Integrated renewable energy system

摘要

A specially designed integrated renewable energy system is operative to more efficiently and less expensively provide heating energy for conditioned space supply air and domestic hot water heating in a residential application of the type which heretofore might utilize a fuel-fired or electric furnace and a fuel-fired or electric storage type water heater to respectively generate space heating air and domestic hot water. The system utilizes solar energy in combination with what, at least predominately, are conventional, off-the-shelf air and water heating components to substantially reduce air and water heating costs in a simple manner.
