The Sun Lizard Solar Air Shifter is an ideal and energy efficient
way of extending the reach and effectiveness of your existing climate
control systems, all day and all night, irrespective of whether
you use solar passive design, active heating and air conditioning,
or a combination of these options.
This system is well suited if you find that. you can keep your
main living rooms comfortable, but other rooms of the house are
too cold in winter, and too hot and stuffy in summer you have a
store of cool air that would be ideal to aid the cooling of the
rest of your house in summer – for example a cellar or underfloor
space that is always cool no matter how hot it is outside
The Sun Lizard Solar Air Shifter harnesses free solar energy to
take the warm or cool air from one space to up to two other rooms,
equalising the air temperature and creating a subtle air flow that
removes any mustiness or stuffiness.
A simple and compact design is offered as a DIY installation kit
which can also be installed by your local builder or plumber in
to an existing building or to a building under construction.
A mains powered plug pack is provided with each system so you
can continue shifting the warm or cool air during night time when
solar energy is unavailable. It can easily be plugged into an existing
power point for ease of install and without the need for an electrician.
