HBS Solarwarm’s new solar panels provide free year-round energy savings.

HBS Solarwarm is an integral part of an accredited heating and ventilation company specialising in providing quality, solar powered hot water and heating systems for family homes. Our latest systems provide up to 60% savings on annual domestic hot water bills, and unlike most solar systems, can also contribute towards the cost of running your central heating. But that’s not all; HBS Solarwarm’s new evacuated tube solar panels work efficiently all year round - saving you money and energy - even in the winter and on overcast days.

HBS Solarwarm’s engineers ensure you get the maximum saving from your system.

Every solar heating system we install is individually configured by our engineers to get the maximum saving from your investment in solar energy technology, but because we are heating and ventilation specialists, you also get the benefit of an analysis of the efficiency of your heating system as a whole. And at installation, unlike many solar companies, we also take the opportunity to flush your heating system through and service your boiler - free of charge. This process evacuates the collected debris and limescale that builds in radiators, boilers and pipes, reducing efficiency, and costing you money. In this way, we ensure that not only is your new solar equipment operating to full capacity, but your heating system as a whole is ‘clean’ and optimised for energy saving.

Installing an HBS Solarwarm solar system can extend the life of your boiler.

HBS Solarwarm solar heating systems can usually work with your existing fossil fuel boiler so that on summer days in bright sunshine your boiler may not have to be used at all to heat your water. However, during the shorter winter days when the sun’s light output is reduced, your boiler will boost the water temperature inside your solar cylinder taking the temperature up from where the solar gain left off, to the desired level. In this way, your fossil fuel boiler becomes an auxiliary means to help heat your home and domestic hot water, thereby reducing the daily load on your boiler, and extending its overall life expectancy.

HBS Solarwarm guarantees the best price for your solar installation.

At HBS Solarwarm, our price promise is straightforward. We don’t run special offers, we don’t offer false ‘show home’ subsidies, and we don’t offer to pay your VAT. But we do promise the best possible price for your installation every time - and we guarantee it.

In the unlikely event that you do find exactly the same equipment and installation at a lower price, we guarantee to match the price by reducing our quote before we install your system, or by refunding the difference you have paid for up to one month after your installation. All we ask is that you provide us with an original copy of our competitor’s quote, so that we can compare it with our own and advise you whether you have a legitimate claim for a reduction.

Save 10% off VAT with an HBS Solarwarm solar energy installation.

The VAT on solar heating systems varies. DIY solar panel systems carry 15% VAT. A solar panel system installed by a professional installer such as HBS Solarwarm carries just 5% VAT – saving you an amazing 10% on VAT.

Reduce your home’s carbon dioxide emissions and help save the planet.

Solar energy is a sustainable source of energy. This means that it is an energy source which can be replenished within a human lifetime and which causes no long-term damage to the environment. Extended use of sustainable energy sources aids the conservation of other non-renewable energy sources such as fossil fuels. Solar energy technologies, like HBS Solarwarm’s solar heating and hot system, capture the sun’s freely available light in a transfer liquid, the heat generated by the sun’s light is transferred into a solar cylinder where is used to service domestic hot water and heating requirements.

The Energy Saving Trust estimates that a typical home will lower its carbon emissions by between 325-645 kilograms a year using solar power to heat domestic hot water – depending on the fossil fuel being replaced. With HBS Solarwarm the carbon emissions reduction is higher still, as HBS Solarwarm’s solar technologies also contribute towards heating in the home.
