The Solartwin solar panel system is simply...

• A 2.82 square metre (net.) flat plate solar water heating collector panel on the roof or façade which collects solar energy and converts it to heat
• An "intelligent" solar energy powered water pump circulates water through flexible freeze tolerant Silicone rubber pipes which pass through the collector.
• The heated water is then delivered direct to hot water store consisting of either a standard vented cylinder or thermal store.

Solartwin installation also requires fewer technical skills. Only a single full skill is required in the installer: the skill of working on a roof. The need for plumbing skills is minimised although not completely removed since two simple "tee" connections need to be. The remainder of the plumbing involves simply laying and clipping flexible pipes. No mains electrical skills are needed whatsoever because the system runs on low voltage solar electricity.
