Solar Heating Commercial Applications

Commercial, government and institutional facilities have a new source for dependable, continuous and cost-effective energy with American Solar. The company's systems cost-effectively gather large amounts of solar heated air. With these innovative technologies, customers can use solar energy in several new ways.

Customers with applications that require year round energy loads and that use high-cost heating sources benefit the most. With American Solar’s air heating systems, customers can more efficiently heat:

• Air in spaces such as warehouses, factories, offices, etc
• Hot water for commercial or industrial processes
• Boilers for buildings
• Emergency generators to insure a ready-to-start environment, and
• More

Facilities using expensive heating sources such as electric resistant reap the greatest saving. With today's energy prices, solar thermal energy is relatively inexpensive. Most building owners will reduce their energy costs with American Solar systems.

Due to the low cost of delivered solar thermal energy, American Solar's customers also use the company's products for their large seasonal heating loads. Facilities need seasonal heating for ventilation air pre-heating, heat pump outdoor coil preheating, geothermal heat pump final heating, and direct space heating. Many boilers have seasonal operating cycles that support boiler air preheating.

Even facilities with unusual heating applications (like clothes dryer air preheating, or preheating air for gas or oil furnace combustion) can reduce their energy costs with the American Solar system.
