Solar Technology has vastly improved over the years SedgemoorSolar.co.uk supply greatly improved efficiency Solar panels for the UK, thus making it a much more viable solution for many of us now.

The market is increasing as consumers realise it is not that expensive and are looking at the future Energy price hikes and climate change.

Solar energy is the cleanest and most inexhaustible of all known energy sources. Solar radiation is the heat, light and other radiant energy that is emitted from the sun. The sun's energy, although plentiful, has been hard to directly harness until recently.

Solar water heater converts solar energy into thermal energy, then heat the water step by step. The beauty of this system is it does not create pollution or harmful emissions, and is extremely economical - the fuel (sunshine) is free! Plus, they are environmentally friendly.

Until now, solar panels were not particularly popular in the UK due to their low efficiencies during the spring, autumn and winter months. Classic solar panels (flat plate collectors) work equally well as radiators - and therefore unless ambient temperature is high, heat losses are considerable. Flat plate collectors, despite their poor performance at UK latitudes, have remained the panel of choice until NOW! due to their low cost, and DIY-suitability. However, We are now able to offer much Higher Efficiency vacuum tube collectors at similar prices to flat plate collectors if not lower compared to some, and ease of installation.

To take full advantage of these heaters, you should ideally have an un- shaded, south-facing location (a roof, for example) on your property, although they can be utilised at West or East facing roofs by installing one panel on each side also free standing frames for Flat roofs etc. there are many configurations we will advise on survey the best options for you. This type of Solar water heater is now extremely popular in many areas of the world, and are now becoming much more popular in the UK, due to their high efficiency.
