Dimensioning the system
Dimensioning of the solar thermal energy system depends on several factors, among them: geographic location, number of solar hours, orientation of the panels in relation to south and not least your own energy demand.
You can calculate your energy and dimension of the application by using our energy calculator:
Housing / Homes:
Start with your heated living surface. The number of m2 with solar thermal panels should be 10-15% of this area.
Eg. - You have a dwelling of 200 m2, so the size of the collector should be between 20 and 30 m2.
The heat store should be dimensioned so that it allow 50-100 liters of accumulation volume per m2 of solar thermal panels. In this case, between 1000 and 3000 liters
Drain tank should be dimensioned so that it allow 3.5 liter with circulation volume per m2 of thermal solar panels. In this case, between 70 and 105 liters.
Other facilities:
We have developed comprehensive tool for calculation of energy and energy yield through the use of solar thermal energy.

Installation of panels
Here you'll find what you need to install our solar thermal panels on the roof or wall.
Assembly of Piping
Installing the piping
Here you will find dimmentions and guidance for Piping of thermal solar system.
Installation of the heat store
We do not produce heat stores anylonger, but we cooperate with the largest manufacturers - including OSO Hotwater
Assembly and operation of the system controller
The system controller is connected to power and heat sensors from the storage tank and the collectors.
A detailed manual for the system controller acompany the system from SolarNor.
