For a solar thermal system to work to its optimum capacity a south facing roof is ideal. However, it is still possible to install a solar water heating system if your home has an east-west orientation by increasing the area of panel installed. One option is to mount one panel on the east orientation to collect heat in the morning, with another panel on the west orientation to collect the heat in the afternoon. It is not advisable to place solar panels on a north-facing roof.

Solar Flat Plate Panels

The MD Energy solar panel is a flat plate, aluminium cased, low iron tempered glass unit containing copper risers with copper plate, 'tinox' coated absorber, ultrasonically welded to give a full covering of copper within the unit.

The glazing is tested to BS 12975

Can be mounted 'On Roof' or 'In roof'

'In-roof' installation comprises the solar panel which is encased in a cassette unit that is mounted directly on to the roof battens. The solar panel/cassette unit is then tiled into the roof to give a weather tight installation maintaining the integrity of the roof – this type of installation normally takes place on new build properties.

'On-roof' installation, designed for fitting to existing properties, means that the solar panel is mounted on top of the existing roof tiles, on brackets that penetrate through the roof and are bolted to the rafters to ensure a secure fixing. (A variety of fixing brackets is available to suit all types of roof tiles including concrete, slate and clay peg).

Solar Evacuated Tube System

The higher efficiency of evacuated solar heating tubes mean less area is covered on the roof by the solar heating panels - a desirable feature appreciated by most customers.  Having less solar heating panel area on the roof reduces the fluid content of the solar heating system enabling quicker response to solar radiation. Vacuum is the best possible insulation for a solar heating panel. It safeguards the collector from moisture, condensation and pollutants - resulting in improved durability and all-year-round performance.

MD Solar flat plate panels and evacuated tube systems are guaranteed for a period of 10 years of operational use.
