LPG condensing boiler & solar thermal system
Today’s cost-effective solution
Solar thermal heating systems are the most popular renewable energy product on the market today, meeting today’s building regulations cost-effectively. They utilise the sun’s radiation – the most abundant energy source available to us, to heat a household’s hot water, from the shower to the dishwasher.
Combining an LPG condensing boiler with solar thermal
water heating dramatically reduces energy bills and improves the home’s sustainability, without expensive installation or maintenance costs. Calor LPG is the fuel of choice for non-mains gas areas, with the lowest carbon emissions of any fossil fuel available in rural areas.*

How does it work?
Solar thermal flat plate collectors or evacuated tubes are positioned on the building’s roof. They absorb energy from sunlight, and in some cases, daylight. This energy is transferred into a fluid, which is circulated around the system, heating up to 50% of the home’s hot water, from the washing machine to the bath.

Did you know?
Solar panels can provide effective energy even on grey days. For optimum benefits flat plate collectors should be installed on a south-facing roof, angled between 35° and 45°. Evacuated tubes can be installed on a pitched or flat roof as well as building façades.
