Abstract
An improved heat storage and cooling system utilizing a conventional solar energy collector as a heat source, a thermal mass of stacked cement blocks with interal horizontally aligned air passageways for warm or cool air storage and a dual-purpose structural wall of staggered hollow cement blocks to generate cool air. The system is self-contained and multi-functional, located either in a fully bermed room adjacent on any side to the area to be serviced or in a basement room embedded in the earth beneath the area to be serviced. The circulation system of metal ducts, pipes, air handler, circulating fan, gas heater and dampers interconnects the solar energy collector, the thermal mass and cooling walls to provide seven modes of operation for the storage of heat or cold and the circulation of warm or cool air as circumstances may require.
