This report documents the work of 17 experts from the diverse climates of nine countries in Europe and North America. Applications include single-family houses, apartment buildings, schools, gymnasiums, large industrial buildings and commercial buildings. The publication reports on six different types of solar air systems in 35 buildings.
Solar Air Systems Product Catalogue
November 1998 - Posted: 2008-08-01
Editor: R. Hastings and H. Røstvik
Publisher: Earthscan
ISBN: 1-873936-84-2
This catalogue is to inform building designers what components are available "off the shelf" for putting together a solar air system. Manufactured components or whole systems may be less expensive, more efficient and more reliable than custom-designed, site-built systems. The goal of this catalogue is therefore to prevent the wheel from being repeatedly reinvented.
