Solar Hot Water & Heating

The classic solar thermal application
One of the oldest application of solar thermal, also in the company history of SOLID, is sanitary or domestic hot water preparation and space heating for residential or commercial buildings

High efficient use of solar heat

Fresh water has a tab temperature of 10–20° C and thus leads to excellent efficiency of solar thermal collectors

Many buildings, like multi-family homes, hotels, hospitals, dorms and prisons have high sanitary hot water demand all year round. For these buildings solar thermals are perfect in combination with a hot water storage. The solar energy is yielded during the day and can be used all day round, e. g. in mornings and evenings, when inhabitants take a shower. Other use for hot water is kitchen and laundry.
