Ducted Solar Heating System
|
Solectair is a new way of transferring stored heat from your roof space into your home living areas.
Direct sunshine on your roof's surface causes it to heat up.
This heat is transferred into the roof space, creating a large readily available heat source.
This warm air is then drawn from the roof space and transferred via ducting and ceiling vents to each room in your home, thereby raising living room temperatures at minimum cost.

Heating Mode:
Throughout the year, the sun heats the roof of your home and
therefore also the air between the ceiling and roof.
During autumn, winter and spring, dependent on the amount of
sunshine, roof colour and roof type, an abundant supply of
useful warm air is created in your roof space during the day.
(Similar to the warmth that will build up inside your car on a
cool but sunny day)
The patented Solectair microprocessor control system is
connected to sensors in the house and roof. When the roof air
temperature is warmer than air in the house and other parameters
are met, the HTS fan will automatically transfer the warm solar
heated air through a filter, ducting and vents into the house.
The Solectair controller automatically regulates the
operation to maximize this store of free solar energy to heat
your home.
The thermal mass of the building i.e. the walls, floor and
contents etc. will absorb the warmth from the solar heated air
ducted to the house interior and re-radiate it into the living
areas overnight.
This raises the living and sleeping space ambient temperature
to an appreciably more comfortable level. In many cases, the use
of Solectair will almost totally alleviate the need to use
conventional heating in autumn and spring with a reduced need
for conventional heating during winter.
