Welcome to Solar Heat Exchange Manufacturing (SHEM). We have developed an entire range of solar thermal solutions for every imaginable application. In our website you’ll find solutions for many solar thermal needs, from domestic hot water to industrial or commercial process heating.

The SHEM Difference Is Elemental. At the heart of every SHEM tank and collector system is a massive copper heat exchanger. Copper is the elemental difference between SHEM systems and that of our competitors. Simply put, copper remains the best choice for heat exchange systems, and SHEM uses a lot of copper in each system! We invite you to compare a SHEM system with that of any competitor. The more you know, the more you’ll feel confident that SHEM systems represent the best choice in solar thermal systems.

BREAKING NEWS: SHEM is opening a distribution, manufacturing and administrative center in northern California. In September, SHEM will be hosting a conference on Commercial Solar Thermal in Redding, CA. Speakers will focus on the various aspects of sizing, bidding, installing and maintaining commercial solar thermal systems.

See the Data. SHEM sells Sun Reports® web-based monitoring systems. Easy-to-install and easy-to-use, Sun Report monitoring enables thermal systems to be tuned for maximum effectiveness.

We’ve attached a monitoring system to an 80-E drainback system paired with a single 4’ x 10’ Aurora collector at SHEM’s factory in Perry, KS. That system discharges approximately 100 gallons of 110 degree F water per day.
