Well dispite the snow the solar thermal panels were fitted today and they look great!      

Here you see the base plate being fixed.

                      

These are the panels fitted on top of the base plate and the tiles fitted around them.

The panels are integrated which means tiles have come off and the panels take on a more flush appearance thats easier on the eye.

Scaffold is required to carry out the work safely.

This hosehold can now enjoy many years of free hot water while helping to save the planet at the same time.
