Solar Heating Installations in the Furness & Lake District area.

With the cost of energy continuously on the rise, and the world’s supply of natural resources ever dwindling, one thing is for sure, energy bills are heading north unless you decide to act now.

Solar heating is one of the fastest growing sources of renewable energy in the UK, on average a correctly sized system can provide 40-60% of your homes hot water requirements in a year.

Solar heating panels are not to be confused with photovoltaic panels; these provide electricity for the home, but can take up to 30 years to pay themselves back. A solar heating installation can take as little as 7 years to pay itself back at current oil and gas prices: The EIA (Energy Information Administration) and many leading economists are forecasting that crude oil prices will increase by 85% by 2015.

At Angus Jenkinson Ltd we believe that each Solar Heating installation should be customized towards your preferences or needs. We will personally visit your property and work out your exact requirements. This will not only depend on the size of your property, but also the usage and the radiation it will receive from the sun.

Solar heating applications are generally installed in homes which use a conventional boiler and hot water tank. The installation requires your standard cylinder to be replaced by that of a Twin Coil arrangement as shown in the below diagram. This allows you to heat the water In your home through the use of your existing boiler and using the solar collectors.

The good news is that research has shown that solar panels for hot water can add up to £10,000 to the value of a house!
