I can honestly say that it has been a great pleasure to install
solar thermal systems. Every customer, without exception, has been
more pleased with the performance of the system than I would have expected.
In May 2008 we installed a solar thermal system for a retired engineer
in East Devon During June he kindly recorded the weather on each day
and also took the temperature of the water in his hot water cylinder
at 9 a.m., 12 p.m. and 5 p.m. There were only two days in the whole
month that he could record as clear blue sky but, nevertheless, he
only had to turn his boiler on for one hour on one day for hot water.
The solar system met all his hot water needs throughout the remainder
of the month.
We are always pleased to give prospective customers advice on whether
a solar thermal system would be appropriate for them and we believe
that, in the future, the popularity of solar thermal systems will grow
rapidly.
