What better way to protect against huge utility increases and at the same time show the world that you believe in green technology than to instal your own Apricus Solar system on your building. The heat can be used for domestic hot water, space heating, cooling or even process heat.
Do you have the right location?
Although not every business is ideal for a solar water heating system if your building has a southern facing roof or wall with little obstruction to the sun you might have a perfect location for an Apricus Solar system. Next, look at the slope of your roof. Ideally you want your collector to be mounted at an angle equal to your latitude (ie. Toronto = 43 degrees.) If you wish to use your Apricus collectors to provide heating to an in-floor radiant system, add 15 degrees to that angle (Toronto = ~58 degrees). Flat roofs are ideal as our High Angle mounts will give you the perfect angle.
This is an important step in sizing an appropriate solar system for your commercial building. You should always consider professional advice on sizing all the components needed for a solar water heating system but with a few small calculations you will be able to get a good idea of what's required in terms of collectors and storage tanks. Here are a few tips when using Apricus for Domestic Hot Water (DHW) heating.
First, determine how many people will be using the building on a daily basis (or 5 days a week). Generally people use only a few gallons of hot water per day while at work. Next you should look at other heating requirements such as space heating or process heat. Contact Us to have professional advise on sizing your Apricus Solar system.
How much do you have to invest?
An Apricus Solar system from Generation PV is the perfect balance of value and performance and is an affordable way lower energy bills and help the environment at the same time. As with other renewable technologies upfront capital is required to purchase the equipment and installation necessary. After installed your Apricus system will provide many years of free energy provided by the sun.
Talk with an authorized Apricus installer and discuss your budget expectations and they will optimize a system that will meet your needs both practically and financially.
Generation PV will help you find a qualified installer for your Apricus Solar system. Contact us and we'll put you in touch with a local dealer in your area.
