Prefabricated solar heating unit for house - includes bathroom and part of kitchen with energy collector in outer wall installed once main walls are built

摘要

The process is used to build houses equipped with solar-energy heating systems, and involves use of prefabricated transportable solar cells (17) in buildings of traditional construction. Each cell is equipped to produce water heated by solar energy and to gather solar energy. Initially the main walls and foundations of the house are built with a south-facing space reserved for the prefabricated unit (17), the latter then being installed with the gathering-panel (6) occupying the exposed south face. The prefabricated unit may comprise a bathroom (18) and part kitchen (23) with full fittings including water storage tanks (7) with circulatory pumps.
