How Solar Energy Heats Your Home<br />

Although <strong>the</strong> UK is not renowned for hours of sunshine, due to advanced technology<br />

householders can still enjoy high energy levels from our Tempest Solar System.<br />

Solar radiation is absorbed by <strong>the</strong> collector’s evacuated tubes and converted into heat.<br />

Pipes conduct <strong>the</strong> heat to a header through which a conductive liquid (water or water/glycol)<br />

is pumped. The liquid is circulated through a pump station to <strong>the</strong> coil in <strong>the</strong> Tempest Solar<br />

Cylinder where <strong>the</strong> liquid gives up its energy to <strong>the</strong> water in <strong>the</strong> cylinder in <strong>the</strong> form of heat.<br />

In every part of <strong>the</strong> UK a Tempest Solar system will provide free energy to heat domestic<br />

hot water reducing household energy bills.<br />

Tempest Stainless Steel Solar Cylinder<br />

The heart of <strong>the</strong> system in which water for domestic use is<br />

heated with <strong>the</strong> energy collected at <strong>the</strong> solar panel. The cylinder<br />

also has a boiler coil and immersion heater for back up.<br />

Evacuated Tube Solar Panel<br />

Absorbs and transfers solar<br />

energy to hot water cylinder via<br />

<strong>the</strong> pump station.<br />

Pump Station<br />

Monitors and circulates heated<br />

liquid from <strong>the</strong> solar panel to<br />

<strong>the</strong> Tempest Stainless Stell<br />

Solar cylinder coil to heat<br />
