Solar home heating
or solar space heating systems are gaining popularity rapidly in the
solar water heating market. They are popular because of their extremely
high efficiency and higher operational temperature, as these systems use
solar evacuated tube collectors. In addition, solar vacuum tubes work
efficiently in low light conditions and even perform at temperatures
reaching minus 35 degrees.
However,
solar home heating systems are popular in Northern USA, Europe, and
Canada. You can integrate the solar thermal system with an existing
heating system like a radiator, in-floor heat, or forced air heat system
and can expect to save up to 50% of your heating bill. Generally, a
heating home consumes a significant portion of your utility bill, and
the payback period can be within five years.
So, you should invest in a Northern Lights solar home heating system.
The solar-powered home heater uses a specifically engineered solar
storage tank. The storage tank provides storage options for solar energy
during the daytime and can release the stored energy at night when heat
demand is usually higher. The storage tank is the residential hot water
tank, so solar energy can provide solar water heating for residential
hot water and home heating in one system. The Northern Lights Solar
Solutions solar heating system comes with a 4.5 KW heating element
present in the middle part of the storage tank. It is additional whether
you use it or not.
The heating element ensures you have enough hot water even during the evening. The hybrid system is famous for solar radiant floor heating as the solar home heating system can replace the requirement for a hydronic boiler. It is because a 4.5 KW heater and solar energy will provide enough power for up to 2,000 square feet of heating space. This solar home heating kit comes with a Resol controller, which controls both the solar heating loop and the secondary heating loop. This integrated solar heating package allows you to take advantage of the highest solar heating paybacks.
In addition, the solar home
heating system can be combined with a geothermal heating system,
another popular way of combining two green energy sources that allow you
to benefit from maximum cost savings. The heat exchanger can add this
energy to the geothermal loop by using the excess heat from the solar
water heater.
Another
way to integrate solar home heating is with a solar air heater. It is a
much more affordable way of heating space but cannot store heat energy.
Instead, the air gets heated through the glass, and a selectively
coated material layer helps absorb heat. After that, a solar PV fan
system spreads the heat into the house as per the thermostatic
controller. It also works better for homes with basements or crawl
spaces that want to heat the colder air. If you want to know more about
