Solar Thermal Energy Renewable Energy Services |
Domestic Solar Water Heating Solar water heating is becoming increasingly popular and is a relatively inexpensive way of using solar energy. The technology is proven and both flat plate solar panels and evacuated tubes have been in wide use throught Europe for many years. The UK is someway behind but is starting to catch up, solar panels are increasingly in evidence on the South facing rooflines of many houses.
In kit form we supply the 'solar' parts of the system. In addition we offer a matched hot water cylinder and 10M flexipipe system as optional extras. You or your plumber might have a preferred supplier for this part of the system. We are normally able to supply an inclusive fitting service, the complete installation starting at £2,995 inclusive of VAT! See our eshop for all prices, parts and further information.
Perhaps a camp site and want to install a solar heated shower? Why not look at our Off-Grid solution, as seen when you are on Holiday in Spain or Greece but also available in the UK!

Solar hot water systems should cost in the region of £3,000 to £4,000 installed, of course there are exceptions but if you live in a relatively normal house and need a fairly standard system that will satisfy the practical needs of a normal family, that's what you should pay! Always get a number of quotes! There are a number of companies that are using a hard sell technique selling Solar Heating installations for £5,000, £6,000 and more, invariably for the same systems that can be purchased for almost half the amount quoted.
Though there is at least one company promoting solar panels for space heating this is little more than a scam! See Passive Solar Heating for a view of the use of solar energy and space heating Tthe only practical form of solar panel to use for space heating is a velux window! Solar Panels for space heating, okay if you have a superinsulated house with effectively zero heat loss, there might well be two in the country, but if you have gotto that point, you won't be talking to that kind of 'snake oil' salesman!
