Warm floors and other ways of heating based on renewable sources of energy and environmental heat.
Recent advances in the field of engineering ideas based on renewable sources allow us to build a very interesting system of heating in a private home.
Using the heating systems controllers Steca TH A603 M we can create a highly efficient heating system.
The system consists of a classical stand-alone photovoltaic solar system, heat pump, hot water storage tank, elements of home heating (warm floors or battery), pumps and pumping coolant management system to maintain the temperature in the home-based controllers Steca TH A603 M.
The working scheme of such a system is as follows:
Photovoltaic part generates and stores electricity that feeds the heat pump, heat is pumped from the environment to the heat transfer fluid that is in the water tank. Heat transfer fluid is pumped through the heating elements of the house and provides heat to the house. Controller Steca TH A603 M provide both maintenance of a comfortable temperature inside the home and monitors the economical expenditure of energy.
The effectiveness of such a system is provided by three important factors:
- The use of sunlight to generate electricity;
- The use of heat pumps "air-to-water" for the generation of heat and its subsequent accumulation. Heat pumps produce 2-4 times more heat energy than they consume and thus multiply the energy received from the sun.
- Controllers Steca TH A603 M ensure the efficient use of the stored energy for heating the house.
Also, such system can be enhanced by water solar collectors to benefit from the solar energy production time (daytime light) and/or the classical gas heaters which are particularly good for cold period, or any other conventional heating systems.
