Solar Power & Solar Heating Energy

Almost half of the UK's carbon dioxide emissions come from energy we use every day - at home and when we travel. By saving energy we can all help fight climate change. Source: Energy Saving Trust.

With rising gas prices and global warming currently high on the national agenda, we're delighted to be launching a revolutionary new solar thermal system which makes positive impact on both.

Solar Smart collects solar radiation via a roof-mounted panel, converting it to energy which is used to heat a volume of stored water. A boiler is used as back-up to raise this to the correct temperature, if necessary. Because the water is partially heated by the solar element, even when it does fire, the boiler is rarely required to operate at full load.

A system boiler fires to heat stored water as soon as it drops below a certain temperature, regardless of immediate demand. A combi boiler only fires when the stored water temperature needs raising and there is an immediate demand for it, so reducing gas usage even further.

Solar Smart can deliver large volumes of hot water even during winter months and on cloudy days. Perhaps best of all, SolarSmart come in at has a ground-breaking price, fully installed and as a complete package with no complicated list of accessories to choose from.
