I dont see the point in making an emergency option convienient. Forget solar thermal, this is to much hussle for anything. PV plus battery more likly the solution you want.
- Retric 1y agoLess about convenient than being to go on vacation in the winter. Work out the amount of solar + batteries you need in the winter when the power goes out and your COP is less than 2 because it’s very cold and you need more BTU’s than normal because it’s very cold. Solar thermal is just significantly cheaper on a large home in a cold climate.
- looofooo0 1y agoNo, this does not work. Solar thermal will not work without power. Any battery solution monitoring your home temperatures are enough. Then you can travel home or ask your neighbor.
