A solar heating siding panel adapted to be mounted on the side of a building in a vertical position which includes on the outside double panes of clear glass secured in a housing horizontally spaced outwardly of the building. Inwardly of the housing is located a heat collector closed on the inside by a heat exchanger of substantially thin foil material and spaced inwardly of the glass panes. The collector confines dead air to be solar heated through the glass panels. The heat exchanger has a dull color on the inside and a bright surface on the building side. A longitudinal passage extends within the panel between the bright foil inner wall of the heat exchanger and a second bright thin foil abutting the sheathing or outer structural wall of the building. There are lower and upper passages leading from the longitudinal passageway into the lower and upper portions of a room in the building to be heated. Hinged and temperature controlled dampers at both ends of the passages control the flow of the cooler air through the bottom passage from the lower portion of the room into the longitudinal passageway to be heated therein and thence through the upper passage into the upper portion of the room. In addition fail safe dampers are provided at the upper and lower ends of the unit which open to the outside air to permit discharge of heated air from the panel under certain predetermined, usually high temperature conditions.

A solar heating siding panel assembled in a vertical position on the side of a building for heating an air space within the building, which comprises a housing adapted to be secured to the building, said housing having a frame member horizontally spaced from a wall of the building, double panes of glass secured within the frame in a vertical position, A thin non-supporting foil-like heat exchanger secured within the frame in a vertical position, said heat exchanger being located in a space relationship between said panes of glass and said wall of the building for forming a dead air spaced and a longitudinal passage for heating air by solar energy respectively, the surface of the foil heat exchanger facing the panes of glass being of a dull color and the surface of the foil heat exchanger facing said wall provided as a bright reflective surface, a bright foil-like reflective material provided against the wall of the building a first passage through the wall of the building connecting the lower portion of the longitudinal passageway to the air space within the building, a second passage through the wall of the building connecting the upper portion of the longitudinal passageway to the air space within the building, temperature controlled valve means opening and closing the first passage under predetermined temperature settings to control the flow of room air from inside the building to the longitudinal passage to be heated therein by solar energy, and additional temperature controlled means opening and closing the second passage to control the flow of heated air into the building through the second passageway.
