A complete step-by-step guide, Tapping the Sun covers all the elements of adapting a conventional domestic water heating system - from likely costs and equipment to basic mechanical principles and legal issues, it cuts right through the technical jargon and shows just how the changes can be made.
With energy savings of 1000 kilowatt hours (kWh) per year (translating to roughly £100), solar water heating is one of the best ways a household can help reduce global warming and preserve fossil fuel resources. And so many households can do it - there are currently over 42,000 solar water heating systems fitted in the UK. |
