Solar Thermal and Solar PV: Southampton
Eco2Solar conducted a dual installation of solar thermal and solar PV to this large property overlooking the English Channel near Southampton. The evacuated tube collectors provide the customer with approximately 70% of their hot water throughout the year. The Strebel tubes are 95% efficient and work using a vacuum to retain the heat they absorb. The solar PV system runs across the main roof of the house above the two gables. The Kyocera poly-crystalline modules were chosen because of their high efficiencies and ability to fully maximise the...

Eco2Solar installed a solar thermal and solar PV system to this attractive, modern house in the Malvern Hills. The customer was concerned about the aesthetics of the systems, and we were able to offer Rotex Flat Plate collectors which are built into the fabric of the roof. This was a strong selling point for Dr Burden, who preferred these collectors to the usual evacuated examples. Eco2Solar installed a 1.85 kWp Sharp mono-crystalline solar PV system at the same time. The PV system will give Dr Burden a guaranteed tax free income for 25 years,...

Eco2Solar installed this Sharp system to a converted bungalow in Pedmore, Stourbridge. The property has a dormer window protruding from the roof pitch, and the space above provided the perfect location. The dormer window partially hides the array from view at ground level decreasing its intrusion on the houses’ appearance.
