How solar air collector works

On a sunny day, the Eath receives 1000 watts per square meter from the Sun. This power is available all year round.

The ESOLAIR 2.0 3G made in Canada by MC2 Énergy Inc. is a high efficiency solar air heater collector. The maximum efficiency is higher than 66%.

The ESOLAIR 2.0 3G is composed of an absorbent board located under a extra clear tempered glass, collecting the heat from solar rays. A sensor controlled fan transfers the heat from the absorbent board to the air inside the building to heat.

The ESOLAIR 2.0 3G was designed to be installed on a wall facing south. It can be installed on a roof if the roof slope is over 45 degrees.

One ESOLAIR 2.0 3G can generate up to 20% de l’énergie pour chauffer 1000 pieds carrés de plancher.

Le ESOLAIR 2.0 3G peut aussi être utilisé comme échangeur d’air en préchauffant l’air venant de l'extérieur. Il permet une meilleure qualité d'air intérieur tout en réchauffant le bâtiment.

Myth 2: Solar can not provide very much energy
False. One square metre of south facing windows can supply as much power as a baseboard electric heater. The amount of solar energy falling on 15 square kilometers of Canadian land equals the entire energy capacity of all the nuclear power plants in Canada.
