Make the most of 'going green' with grants to help cut fuel bills through solar hot water heating

With the cost of living on the rise, the economic climate at an all-time low and ongoing uncertainty about the security and availability of fuel, there has never been a better time for energy conscious individuals to consider money-saving changes that will benefit them in the short-term and for many years to come.

The East Riding of Yorkshire Council is offering all homeowners within the relevant area a 600 grant towards the cost of installing solar hot water heating.

But although the fantastic scheme is not means-tested and therefore open to everyone, it’s important people contact Solarwall as soon as possible, because all works must be completed by the end of March.

Further to this, thanks to the Department of Energy and Climate Change, grants are also available towards the cost of other renewable technologies, such as 400 for solar hot water heating systems.

Together, these initiatives mean people can claim 1,000 against the cost of installation in their home, meaning “going green” is excellent not only for the environment but their wallet, too.

All Solarwall’s solar thermal hot water heating systems have a 20-year panel guarantee and a 35-plus year life expectancy.

The company also offers the inclusive service of “within roof” fittings, which is done by taking away existing tiles and putting new solar panels into the roof’s plane, putting it under less weight strain. The finish is much more aesthetically pleasing than systems left sitting on top. The savings are great, too. Once installed, solar hot water heating systems start repaying the installation cost straight away, generating a considerable amount of the domestic water required.

Solarwall has more than 30 years’ experience installing cavity wall, solid wall, loft insulation and renewable technologies and carries out free, no-obligation surveys.

Contact them today to find out more about reducing your hot water costs by up to 70 per cent – that’s up to 20 per cent off your annual fuel bill.
