Solar thermal collector

A solar thermal collector is a device that helps us to collect and convert the sun's energy into useful heat. It has a metal plate that looks like a large box and is covered by a glass or plastic cover. The metal plate absorbs the sunlight and converts it into heat. This heat is then used to either heat up water in a hot water tank, provide heat in a home or power something like a air conditioner or refrigerator. The solar thermal collector is a great way to save energy and money.
