1 – The building’s air exchange rate. If this information is not available, it is important to know what the different spaces in the building will be used for. The more air changes the building requires, the longer the thermal panel will be and the greater the energy savings will be as well. 2 – The city where the building will be located and the building’s orientation. Orientation is a very important factor: a wall facing east or west is 40% less energy-efficient than a south-facing wall. 3 – The building’s operating schedule. The longer the building’s operating time, the greater the annual savings will be. 4 – The height of the panel. The greater the height of the panel, the more energy-efficient it will be.
