As the experiences show, the MiraSolaris Eco-Habitat was able to cover over 60 % of the space heating independent of the strength of winter. Only in the period from November to the beginning of March the system doesn't run totally free of CO₂-emissions.

Finding an economically and eco-friendly short term heat store (24 h).
External Walls: The external walls are made of 100% ecologically stones with concrete cores where thermal solar energy is stored in winter.
The constant supply of this free energy from the solar collectors prevents external losses of transmission heat to a large extent and makes savings in heating costs of up to 20% possible.
Internal Walls, Ceilings and Foundation Plate: The building's internal walls and/or ceilings and/or foundation plate can be equipped with heat exchanger arrays to heat the rooms, which are either supplied with energy from the thermal solar power system or from an additional source of heating (pellet stove, heating pump). This energy is then released as a pleasant radiating warmth in the adjacent rooms.
