Abstract
A solar heating system for supplementary heat in a building and preheating a supply of domestic water which collects significant quantities of heat at low temperatures to provide an efficient system which minimizes heat loss. A water preheating system is disposed within a larger solar enclosure to provide higher temperatures to preheat water with high efficiency. The structure of the building, i.e. the basement or crawl space, is used to store heat, thereby eliminating the need for bulky heat storage devices and reducing capital investment. High efficiency is afforded by the low temperature differentials which significantly reduce radiant heat loss.
