WHY INSTALL
SOLAR THERMAL?
Solar thermal
technology is the most reliable, efficient and accessible form of renewable
energy available today and when combined with Grant's high-efficiency
Vortex Condensing Boiler, annual fuel bills can be dramatically reduced.
As solar water heating depends on radiation, not direct sunlight, it even
works on dull days. Installing Solar collectors can help reduce heating
bills by providing up to 70% of a household's domestic hot water requirements
per annum. Solar
thermal is also great for the environment, as it has no emissions.
WHY CHOOSE
SOLAR THERMAL HEATING?
Installing
a Solar Thermal system has many advantages for the homeowner. Apart from
reducing the amount of fossil fuels used, and the resultant savings in
annual fuel bills, the reduction in harmful emissions will help reduce
the long-term effects on the Earths climate. Unlike
other arrangements there is no need to install an air vent outside on
the roof and also no need for regular maintenance. The Grant Solar collectors
are the ‘Flat Plate’ type using 4mm thick ‘low Iron’
glass and a copper collector panel which has a special selective coating.
This construction maximises solar absorption whilst minimising reflection
by up to 95%. Grant Solar collectors can be installed on sloping roofs
using either an on-roof or in-roof mounting system and also on flat roofs
if required. Grant
Solar systems integrate easily with conventional water heating systems.
DOESN'T
SOLAR EQUIPMENT SPOIL THE LOOK OF A HOUSE?
Grant have
developed flatter and less obtrusive panels, which are available in two
colours - silver, for a more contemporary look, and bronze which blends
with most roof types on domestic dwellings. These two options ensure maximum
architectural design flexibility. There are various mounting options for
the panels, so siting should not present any problems.
