Renewable Heating page 2

A typical well-sized solar panel system should provide around 50-70% of the annual domestic hot water requirements of a home, representing a very worthwhile saving on hot water heating costs.

Greenskies solar panels have been designed to complement existing heating systems which use a store of hot water in a cylinder. The existing cylinder is exchanged for one with two heat exchanger coils: one from the boiler in the property and a second from the solar panels.

Worcester Greenskies solar panels form part of a system which remains separate from the boiler heating system. The panels are mounted on a surface which is selected for its exposure to sunlight and usually connected, via pipe work, to the lower coil of a twin-coil solar cylinder.
