The Sun Lizard Solar Heat Collector -- How Does It Work?

The Solar Heat Collector captures solar heat energy and transfers that heat to air that is directed into an existing or new heating system. You can combine one or more collectors into an array that will provide the total airflow volume [B6]that you need for your application. At the recommended airflow volume per collector, the air will be preheated by up to 30 degrees.

Solar Heat Collectors can be used singly or in clusters	Solar Heat Collectors can then pump that heat into the home for multiple uses

You can connect your own ducting and fans to move the air through the collectors. This is especially suited for custom small to large scale commercial, industrial and agricultural systems.

Most heating systems recycle room air to minimise the loss of heat energy, with only a small volume of outside air being introduced to maintain air quality. While the sun is shining, the Sun Lizard Solar Heat Collector is an important part of this process. However, after sunset and during periods of heavy cloud, the Sun Lizard Solar Heat Collector should be removed from this cycle. This can be achieved easily and automatically through the use of simple, thermostatically controlled air flow control boxes.

The collectors need to be mounted facing north to get maximum benefit. Specially designed frames are available to elevate and orientate the collectors if they are not able to easily face north.
