SPORTS CLUB: See health club. 777 <br />SOLAR ACCESS: A view of the sun, from any point on the collector surface, that is not obscured by any 778 <br />vegetation, building, or object located on parcels of land other than the parcel upon which the solar 779 <br />collector is located, between the hours of 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM Standard time on any day of the year. 780 <br />SOLAR COLLECTOR: A device, structure or a part of a device or structure for which the primary 781 <br />purpose is to transform solar radiant energy into thermal, mechanical, chemical, or electrical energy. 782 <br />SOLAR COLLECTOR SURFACE: Any part of a solar collector that absorbs solar energy for use in the 783 <br />collector’s energy transformation process. Collector surface does not include frames, supports and 784 <br />mounting hardware. 785 <br />SOLAR DAYLIGHTING: A device specifically designed to capture and redirect the visible portion of the 786 <br />solar spectrum, while controlling the infrared portion, for use in illuminating interior building spaces in 787 <br />lieu of artificial lighting. 788 <br />SOLAR ENERGY: Radiant energy received from the sun that can be collected in the form of heat or light 789 <br />by a solar collector. 790 <br />SOLAR ENERGY DEVICE: A system or series of mechanisms designed primarily to provide heating, to 791 <br />provide cooling, to produce electrical power, to produce mechanical power, to provide solar daylighting 792 <br />or to provide any combination of the foregoing by means of collecting and transferring solar generated 793 <br />energy into such uses either by active or passive means. Such systems may also have the capability of 794 <br />storing such energy for future utilization. Passive solar systems shall clearly be designed as a solar energy 795 <br />device such as a trombe wall and not merely a part of a normal structure such as a window. 796 <br />SOLAR ENERGY EASEMENT: See renewable energy easement. 797 <br />SOLAR ENERGY SYSTEM: A device or structural design feature, a substantial purpose of which is to 798 <br />provide daylight for interior lighting or provide for the collection, storage and distribution of solar energy 799 <br />for space heating or cooling, electricity generating, or water heating. 800 <br />SOLAR HEAT EXCHANGER: A component of a solar energy device that is used to transfer heat from 801 <br />one substance to another, either liquid or gas. 802 <br />SOLAR HOT WATER SYSTEM: A system that includes a solar collector and a heat exchanger that heats 803 <br />or preheats water for building heating systems or other hot water needs, including residential domestic hot 804 <br />water and hot water for commercial processes. 805 <br />SOLAR MOUNTING DEVICES: Devices that allow the mounting of a solar collector onto a roof surface 806 <br />or the ground. 807 <br />SOLAR STORAGE UNIT: A component of a solar energy device that is used to store solar generated 808 <br />electricity or heat for later use. 809 <br />SOLAR SYSTEM, ACTIVE: A solar energy system that transforms solar energy into another form of 810 <br />energy or transfers heat from a collector to another medium using mechanical, electrical, or chemical 811 <br />means. 812 <br />SOLAR SYSTEM, BUILDING-INTEGRATED: An active solar system that is an integral part of a 813 <br />principal or accessory building, rather than a separate mechanical device, replacing or substituting for an 814
