DOWNLOAD EBOOK →If you want an inexpensive, environmentally sound source of energy for your home, you need look no further than the sun. Solar heat is not subject to rate increases, is totally renewable, pollution free and requires little or no technology. It is here for you today, and can easily provide up to 50% of your space and water heating requirements. This is a book that simply and clearly explains the principles of using solar energy to heat your home. Anyone building a new home, or renovating an old one can incorporate one or several aspects of solar energy into their design. Taking you through the process of designing a solar home from the ground up this manual is also a basic course in conservation and sustainable house design. If you live in a 'heating' climate, meaning if you have space heating requirements for most of the year then this is an invaluable resource. A house is the biggest single investment most of us will make in our lives - the way it is built and how it operates can reflect a long term investment in both the building and the planet.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Central Heating: A Design and Installation Manual is a guide to modern domestic heating systems for those involved in the trade. The book discusses the benefits of heating systems, the effects of heating, the effect of insulation on comfort and cost, and the process of heat and moisture transfer. The text also describes the concepts, possibilities, and prevention of condensation; the basic heating system; and circuit hydraulics and variation. The chemical effect of water, the selection of hardware (i.e. gas-, oil-, and solid-fuel boilers; emitters; and cylinders), temperature control, and the design of a heating system are also considered. The book tackles the relationship between boiler size, system size, capital cost and running costs, as well as the installation of heating systems. The text will be invaluable to students taking up central heating installation related courses, householders considering installing central heating, and electricians.
