An overview of the Tri-Cylinder system and underfloor heating.

So-lar Smart Heating Systems Ltd. in association with Begetube UK Ltd. Underfloor heating are leading the market with their innovative designs aimed at reducing the use of carbon based fuels.

 The Tri-Cylinder system is designed and controlled to use as much of the solar generated energy as possible before bringing the boiler heat source into the equation. The design ensures that any heat energy available will act on the domestic hot water and the house heating system.

As with all alternative energy production solar panels are weather dependant, and in the course of a year they will produce the bulk of the hot water requirements. But the average temperature they can produce in the heating season will be less than that required to operate a standard radiator or underfloor system. However, underfloor heating can be designed to operate successfully at these low flow temperatures in conjunction with the Tri-Cylinder and solar collectors. Installing this system has the following benefits:-

• Keeps the solar circuit running for longer periods
• Holding off the primary heating appliance for as long as possible
• Savings on fuel costs
• Reducing emissions
• Heating the property at very low flow temperatures
• The controls incorporate a re-set control, this will automatically adjust the water temperature flowing in the heating circuit dependant on external temperature. This facility further lowers the flow temperature and saves more energy.

Low cost heat energy and efficient heat distribution and control are only part of the overall picture, these principals must be considered in conjunction with effective insulation. The tri-cylinder, solar panel and underfloor heating system will be cost effective at putting the heat energy where it is required. Before doing this it is important to verify that the energy will not leaking out of the house due to poor insulation.
