Solar cooling is provided by the same solar energy that gives us warmth in the cooler months of the year.
There are a few ways solar cooling can be achieved. Solar cooling can be made by using a passive solar cooling system. The passive solar cooling system has a storage medium that gathers heat from the sun during the daylight hours. During the daytime the solar collector stays shaded and at night the solar collector is taken off of the solar cooling system. Once the solar collector is taken off of the system, the heat that was stored during the daylight hours is slowly dispersed so it can be used in the evening.
The key to a very successful solar cooling system is to start using it very early in the morning and letting it operate all day. If you start using the solar cooling system very early in the morning, you may keep your home 20 degrees cooler than if you had started later in the day.
To shade the solar cooling system you can use an easy to remove retractable shade. Make sure it is simple to use as you will be moving the retractable shade every day most likely in the morning and in the evening.
An example of being able to use the solar collector for solar cooling is an air conditioner. If you follow the above method, you can save enough solar energy/electricity to use your air conditioner without spending a penny. You will feel no guilt in spending money on air conditioning especially if you are on a budget. Plus, you will have extra money to save in the bank for your children’s college or your retirement or use the money for entertainment purposes such as vacations, family outings, going out for meals, babysitters, etc.
By using solar cooling not only are you saving money on one of your highest monthly bills, but you are keeping the Earth healthier and cleaner. Fossil fuels cannot make that statement. If you really sit and think about it, we need to keep our air clean as it is our means of breathing and living. The less chemicals that are released into the air, the better it is for all mankind. By using solar cooling, energy is conserved, less pollution and gases are in our air as well. Just think if the majority of people used solar cooling, the less energy power plants would need to create for us.
Back in the day, even the Romans had the idea of solar cooling. They used running water on the outside of their homes. The water on the outside of the home would evaporate due to the sun. While the water was evaporating on the outside of the home, the heat on the inside of the home would dispel.
We have the knowledge and we can step into the future and begin the process of saving our Earth by using solar cooling and changing the way we depend on fossil fuels. When one person tries to save money and energy, it may inspire others to follow suit.
