ABSTRACT:
A solar collector device adapted to be mounted upon the roof of a building in which a solar collector panel, including a chamber defined by a heat-conducting bottom wall, a coil for conveying heat-transfer fluid through the collecting chamber and in heat-conductive relationship with the bottom wall and a translucent upper cover, is mounted in spaced relationship above the roof to provide an air space between the collector panel and the roof through which hot air is transferred in heat-conducting relationship with the bottom wall. This collector device is particularly adapted for mounting above a roof having an attic-type space. A vent opening is formed through the roof communicating the attic-type space with the air space beneath the collector panel, whereby hot air from the attic-type space is conveyed in heat-transfer relationship with the bottom wall of the solar panel, so that the heat transfer medium in the coil receives heat, not only from the sun's rays, but also from the over-heated air within the attic space. The solar collector device is preferably shaped to straddle the ridge of a double-sloping roof.
