Klein, E

The solar energy system was constructed with the new 48,800 square foot warehouse to heat the warehouse area of about 39,000 square feet while the auxiliary energy system heats the office area of about 9800 square feet. The building has 18 bays, and each bay has its own solar system. The 20 collectors for each bay are mounted in a single row. These collectors are double glazed, flat plate collectors and are mounted at 53/sup 0/ to the horizontal. Air is heated either through the collectors or by the electric resistance duct coils. Return air is drawn through the collectors and circulated back into the warehouse space. There is no storage for this system. (MHR)
