This installation has the flat plate collector panels mounted at different angles because the system is designed for space heating and for household hot water. The upright panels are mounted to maximize their efficiency for winter time use. They will collect plenty of heat during the winter but very little during the summer. This will keep the system from overheating during the summer. The panels supply heat to the two large tanks in the picture below. The manifolds on the wall are the hydronic radiant heat system in which the solar heated water circulates to provide heat for the house.

Complete Resources Building & Repair, Inc., Athens Georgia’s #1 Green Builder, has been serving the Athens-Clarke County area since 2001 with high quality green homes as well as remodeling and renovations. In 2004 we began incorporating decorative concrete, and hydronic radiant heat, in our work and now we offer solar—thermal and PV.

As green builders, we specialize in custom insulated concrete (ICF & AAC block*) construction (for ultra energy efficiency) and uniquely creative space efficient homes. We have a very talented team to help you design and build the home of your dreams.

Our goal is to build sustainable, green homes which fit your family’s creative lifestyles. In 2006 we were awarded “Best Infill Development” in Clarke County for our Northside Heights Development by the Athens Grow Green Coalition.

We follow green building guidelines to minimize our impact on the environment including small foot-print designs, selective tree removal and site placement, solar energy products, reclaimed materials, salvaged and/or materials with recycled content, low VOC materials for improved indoor air quality, Icynene insulation, radiant heat, energy efficient appliances, water reclamation, rainwater harvesting, construction debris recycling etc. With State of the Art design software, we can help you design and plan the home of your dreams.

We are very proud of the work we do and to our approach toward sustainable living and building. If you are looking to expand the home you are in, or custom-design a new home, we are available to help you along the way.
