    What Is the eXeL Hybrid Solar Water Heater?

    The eXeL Hybrid Solar Water Heater uses dedicated solar panels to send low-voltage DC power directly to a smart heating assembly inside the water tank. That means your home can use clean solar energy to heat water without relying on a traditional solar thermal collector system.

    For Ambrose Solar customers, it can be a strong fit for homeowners, builders, and property owners who want a clean-energy appliance that is practical, durable, and easier to maintain.
