Solar panels - innovative solar energy hot water heating systems save energy and money. Solar power your washing and bathing with Solartwin's zero carbon solar thermal technology.Get a Solartwin installed

Solartwin's solar panel water heating system is simple, reliable yet affordable. Buy Solartwin to have your solar hot water produced environmentally, to save a quarter of a tonne, or more, of CO2 a year and energy savings of 30-70% on your annual hot water bills.

We can usually install your system in under a day, about half the time of traditional solar. Usually we do not even need have to replace your hot water cylinder, making installation hassle-free.

"DTI SMART" award for exceptionally green solar panels.Get Solartwin for commercial projects Redesigning solar from scratch, this Scottish engineer's invention avoids the problems of frozen pipes bursting in winter - by just letting them freeze - flexibly. Next - the deep green bit - we eliminated the environmental contradiction inherent in most conventional solar heating. This burns up mains electricity in order to deliver supposedly sustainable solar energy. Instead, Solartwin uses a clever 100% solar powered - zero carbon - solar electric pump. See us on youtube!

Active on social issues, we bank at the Co-Op, pass B&Q's rigorous quality and ethical audit. Supported good causes include: Ashton Hayes Zero Carbon Village, the Centre for Alternative Technology and Chester Catholic High School's Science Classroom for the Future.
