System does not meet its design specifications if not matched with intended application. Key differences between office and residential application were (1) space heating demand at office was greater than design value because thermostat was not held at 70 degrees F as specified, and (2) much energy collected and stored went unused because office used relatively little hot water. Report discusses observations and contains design, performance, and test information.
