curbs can be procured and delivered earlier in the project, improving scheduling and lowering project costs. |
| Curb Sleeve |
| Available in 18”, 24”, 30” and 36” lengths. |
Options to accommodate various roof pitches and a variety of roofing and insulation thicknesses, as well as trusses and support systems underneath the curb. |
| Tube Assembly |
| Button Punch Snap lock and “S and Drive” assembly. |
Allows flat pallet shipment, reducing shipping, handling and storage costs. Well-known and proven assembly technique for ductwork makes installation easy. |
| Extensions |
| Extensions available in 24” and 48” lengths. |
Extensions allow the system to accommodate any distance required from roof to ceiling. Extensions can be added as needed to create the appropriate length. |
| Expansion Section |
| Expansion section telescopes with the extension sections. |
Provides up to 24” of telescoping extension with no cutting required, accommodating variations in roof-to-ceiling distances (Longer distances require extensions). |
| Support Section |
| Support section with collar. |
Provides for attaching support wires, carrying the weight of the system and reduces movement. |
| Diffuser Assembly |
| Versions available for T-grid and sheetrock ceilings and open-air. |
Options for nearly all applications, from office environments to warehouse spaces to retail shopping areas. |
| 24” x 24” Room Diffuser. |
Standard size for T-Grid ceilings, compatible with most lighting plans. |
| Radial option. |
Contemporary, unique and beautiful appearance. Best for applications requiring minimal diffusion and maximum focus of daylight. |
| Pattern option. |
Modern and distinctive appearance. Best for applications requiring balance between diffusion and focused light. |
| Diamond option. |
Appearance blends with most conventional lighting troffers. Best for applications requiring diffused light. |
