    FAQs

    The cost of a solar thermal system depends on your property’s size, roof type, hot water demand, and whether you’re installing it alongside a new cylinder or boiler. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quotation tailored to your home.

    Yes. Solar thermal systems are designed to work alongside most gas, oil and LPG boilers, as well as heat pumps. The solar panels pre-heat your hot water, with your existing heating system providing any additional heat when required.

    Savings vary depending on your household’s hot water usage and the size of your system. A well-designed solar thermal system can provide a significant proportion of your annual hot water needs, helping to reduce energy bills and lower carbon emissions.

    Yes. Solar thermal panels still collect energy during colder months, although they generate less heat than in summer. They work throughout the year whenever there is daylight, not just during bright sunshine.

    Most domestic installations are completed within one to two days, although larger or more complex systems may take longer. We’ll provide a clear installation schedule before work begins.

    Absolutely. We service and maintain most makes and models of solar thermal systems, checking the glycol fluid, expansion vessel, pump station, controls and overall performance to keep your system operating efficiently.

    We generally recommend servicing every 2 to 5 years, depending on the manufacturer’s guidance and the age of the system. Regular servicing helps maximise efficiency and identify potential issues before they become costly repairs.

    Reduced hot water performance, warning lights, unusual pump noises, pressure loss, leaking fluid or unexpectedly high energy bills can all indicate that your system should be inspected by an engineer.
