Uses For Solar Cooling & Heating

Solar Cooling

Solar cooling comes in the form of air conditioning and solar driven ceiling fans. If you’re conscious of your energy consumption, then solar solves that problem for you immediately.

Othe upsides are that solar aircon isn’t affected by power outages, meaning they can continue to operate even during an emergency, plus you’re doing your bit to reduce your carbon footprint.

Solar cooling your home of workplace and maintaining a dry, healthy home also protects your contents from mould. You’ll breathe better air.

 

Solar Refrigeration

Solar refrigeration is used for a variety of applications where cooling is necessary, particularly in areas without reliable access to electricity. Some common applications of solar refrigeration include:

Food Preservation

in areas where electricity is unreliable or unavailable, such as rural areas or in emergency situations.

Medical Refrigeration

Storing vaccines, blood products, and other medical supplies that require temperature control.

Agriculture

Solar refrigeration can be used in the agricultural sector to store crops and extend their shelf life, as well as to provide cooling for dairy and other livestock products.

Off-Grid, Remote Locations

In remote areas where power supply is unreliable, solar refrigeration can be used to store beverages and other perishable goods in tourism establishments like hotels, lodges, and camps.

Overall, solar refrigeration provides a sustainable and cost-effective solution for cooling applications in areas with limited access to electricity.

Solar Heating

Solar Heating commonly comes in the form of pool heaters, solar air conditioners, and water heating. Solar heating your water is one of the largest energy expenses in a home, and if you have a pool, you can heat it throughout the winter without having to consider the running costs. Solar air conditioning reverse cycle units can heat your home throughout the winter months, keeping your home healthy & comfortable. There’s nothing worse than waking up to a cold home, or worrying about the cost of heating.

 

Solar Water Heating

Solar water heating can be used in a variety of ways, including:

To provide hot water for homes or businesses. The system heats water using energy from the sun, which can reduce the reliance on traditional hot water heaters that use gas or electricity.

Solar water heating can be used to heat water for space heating in homes or businesses. This can be achieved through the use of radiant floor heating systems or radiators.

Solar water heating can also be used in industrial or agricultural processes that require hot water, such as in manufacturing or food processing. This can reduce energy costs and improve the sustainability of the process.

 

What Does Solar Heating Cost?

The cost of installing a solar heating system can vary depending on the size of the system, the type of system, the complexity of the installation, and the location of the installation. However, here are some general estimates for the cost of solar heating, however please connect with us for a free inspection and customised quotation..

The cost of a solar water heating system can range from $3,500 to $7,000. A solar pool heating system can range from $3,000 to $7,000, depending on the size of the pool or if the system needs to be retrofitted to an existing pool and the cost of a solar air conditioning system can range from $5,000 to $15,000.

All of this is available by finance with manageable repayment terms as low as $30 per week.

Need To Know's - Solar Heating & Cooling

Aircon-graphic
There are two main types of solar water heating systems: active and passive. Active systems use pumps to circulate water through the solar panels and into a storage tank, while passive systems rely on natural convection to move water through the system.
air-conditioning-icon
The efficiency of a solar water heating system can be affected by a number of factors, including the location of the panels, the angle and orientation of the panels, the size of the panels, the type of panels used, and the amount of sunlight available. When we quote your system, we'll factor all of these variables.
heating-icon
Solar water heating systems can still be effective in cold climates and winter months. However, the system may need to be designed to account for lower temperatures and less sunlight. This can include using a larger storage tank, adding insulation to the system, or using a heat exchanger to transfer heat from the panels to the water.
air-temperature-cooling-logo
Solar cooling systems use solar energy to drive a cooling cycle, which can be used to cool buildings or other spaces. This is typically achieved using absorption cooling technology, which uses a refrigerant and an absorbent material to generate cool air.
air-conditioner-airflow-strength-icon
Solar cooling systems can be used in a variety of climates, but they are most effective in hot and sunny climates where there is ample solar energy available. In colder climates, the system may not be able to generate enough cooling capacity to meet demand.
thumbs-up-icon
There are several types of solar cooling systems, including absorption chillers, desiccant cooling systems, and evaporative cooling systems. Each type uses a different process to generate cool air, and the most appropriate system will depend on factors such as the climate, the size of the space to be cooled, and the available solar resources.
