			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Steel buildings, the potential <a title="Green Buildings" href="http://www.citysteelbuildings.com/blog/2009/steel-buildings-green-future/" target="_blank">green buildings</a> are finding more and more ways of becoming greener in the wake of increased awareness on energy-efficiency and cutting-down on green house gas emissions.</p>
<p>Transpired Solar Collector Walls is another way of reducing the energy costs.  Installing these transpired solar collector metal walls helps trapping the solar heat.  As the Sun heats the metal walls, the heated air gets into the cavity between the panels from where it is uniformly distributed throughout the building with the help of fan mounted therein.</p>
<p>This in turn takes off the additional load from the conventional heating system employed in <a title="Steel Buildings" href="http://www.citysteelbuildings.com/" target="_blank">steel buildings</a>. In fact, it is one of the most reliable and the cost-effective heating system for metal buildings.</p>
<p><strong>Transpired Solar Collector Walls for Combating the Sick Building Syndrome</strong></p>
<p>Close-attics and closed spaces can often lead to sickness, nausea, fatigue and claustrophobic ambiance for its inhabitants. Therefore, to counter the issue, it is important to let the fresh air in to ward off the sickness. Keeping in mind the environment, these transpired walls are obviously better since they use solar energy which is a natural and a clean resource.</p>
<p>Use of perforated wall panels is fast-becoming a fad in green architectures. Usually manufactured from aluminum, these can be attached vertically or horizontally. Available in varied contrasting colors, darker colors with high solar absorption rates are usually recommended.</p>
<p>These are somewhat like the <a title="Insulated Metal Panels" href="http://www.citysteelbuildings.com/blog/2009/insulated-metal-panels-energy-efficiency/" target="_blank">insulated metal panels</a> which also work toward increasing the energy efficiency of steel buildings by not neglecting the environment.</p>
