Radiant Solar Floor Heating System

There are two types of radiant floor heating electric and water based systems.

Radiant solar floor heating system. Radiant heating systems supply heat directly to the floor or to panels in the wall or ceiling of a house. The system is designed to be used as the primary heating source for any radiant floor system replacing the need for an expensive boiler. Radiantec systems are versatile. Solar water heaters are commonly used as heat sources for radiant floor systems in regions where an abundant solar resource is available.

Introducing the wolds 1st complete solar solar radiant floor heating system. Earlier solar heating systems would first heat a storage tank and then distribute the stored heat with radiant heating tubes. Radiantec solar energy systems use under floor radiant heat the most comfortable and efficient way to utilize the sun s energy. Normally a large solar heated storage tank with electric gas or oil backup supplies hot water to the radiant system and most often provides for domestic needs as well.

When solar energy is used directly to provide radiant heat the radiant floor system cannot be used by the backup heating system as this use would compromise the solar storage. You can set the temperature to whatever feels most comfortable to you. Solflo heating system combines radiant floor heating with our solar heating system for the ultimate in energy efficiency when heating a home addition. Warm water systems run hot water through pipes to create heat whereas electric underfloor heating heats wiring beneath the floor to generate heat.

This hybrid solar radiant heating system is a complete solar heating kit that works with any in floor heating loop or radiant floor system. Both the solar system and the radiant floor systems are environmentally friendly due to the saving they provide in the consumption of fossil fuels. Radiantec systems produce solar domestic hot water. This is important because domestic hot water is a significant energy user.

The solar system can directly offset a portion of the fuel required to heat the water for the radiant floor system by at least 30 when compared to conventional forced air systems. Both provide heating in a room from the floor up for consistent efficient warmth. The systems depend largely on radiant heat transfer the delivery of heat directly from the hot surface to the people and objects in the room via infrared radiation.
