Numerous Firms Are Installing Solar Heating Facades On Their Buildings

By Beryl Dalton


Almost every person out there is trying to reduce their carbon footprint. Many of the latest buildings to be erected are opting for solar heating facades. It not only gives the face of the building a good impression but can lessen the cost of electricity as well. This will help with the reducing of costs to be spent on other important aspects of the businesses involved.

Some are even going as far as designing coverings for car parks to prevent sun damage. All existing car parks that have side walling and open roof space could also be put to good use. Using this method will increase the lifespan of the vehicle as it will help with the battery life lasting much longer.

To help the process of more businesses implementing solar panels to their buildings the government should provide certain incentives. This could be in the form of a tax break and at the same time reduce the cost of energy by feeding it back into the grid. Government contracts could be given out to federal and state buildings which each can compete for.

Many of these larger thermal systems have a life span of about twenty five years and do outlive the standard boiler system by about five years. The operating cost is however much lower as one kWh of electrical energy is needed to produce forty to fifty kWh of heat. It does differ depending on the intricacy of the system installed.

One very good idea that ensured heat was distributed into a building was by the Revered Poole and two of the members of his congregation. They used both beer and soda cans cut in half which reduced their fuel cost by over fifty percent. The plan was drawn up over a weekend and was put into practise on a sunny afternoon. The inside temperature reached ninety five degrees Celsius and the council then decided to fund two more of these units.

When things do go wrong and they need to be replaced one will need to know who is responsible for replacing it. It will need to be established as to whom the system belongs to and whether they are still in business. In some cases the original panel might not be available and in that case which one closest to the design will need to be attached in its place. When this happens it is seldom that one will need to pay much of an expense to replace it as they are normally under warrantee.

Many use the solar power to charge batteries so as to utilize them at night but these are very large and extremely heavy not to mention the fact they require large spaces for storage. Many of them only last a few years and will need to be replaced eventually. They are also very expensive to purchase.

Solar facades will soon be a familiar sight as one walks around town. It will enhance the beauty of the sky reflecting on the panels and will also help to keep the environment free from chemicals. The atmosphere will be much clearer and healthier which in turn will reduce many diseases people suffer from.
