Solar Hot water in the UK
Solar hot water systems (solar thermal) are an easy way of harnessing the free natural energy from the sun all year round. They can even work on cloudy days through diffused radiation. You don’t have to have a south facing roof, the panels can also be fitted on brackets in the garden, onto fences and walls. They can be mounted in roof, or on roof. The systems are robust and require very little maintenance, an ideal way to get free energy.
At Greener Heat we have looked at a variety of manufacturers and a various designs of collectors for solar thermal panels and have decided that Tisun offer the most to our customers. The quality of the product and the guarantees that Tisun offer to back up their claims results in an outstanding performance that will last. Not only will you save money on your fuel bills, but you will save on the low maintenance.
How do Solar Thermal Panels work?
The panels work by radiation from the sun in the form of solar radiation heating a liquid in the panel which is then exchanged into a storage tank ready for use. This even works on cloudy days with energy being absorbed from diffused radiation. Tisun's specially designed panels and storage tank ensure you get the most from the sun. All solar panels will only work if the heat in the collector is greater than that in the storage tank. Tisun's system is designed so the hot water tank is layered, and the hot water is injected in at the correct layer, this allows for a more responsive system and one that can utilise more from the sun's energy.
