Seasonal Operation Modes
Seasonal changes in temperatures and the differing timespans for day and night are a result of the earth's positional shifts relative to the sun. Seasonal differences between daytime and nighttime temperatures are less significant at lower latitudes, but become more and more so at increasingly higher latitudes.
In the tropics, for example, average annual temperature fluctuations do not exceed a range of 9Fº (5Cº), whereas in temperate regions there can be changes of between 18 to 36Fº (10 to 20Cº). At the frigid extremities of our planet, temperatures can vary by more than 54Fº (30Cº).
Tropical climates commonly experience only two seasons — dry and rainy. In temperate climates, spring, summer, autumn and winter are distinct seasons. Frigid climates know neither spring nor autumn, but instead a rapid transition from winter to summer and back again to winter.
The OM Solar system doesn't shut out nature but instead works with it, interacting with weather patterns and outdoor conditions to maintain indoor temperatures at a comfortable, healthy level throughout the year. This section explains the year-round functioning of the OM Solar system based on climatic conditions in the Temperate Zone.
