Solar Now

Could I use the system to heat my home?

Yes you can! The SolVelox can handle in excess of 240,000 BTUs per solar day making it well suitable for space heating needs. You could use a radiant style heat such as a floor in your master bath, or used a forced air system by sliding a hot water coil into your existing HVAC system. This would also qualify you for an additional NC tax credit for a total of up to $3,500. With any type of space heating application there are addtional design components to keep in mind - added collectors to handle the hot water load, a larger tank or multiple tanks for added storage , controls/valves to direct the hot water to the coils, and added installation cost.
