| The air heater wall should be inside a sunspace, to keep it warmer during the day, when losses are greatest. |
|
| Heat is collected from the upper part of the sunspace and blown via ducting to other areas of the house. |
|
| As stated earlier in this report on the hypothesis page, we believe the sunspace will overheat on sunny days. |
|
| A modern variation on the porch is the sunroom or sunspace, conservatory, greenhouse, or solarium. |
|
| Drawing air from the sunspace will also lower the temperat u re there and may thus diminish its habitability and buffering effect in winter. |
|
| It is possible to use a sunspace in two different ways for solar energy collection. |
|
| The sunspace becomes warmer than the outside air by absorbing short-wave solar radiation from the sun. |
|
| Friday was a day with no decisions needed, and digging for the foundations of the sunspace is completed. |
|
| Once the back dormer window arrives, its render can be finished and roof changes to accommodate the sunspace can be completed. |
|
| Concrete absorbs daytime heat and emits it later, so that air from the sunspace will keep the house warmer in the evenings. |
|
| Brush sealings were designed for the windows and balcony doors placed between the glazed sunspace and the apartments. |
|
| Care must be taken to avoid heating the sunspace in winter or the energy consumption will rise considerably. |
|
| The sunspace or conservatory consists of a glazed enclosed area on the south sude of building. |
|
| Normally the minimum sunspace temperat u res is not regulated and it is not supplied with auxiliary heating. |
|
| In many cases a sunspace is used as preheat for the ventilation air required by the house. |
|
| This was something I put together as a kind of experiment to see if a little sunspace made from scrap lumber and some poly sheeting could collect any useful heat. |
|
| This may be a positive contribution to the heating of these rooms, heat flow can be encouraged by opening windows and doors facing into the sunspace. |
|
| To prevent overheating in the summer, a shading device is installed inside the upper half of the external glazing to the sunspace. In addition, the roof is not glazed. |
|
| The sunspace will have tiles on top of concrete, with insulation beneath. |
|
| We concluded that the tenants did not ventilate the sunspace well. |
|
|
|
| The mean sunspace temperature is 9 °C higher then the outside temperature. |
|
| Depending on the climate and the way in which the sunspace is ussed, there may be a heat storage wall separating the suspace from building, or other storage within the suns pace and the house. |
|
| Thermal exchange between a sunspace and adjacent rooms depends on their respective temperatur e. For much of the heating season the direction of the heat flow is from the heated spaces to the sunspace. |
|
| In periods of little sunshine and low outdoor temperature the main resource of heat for the sunspace is through its contact with adjacent heated spaces. |
|
| Discussing the sunspace gutters with our foreman Luke, he also reminded me of how brilliant the sunspace will look, and I remembered that this has been a major motivation from the start. |
|
| The houses with a sunspace are garden orientated. |
|
| Our solution is to have laminated cork with an underlay of 10mm of cork insulation sheet from Biofa everywhere downstairs except the shower room and sunspace. |
|
| In the summer the sunspace is ventilated to lose heat. |
|
| Sunspace is the only manufacturer in North America of houses that are both domed and rotatable. |
