Something New Under the Sun…introducing Apricus!
Lumen is proud to introduce our newest supply partner – Apricus, a leading producer of solar hot water collectors. Apricus collectors utilize evacuated tube technology – an attractive, durable, and efficient technology that makes use of the superior insulating properties of vacuums. The result? You’ll get more hot water for your money, particularly under windy and variable temperature conditions.
Apricus was featured in the New Products section of October’s Building Industry Hawaii Magazine. Read it here!
