Owing to its advantages, brazed plate heat exchangers have become extremely popular in domestic heating applications. Especially in domestic solar heating setups owing to it low cost, low maintenance and high efficiency.
One of the most important factors in determining the viability of a solar heater is its heat transfer efficiency. In simple terms, a good solar heater is one, which is able to transfer maximum amount of heat from the captured sunlight to the inner loop. A brazed plate heat exchanger is ideally suited for this purpose since it occupies much less space, is far more efficient and cost effective than other heat exchangers and is easy to maintain and clean.
Brazed plate heat exchangers in combination with domestic solar panels can be used for:
1. Supplying hot water
2. Heating radiant floors
3. Heating radiant walls
4. Heating water in swimming pools and spas
In all of these applications, solar energy is trapped by a solar panel that transfers the heat to the outer loop. This heat is then collected by a brazed plate heat exchanger where heat is transferred from the outer loop (from the panel) to the inner loop. The heated liquid of the inner loop can now be circulated through a water heater to heat water for domestic supply or passed through radiant walls and/or floors for domestic heating or passed through a swimming pool or spa for heating the water.
Brazed plate heat exchangers can easily handle high temperatures and pressures associated with the latest solar system designs and also keep the domestic water loop in complete isolation with the solar loop. This ensures complete safety of the system as well as long life.

Use of Brazed Plate Heat Exchangers in Hydronic Heating Applications
Looking for an efficient, compact and low cost brazed plate heat exchanger to fit your application? We have the solution!
Brazetek heat exchangers are engineered and manufactured utilizing the latest technological advancements and highest quality materials, and can be used for a variety of applications. From radiant heating and snow melting, to solar and hot water heating – we have the right model to fit your needs.
Technology:
To assure the highest level of performance, stainless steel plates are vacuum brazed together to withstand high pressure and temperature variations. The unique design of the plates allows the brazed plate heat exchanger to operate with turbulent flow, providing the maximum thermal efficiency. Such design helps to keep particles in the liquid in constant suspension and prevents them from settling, creating a self-cleaning effect.
Every unit is pressure tested and leak tested to ensure uninterrupted performance and long life.
Applications:
Radiant Heating Outdoor
Wood Stove Domestic
Hot Water Heating
Snow Melting
Solar Heating
Advantages:
Compact size
High heat transfer efficiency
Quick and easy installation
High corrosion resistance
Self-descaling design
We carry an extensive inventory of various models of brazed plate heat exchangers and in most cases can ship the same or next business day.
