| Next Generation Energy has over 26 years of experience implementing solar thermal energy. Incorporating the latest technology, NGE products offer the most efficient solutions possible. The NGE TU series, flat plate collectors, and pool panels are excellent choices for residential or commercial scale water heating for pools, spas and radiant heating applications. Other solar thermal application to be considered are Hot Air Panels. They are an excellent way to heat small areas in a building, for example: an addition, green house, warehouse or barn. These panels are completely self-contained heating units that integrate small PV modules to power a fan which circulates air heated by the collector. No electrical connections are required. |

Ideal for new construction and remodeling alike, with its low profile,
light weight, and rapid response, Thermal Track delivers a genuine
advance in the best heating system you can buy … hydronic radiant
heat. Non-structural Thermal Track is designed specifically for
subfloor applications. Thermal Track is constructed of a dense -100%
recycled composite board covered with aluminum that spreads the
heat evenly and quickly. Thermal Track heats rapidly and is easy
to control with setback thermostats for maximum energy efficiency.
It contains just enough thermal mass to be effective, but not so
much that it’s difficult to control. No other product combines the
performance, ease of installation, and cost-effectiveness.

Construction Friendly-
Low profile and light weight for easy installation.
Cost
Friendly-
Thermal Track avoids joist upsizing,double plating, and
hardwood nailing strips associated with gypsum-based
concrete radiant heating systems.
Flooring Friendly-
Most flooring surfaces can be easily installed over Thermal
Track with standard methods and tools
Planet
Friendly-
Thermal Track employs fully recyclable wood and a recyclable
aluminum alloy. It is made of recovered and recycled
materials. |
