solar heating for private houses where do i get info?

Answer 1

I found a few contractors on the internet, here's one.

It might also interest you to know that you must remain on the national grid, but any surplus energy you generate, the electric company is obliged to buy from you.

Even when it is overcast you can still generate usable power with current solar panel technology.

Answer 2

I recently done a course at Viessmann, a boiler manufacturer who also provide solar heating panels. The technician who worked for them advised us that they are basically a false economy. The amount of money the panels and the cost involved to install them would cost more than the long term savings you'd save on your heating bill. Assuming you live in the UK.

If you are still interested in green heating have a look into Heat Pumps which draw the heat directly from the ground ( again very expensive ), rather than solar panels, or solid fuel (wood pellets)burning central heating boilers.

Answer 3

Some info is here http://www.healthgoods.com/Education/Energy_Information/Renewable_Energy/heating_with_active_solar.htm

Any information on solar heating or solar energy can be found by doing a search for solar energy for your home, converting your home to solar energy, things like that.

Answer 4

The best bet would be to start with your local electricity or gas provider as many offer rebates and incentives for installation.
