Back to top2) What Is Solar Thermal?
Solar thermal, also known as solar water heating, is a renewable energy system that uses the sun’s energy to heat water for domestic or commercial use. The system includes solar collectors—typically mounted on your roof—that absorb solar radiation and convert it into heat. This heat is then transferred to a hot water cylinder, supplying warm water for use in showers, taps, and even supplementing your central heating system.
It’s particularly beneficial in properties with high hot water demand or where lowering gas or electric usage is a priority. With the rising cost of utilities, installing a solar thermal system is a smart, future-proof investment.
