Re-Roofing and Maintenance Services in DevonSolar heating panel installation for hot water
Over the past few years, the cost of living and demand for energy has been steadily increasing. As a consequence for many of us our concern for the environment is often over shadowed by our need to save money. With fuel costs constantly rising and solar technology becoming more widely available and more affordable, there has never been a better time to invest in solar power. There are many options, one of the most realistic for residential homes is solar thermal panels to provide hot water.
It is a popular misconception that utilising solar energy is only possible in hot, sunny climates. It is daylight and not just direct sunshine which is important. Solar thermal panels have been developed to produce enough energy to provide domestic hot water for the average family home. The panels are specially coated to collect as much energy as possible even on dull and overcast days. What's more, most solar panels are designed to complement existing heating systems that have stored hot water.
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Cells for electricity
Solar photovoltaic panels use energy from the sun to create DC electricity to run appliances and lighting in the home. Photovoltaic solar panels require only daylight and not direct sunlight, as often thought, to generate electricity.
We have recently teamed up with Alex McGrath of Alpha-Vae Solar, an MCS accredited company, and now are in a position to offer quality installed solar panels & cells using the professional skills required from the two trades in order to complete an installation.
We pride ourselves on the quality of our workmanship and also work closely with Velux and are registered contractors for Solar Century, a long established company, providing solar technologies for residential and commercial technologies across Europe.
