Hot water straight off the roof. Solar thermal panels, cylinders and controls sized and fitted to suit the property, one of our specialist renewable trades. Cut what you spend heating water for most of the year, with a system designed to work alongside your existing boiler or heat pump and built to last.
Flat-plate or evacuated-tube collectors mounted and flashed in properly, sized to the household so you get genuine hot water savings, not just panels on a roof.
Twin-coil solar cylinders sized to store the hot water you make, plumbed in so the boiler or heat pump only tops up what the sun has not already heated.
Solar controllers and pump stations set up to run the system automatically, pulling heat to the cylinder whenever there is gain to be had.
Designed to sit alongside your existing heating so the two work together, solar doing the heavy lifting in the warmer months and the boiler picking up the rest.
It does. Solar thermal heats water rather than making electricity, and even on cloudy Staffordshire days there is usually enough to take the chill off the incoming water. Across spring, summer and autumn it can cover a big chunk of your hot water.
Solar PV makes electricity, solar thermal heats water directly through panels on the roof. Thermal is very efficient for hot water specifically, and it is one of the renewable trades we specialise in.
In most cases yes. We fit a twin-coil cylinder so the solar and your boiler both feed it. The solar heats the water when it can and the boiler only tops up the difference, so you burn less gas.
A well-sized system can cover the bulk of a household's hot water through the warmer half of the year and contribute the rest of the time. We size it to your usage and roof so the numbers actually stack up.
Less than people expect. The collectors go on the roof, the cylinder and pump station are usually sited near the existing boiler or in the airing cupboard. We plan it out, fit it tidy and leave the place clean.
