Solar home heating or solar space heating is a perfect way to harness the solar energy. Using advanced vacuum tube collectors, a solar heating system can work in -40 degree temperature. A solar space heater works along with your current heating system to utilize the solar energy to reduce of your consumption of propane, oil, or other fossil fuels. 123 Zero Energy offers solar heating systems that utilize a special solar glycol heating fluid that can work well in arctic temperatures but with standard high temperature up to 480F. The heat energy is captured in the collectors and moved to your home through a closed loop system. The heat can be transferred to the home through hydronic radiators or radiant floor heating loops or air to water heat exchanger in a forced air furnace.

A solar differential controller and pump control completely the solar space heaters. The controller enhances the performance of solar space heating systems while turning on or shutting down the pump as required. Most solar space heating applications include an energy storage tank. It’s a high insulated tank which is capable of heat storage for day until it is required. Most homes in Canada and Northern USA need enough heat energy during night when there’s no sunlight. The solar energy is stored in the storage tank throughout the day for residential applications. Please keep in mind that, a storage tank works same like a battery in a solar PV system.

“Ever home is unique and exactly same as the size of the home. Therefore, the climate and insulation value of home play a key role in choosing good quality solar space heaters. The larger system the more storage space will be required. In Northern Climates, we highly recommend 1 x 30 tube vacuum collector for every 300 square feet. Our consultants suggest purchasing a 1 x 20 tube vacuum collector for every 400 square feet in warmer climates. Besides, our storage tank can be sized equally to match the number of collectors. When it comes to choosing the storage size, the rule thumb becomes handy. Generally, storage tanks for solar space heating come with 50, 80, 119 gallon sizes. But for large size homes, you can use multiple storage tanks and run them in parallel. We recommend at least 40 gallons per 30 tube collector as a 3 collector system requires around 120 gallons of storage.
