Fixing solar thermal systems around Newbury

Around Newbury, solar thermal systems can be on anything from town houses to rural homes on the North Wessex Downs. As a system ages, faults tend to show up in a familiar way: the water is not as hot as it was, or the controller shows an error.

The usual causes are a failed pump, a loss of pressure, a dead expansion vessel or a sensor giving the wrong reading. Old glycol fluid is another common problem. Once it breaks down, it can damage the pump and other parts.

Outside, we check the collectors, the pipework and its insulation. Birds and the weather can damage insulation on exposed roof runs, which lets heat escape before it reaches your cylinder.

We start by finding out why the system has stopped working well, then fix that fault. If several parts are near the end of their life, we will explain the choices, from a repair to a wider refit. You decide what makes sense for your home.
