How to Install Solar Thermal Panels

Solar thermal panels use infrared radiation from the sun to heat a mixture of glycerol and water, which then warms the water in our hot water cylinders. They are remarkably effective at converting energy and perform well in winter, even when it doesn't feel that warm. If positioned on a south-facing roof, these panels reduce the amount spent on heating water as this is typically traditionally achieved through a gas or oil boiler.

This is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to harness solar energy for your hot water needs, but it requires specialist installation. To install, get three quotes from local installers who are MSC registered.
