Such a heating system heats three rooms with an area of ​​78 m2 in half an hour

Vlad Boyarskyi, a resident of the city of Shumsk in the Ternopil region, mounted on the roof of a private house air collector, which heats his home for free in sunny weather.

Such a system works on the principle of a furnace in a car, that is, not as a solar battery, but as a cold fusion reactor, reports KP in Ukraine.

The material said that the technology works according to the following principle: the collector on the roof is heated by the sun, air enters it, which is driven from the front door of the house by an air compressor, additionally cleaning it. Air, already heated in the collector, returns to the house through plastic pipes. At the entrance of the pipe to the room, the temperature reaches +40 degrees, and when it is distributed among the rooms, it drops to +20.

Such a device can be made independently using Boyarskyi technology, or purchased ready-made.

"The air enters the collector, passing under the profile sheet, painted in matte black color, all this is under thick glass," he explains. – A black car will heat up in the sun even in winter, right? It's the same here – the collector is black inside and covered with black matte paint on top, it works like a lens."

Such a heating system heats three rooms with an area of ​​78 m2 in half an hour.

Boyarsky also said that at the time of construction of the collector, about seven years ago, he had to spend a thousand hryvnias.

Earlier, EcoPolitic wrote, the SmartFlower solar energy system, that looks like a sunflower flower was opened in Ternopil, and is capable of intelligently tracking the sun, producing up to 40% more energy.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, in the Netherlands, the climate startup Gradyent has developed Digital Twin software for district heating, which will help saving an average of 20% of heat loss, 10% of CO2 emissions and 5-10% of fuel costs.
