Solar thermal is not as complicated as you might be thinking. These high-performance solar heating systems work by transferring solar heat from the sun to a glycol-water mixture which then heats up the water that is circulated throughout your home.
In order to have a solar thermal system operate properly in your home, you require a heat exchanger, a hot water storage tank, or a radiant heating system to help distribute the hot water throughout your home.
You can opt in to collect solar energy by placing panels on your roof, ground, or on any other surface that you think would be applicable to harvest solar power.
Although a solar heating system is an ultra-efficient solution that leverages renewable energy it is not a very popular option across homes in Calgary.
