Welcome
Sustainable Products and Treatment Systems, a Puerto Rico company for over 40 years located in Trujillo
Alto, would like to thank you for your purchase of our World Class
Blue-Wave
line of Solar Domestic Hot
Water system. You are installing one of the highest quality, and most efficient Solar water heating
systems. SP Solar Water Heating products are designed specifically to meet the needs of
Puerto Rico’s
tropical climate. The SP Blue Solo 80 and SP Blue Solo 80E systems will provide homeowners with
peace of mind that they will have purchased a high-performance system designed specifically for
residential applications in tropical locations. With its 2.92 m2 overall area, and 2.72m2 of solid surface
blue absorption collector area with a heavily insulated 80 gallon/300 L storage tank the SP Blue Solo 80
exceeds the performance requirements of Energy Star and SRCC certifications for Puerto Rico. The SP
Blue Solo 80 has the option to add a 3.5 kW electric element to the tank if required. If ordered in
advance, please specify the SP Blue Solo 80
E
model. If you have ordered the SP Blue Solo 80, the
electric element can be added to the tank as a retrofit, and the element is an option that must be special
ordered. With an SUEF of 12.03, and Solar Fraction per Puerto Rico Supplementary of 93%, the
electrical element would rarely be needed even during sustained periods of cloud cover.
Making Puerto Rico Sustainable is our goal, and with the purchase of the SP Blue Solo 80, or SP Blue Solo
80 -E option you have made the right choice for your family, and the environment.
