Solar project description for Homes by Marilynn multi-family residence, Albuquerque, New Mexico
The Homes By Marilynn solar energy system is installed in a multi family residence (duplex) located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The system is designed to provide solar energy for space heating and preheating DHW. Solar energy is collected by 18 liquid flat plate collectors with a gross area of 346 square feet. Solar energy is transferred from the collector array to a 1000 gallon storage tank. Freeze protection is provided by a 50% ethylene glycol and 50% water. Solar energy is delivered to a liquid-to-air heat exchanger in the space heating subsystem in order to preheat outside air for the heat pump. Preheated city water is stored in a 30-gallon preheat storage tank and supplied, on demand, to a conventional 40-gallon DHW tank.
