ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for collecting solar energy, the apparatus including a parabola shaped reflector around a pipe enclosed in a glass tube, the pipe being located at the focal point of the parabola shaped reflector, so that sunlight rays are reflected thereagainst, so to concentrate their heat thereagainst, the pipe extending outwardly of opposite ends of the reflector, so that water passing through the pipe is thus heated for practical uses, and the reflector being rotatable, so to follow the path of the sun, in order to obtain maximum efficiency therefrom.
