    Hi, we're looking to build a new milking parlour and want to install solar panels to heat the water required. Can anyone recommend a supplier to do this in Tipp/Waterford area? It's not that different really from a house installation so I don't see why someone who hasn't done a milking parlour before couldn't do it. I have the daily water requirements from the parlour, so I can size it based on this, and the fact that we won't get enought hot water all year round won't be a huge issue as we won't want it Nov-Feb anyway, or at least not in as large a quantity. What do I need to look for when selecting a supplier? The other thing that we're looking at now is a windmill to provide electricity. Now I personally think that this may not be worth it, but my brother doesn't agree so I'm looking into it, anyone know where I should start?

    Your site would need to be surveyed for wind turbines as not all areas are suitable, its not as simple as just putting up a turbine.

    Ive sent you a PM
