Solar collectors
Solar collectors have the task of transforming the energy of the sun into heat energy.
Solar combi tank
Tanks in the tank system (DHW tank in the buffer tank) with two heat exchangers (1 for heating appliance, 1 for solar appliance). See solar storage tank.
Solar controller
Controls the operation of the solar heating systems.
Solar heat
This refers to the transformation of solar energy into heat with the help of solar liquid in solar collectors with solar collectors for domestic water heating, heating assistance, and pool heating.
Solar heating system
A solar heating system transforms the radiation energy of the sun into heat energy. Essential components are the solar collectors, the solar storage tank, and the controls.
Solar storage tank
Tank with two heat exchangers in different positions. The lower heat exchanger serves to heat via the solar heating system. The upper heat exchanger is only needed for the heating appliance if the solar radiation is not sufficient.
Standard efficiency
Measure of the usage of the energy in the fuel.
Stratifying tank
Energy-efficient possibility for hot water heating. Here, the hot water is layered into the tank from above.
Supply temperature
The temperature at which the heated water in the heating circuit of the central heati flows from the boiler into the heating areas in the rooms.
