However, they\u2019ll be very effective if they\u2019re on southwest or southeast facing rooftops as well. Typically you\u2019ll want one or two collectors to provide heated water for every person in your home. Also ensure they\u2019ll be no shade covering the system at certain points in the day, or your energy generation will be limited. <\/p>\n<p><strong>How much hot water will be produced?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During the warmer months of April to September you can expect the solar system to provide you with most of your hot water needs. On top of this, there\u2019ll be a serious contribution in the colder months too. <\/p>\n<p>The Energy Saving Trust found that over the course of a year, solar thermal should provide you with 60% of the hot water you need. <\/p>\n<p>The amount of hot water will depend on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How much hot water you actually use. Of course, the more you use, the greater the benefit of solar water will be<\/li>\n<li>How proactive you are at working with your system. Solar water doesn\u2019t work on a timer<\/li>\n<li>How large your water cylinder is. Most cylinders will accommodate a day or so hot water<\/li>\n<li>The level of insulation you currently have. The more insulation, the more heat that\u2019ll be retained.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With solar water heating there is a huge range in the level of performance, as identified by the Energy Saving Trust. Some systems would produce 98% whilst others just 9%. It\u2019s important to ask all of these questions when speaking to an installer to avoid all the pitfalls. <\/p>\n<p>When well installed and properly used, solar heating can be brilliant. You\u2019ll make great savings on your bills and earn a guaranteed income for seven years with the Government\u2019s payment incentive. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Facts &amp; Figures You&#8217;ll Love To Share <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>[tweetable alt=&#8221;&#8221;]With solar PV you&#8217;ll generate free electricity whilst earning a lucrative earning with the Government&#8217;s feed-in tariff.[\/tweetable]<\/li>\n<li>[tweetable alt=&#8221;&#8221;]Solar thermal panels help to heat hot water and benefit from the Renewable Heat Incentive payment for seven years.[\/tweetable]<\/li>\n<li>[tweetable alt=&#8221;&#8221;]Solar panels will last for 25 years and more, providing decades of savings and earnings and helping to avoid the National Grid rates.[\/tweetable]<\/li>\n<li>[tweetable alt=&#8221;&#8221;]Energy prices have doubled since 2004 and solar panels offer an escape from the clutches of the UK&#8217;s large energy suppliers.[\/tweetable]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solar water heating is a fantastic renewable technology that\u2019ll help to reduce your bills by providing free energy.
