Frequently Asked Questions
How do Flat Panels Work?
Flat panels absorb solar energy which heats them. The solar panel controller uses a variable speed pump which pumps anti freeze from the bottom of the hot water cylinder and circulates heat down into the tank and heats the water.
How do solar panels create heat?
When solar energy hits the panel the short-wave radiation is converted to long-wave radiation creating heat.
Do we get enough sun?
Solar flat panels and solar tubes will work efficiently in the UK climate.
