KINGSPAN THERMOMAX SOLAR SYSTEMS


	Thermomax Evacuated Tubes

Green-house supplies a full range of Kingspan Thermomax Solar Systems for home and industrial heating. Kingspan Renewables was established in late summer 2007, when Kingspan Group plc acquired the Thermomax brand of solar vacuum tubes. Thermomax was the Solar Thermal market leader and originator of the respected heat pipe method, effectively creating solar hot water in northern climates.

New Part 'L' Building Regs

IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH BUILDING REGULATIONS FOR NEW DWELLINGS 10KWH PER M2 OF THE OF THE HEATING/HOT WATER MUST BE SUPPLIED BY RENEWABLES.

IN A TYPICAL 140M2 DWELLING, THIS CAN BE ACHIEVED USING A KINGSPAN SOLAR KIT COMPRISING OF 3M2 OF HP200 EVACUATED TUBES AND A 300L STAINLESS STEEL CYLINDER AT AN APPROXIMATE INSTALLED COST OF €5595 INC. VAT.

THIS CAN PROVIDE 70% OF YOUR HOT WATER REQUIREMENTS.

Solar Energy in the UK and Ireland

Solar energy in the UK and Ireland is far greater than most people imagine. In the summer, when items such as car bodies are often too hot to touch, we become aware of the sun's heat. However, even in the spring and autumn and on clear winter days we receive very useful amounts of solar energy. By tilting a surface to an angle the amount of solar radiation falling on it will be greater than that falling on a flat surface in this country. Fortunately, the average tilt of a house roof is about the optimum for receiving solar energy.

The average property requires approximately 3,000 kWh per year for domestic water heating.

The map shows the total average solar radiation falling on one square metre surface inclined at 30° to the horizontal, measured in kilowatt hours.

These figures bring out the remarkable fact that the amount of solar energy falling on the total roof area of an average house is many times that required to provide all its heating and hot water.

We must note that there is a large difference between the radiation available in the summer and that available in winter. Active solar heating systems will typically convert 40 to 50% of the solar energy falling on the solar collectors into useful heated water.

What Will Solar Contribute?

A Positive Environmental Impact

Burning fossil fuels produces vast quantities of carbon dioxide, a major contributor to global warming.

The average household with a Thermomax system installed can expect to generate approximately 2,256 kWh/year with zero emissions.

The diagram illustrates the amount of c02 produced by oil, gas and electricity to generate the equivalent 2,256 kWh.
