Solar collectors and photovoltaic cells in your home

The book presents the ways of using solar energy, various technical solutions for solar installations, their technical parameters, ways of designing, assembly and examples of solutions in buildings, as well as the most important operating instructions for such installations.
The book is addressed to distributors and installers of solar collectors and photovoltaic cells and all those interested in assembly and use of these devices in buildings.
The sun is an inexhaustible source of free energy, reaching the Earth in an amount exceeding the current demand of humanity about 5000 times. It is no wonder that the increasing use of solar energy can also be observed in Poland. You can use this energy in the form of heat or convert it into electricity. Liquid solar collectors are successfully used for heating domestic hot water and central heating installations. In turn, photovoltaic cells, also called photovoltaic cells, are used to generate electricity for household needs, the surpluses of which can be sold to the power grid - this is quite common in our western neighbors.
