    Standard Chinese solar collector. They heat the water as do all solar thermal collectors. When I see "designed and certified for Northern European climate" I know the cost will be more than average for no actual thermal gain. Also I cannot see them on the MCS approved list so RHI may not be available (UK only).
    More important is the system design and installation as this will have a much bigger influence on effectiveness.

    Hi freddyuk,
    Thanks for your response. Yes they are Chinese solar. Does not necessarily mean is it bad solar though less efficient than EU made.
    What do you mean by :"I know the cost will be more than average for no actual thermal gain. ?
    thanks
