What It Is
Solar thermal panels collect heat from the sun and transfer it to a hot water cylinder. We assess the roof, the existing hot water system and the cylinder before specifying a system, and installation is carried out by an appropriately certified installer partner.
Why It Matters
Water heating is a significant part of household energy use. Solar thermal reduces the energy needed to heat it for much of the year.
- Reduces energy used for hot water
- Works alongside boilers and heat pumps
- Suitability confirmed by survey
- No generic savings promised
