In a drive to promote renewable energy products, merchant Ridgeons has installed a solar energy working display at one of its key branches. The display is designed to demonstrate solar gain and the associated energy savings.

The display at the company’s Cromwell Road branch in south Cambridge features the Grant solar thermal range which is designed to generate up to 70% of the annual hot water requirements of a typical home. Product Group Manager Dave Jordan says: “Solar power is a proven technology which has had relatively limited take up so far in the UK but we believe that it is on the verge of taking off.

House builders are under government pressure to reduce the energy consumption of new homes and householders are generally more interested in new technologies that can help them save money whilst reducing their carbon footprint. We are looking to promote solar power as part of our renewable energy offer and with a working display we can more easily demonstrate its benefits.”

Ridgeons is a major stockist for both Grant Sahara and Aurora solar kits and Wolf Solar Technology heating packs. The company also stocks open vented and unvented cylinders designed for solar heating systems. The full range is featured in Ridgeons’ Plumbing & Heating guide which also gives guidelines on cylinder sizing.

As part of its service to installers, Ridgeons can also provide assistance with system design offering bespoke solar packs.
