Design and Consulting Services

American Solar has broad expertise in solar heating and energy management. American Solar's staff answers the most challenging questions related to solar heating design and energy management. The company employs a number of experts with decades of energy management expertise in the largest energy-using organizations in the nation.

We provide solar heating design and consulting services to clients who wish to reduce their energy costs.

We specialize in the design of cost effective solar heating systems that are not subsidy dependent and which provide high rates of return to building owners, energy managers, and businesses. In addition, we understand how to productively use low and mid temperature heat sources that are often considered waste heat. We pride ourselves on using innovative, but practical approaches to solar and non-solar heat recovery to reduce facility or building energy use.

We also produce solutions to energy problems that others have not even considered. For example, where others try to make solar air conditioning systems work with expensive water heating panels, we have designed and built a system that uses solar heated summer air from a roof to drive an air conditioning system with less electrical power use than a conventional air conditioner. Our Heater Board solar air heating panels are another example of a breakthrough in solar heating that lowers price and expands the uses of low cost solar heat.

We can provide these engineering and energy design services as part of our design-build capabilities, or we can work with other design professionals and construction contractors to deliver cost effective solar heating systems. We have provided these design services in the past to architects, builders, building owners, energy service companies, and home owners.

Where necessary, we will bring in contractors and design professional with other required expertise. We have worked closely with energy management firms, structural design firms, and energy engineers on a variety of projects.

If you have a responsibility for designing or heating a facility, building, or industrial process, contact us to find out how you can cut your energy use with solar heating, solar heat recovery, and thermal energy management. We can provide unique field tested solar engineering and energy management expertise that can save you energy and money. Contact us at info@americansolar.com
