Abstract

A solar heating system for heating a fluid with the infrared rays of the sun to provide a thermal supply to a building usable for heating the building and the domestic hot water supply thereto may have a solar heat absorbing panel for heating the fluid, which panel may be positioned away from the building, and a heated fluid storage tank with a conduit connection therebetween, wherein a mechanism may be connected to the solar heat absorbing panel for rotating this panel in two orthogonal planes of motion for aligning the panel with the direct rays of the sun including an electrical control circuit which may provide signals for positioning the panel preparatory to the beginning of each day and for changing the position of the panel when misalignment with the direct rays of sun occurs as well as for returning the panel to its initial beginning of day position when the temperature of the fluid within the storage tank reaches an upper limit.
