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.
