 | | ROBINSON WILLEY INTRODUCES 'SOLARTWIN' SOLAR PANEL WATER HEATING SYSTEM
| | | Robinson Willey | | 13/12/2006 | | |
Against a backdrop of rising fuel prices and environmental concerns, leading gas and electric appliance manufacturer, Robinson Willey - in partnership with solar panel manufacturer, Solartwin - has once again demonstrated its ability to exploit exciting new market opportunities with the launch of a unique, efficient, environmentally-friendly and affordable solar panel water heating solution.
Suitable for both domestic properties and public sector premises such as schools and hospitals, just one Solartwin panel is capable of providing up to 70% of domestic hot water requirements - a substantial saving on ever-increasing hot water heating costs. For local authorities looking to reduce CO2 emissions and fuel poverty for their tenants, this system is particularly ideal.
Roof-mounted and easy to install - in most cases within one day - Solartwin features a pump that is uniquely solar-powered and self-regulating. This directs the control of water through the panel dependent upon the power of the sun and also eliminates any need for inefficient heat exchangers and anti-freezes, and the numerous costly and power-draining control peripherals normally associated with conventional solar water heating.
Solartwins' panels collect energy from the sun and work even in cloudy weather. No connection to mains electricity is required and in the event of a power cut, the panels still function. High environmental standards are also ensured as Solartwin's two main components - aluminium and elastomers - are both recyclable.
Commenting on the company's first venture into the market for water heating systems, RW's National Sales Manager, Grahame Lawson, said: 'The low capital costs of Solartwin, combined with increases in carbon-based fuels, make this form of water heating an economical and environmentally-friendly proposition for most households. For local authorities keen to reduce CO2 emissions, this system offers unrivalled opportunities.'
As Solartwin inhabits the roof and not the rooms of the home, space requirements are minimal and, in terms of aesthetics, the panels can be finished in a range of trim colours that blend unobtrusively with the
outside of the building. Robust in design, Solartwin requires minimum maintenance.
