About Solar Energy

A Solar Thermal System is the perfect way to satisfy your hot water needs.

As fossil fuels are in decline and the costs are rising, a solar thermal system is a very effective way of saving money and reducing your homes carbon emissions.

You can realistically expect the solar system to provide you with between 20-90% of your hot water needs annually. Indeed in the summer months you can realistically expect to not use your conventional hot water system at all. Making you significant savings.




Radiation Intensity

Clear sunny days also occur in winter.

50-70% of the global radiation in the UK consists of diffuse light.
The solar collectors have to be suitable for this light.

A standard 2 panel system has an overall surface area of 4.6m2 giving a potential yield of 4600W/m2.
