Description of product


EASE OF ORDERING
To make life as straight forward as possible, Grant have introduced a series of individually numbered kits that meet most installation requirements.
These simply consist of the Sahara collector, a roof mounting system, expansion vessel, pump station, control panel, pipe connections and solar fluid - all of which can be installed in approximately two or three days.


DESIGNING YOUR SYSTEM
Grant Solar Collectors have a total area of 2.34m2. As a rule of thumb, when sizing a system, you should allow 1.0-1.3m2 of collector area, per person.
Cylinder requirements are 50-60 litres capacity per m2 of collector area.To simplify this, for a 2-Collector system of 4.68m2, you would require a cylinder of approximately 200 litres. This would be sufficient for 4 people and satisfy up to 70% of your hot water demand per annum.


Things to consider:
_ Location of building
_ Orientation of building
_ Angle of Inclination (roof)
_ % of Solar Contribution
_ Hot water requirements
_ Volume of system
_ Shade
_ Collector array in m2
_ Size of cylinder
_ Pipework requirements
