Home owners and landlords can receive a grant of up to 5000 or 10000 to help cover the cost of installing a solar thermal system. You may be eligible for the Green Homes Grant scheme up to 10,000 or for the Renewable Heat Incentive which currently pays 21.09 pence / KW/hr, approximately 1200 - 3000 back over the next 7 years.
The 'Feed-in Tariff' for Solar PV is no longer available for new installations. Based in St Albans and serving London, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire, we fit high quality, efficient evacuated tubes, flat panels and specialist solar cylinders. These cylinders are are compatible with most boilers, biomass, wood burners, electric heaters or heat pumps.
Though we are independent and able to install all makes of equipment, our preferred brand is Viessmann. We have found their equipment of high quality and reliability. We do also install equipment from other manufacturers, depending on the project requirements.

Services
We are a Microgeneration cerfitication scheme registered independent solar installation and repair company based in St Albans.
We offer a friendly, professional installation service without the usual hefty mark-ups and pressure sales.
We believe this technology is part of the future of domestic energy and wish to share our enthusiasm.
We have been interviewed by The Guardian newspaper in relation to the Green Homes Grant Scheme.

At this point, we understand that existing applications will be processed and vouchers already issued remain valid and work can be completed.
The Green Homes Grant scheme allows home owners and landlords to apply for a voucher for up to 2/3rd of the cost of a solar thermal installation.
The maximum value of a voucher is 5000.
Low income households can receive a voucher up to 10000.
The home owner/landlord must pay a contribution of 1/3rd of the total cost of the works directly to the installer.

Our solar thermal panels consist of evacuated tube collectors (flat plate panels can also be installed).
These are attached to a southerly facing roof.
Water and a special antifreeze mixture is the pumped through the panel, where it gets heated by the sun.
The heat is then transferred by a high efficiency coil in a specialist solar cylinder heating the water (the boiler can be used to top up the water temperature if required).
The panels fall into two main categories: flat panels and evacuated tube panels.

Unless you already have a twin coil cylinder, we will most likely replace your hot water cylinder with a high efficiency twin coil cylinder.
The solar panel will transfer the heat to the bottom of the cylinder.
When required, your boiler will top up the heat in the solar cylinder, therefore ensuring that there is always enough hot water.
We install a solar pump station to transfer the heat collected from the solar panel into the hot water cylinder coil.
This is controlled by an electronic variable controller that switches on the pump only when the temperature of the panel is greater than that of the water cylinder.

A typical system costs from * for a 2-3 person household if a suitable cylinder is already in place.
This can vary substantially, depending how you currently heat your water and how much you use and how much sunshine there is in a given year.
We would be happy to look at you case in detail.
A solar water heating system is one of few home improvements that may not only add value to a property, but also save you money over the years.
You may be entitled to a Government RHI payment if you have a solar water heating system installed.
