National central heating company, Blazes, launches renewable energy technology

April 19, 2011 - PRLog -- Blazes Heating is doing its bit to reduce Britain’s carbon footprint by adding solar energy to its range of central heating products.

The national central heating franchise now offers ‘Solar Photovoltaic’ renewable technology – which converts daylight into electricity.

The new technology offers free electricity, tax free cash income and protects against rising energy prices.

Stuart Law, of Blazes, said: “With solar energy you can cut your bills and carbon footprint. You can expect to reduce your water bill between £50 and £85 per year as well saving up to 570kg of CO2 missions.

“Solar heating systems also require little maintenance – although the panels should be checked regularly.”

Central heating experts at Blazes offer a free assessment of your home’s earning potential.

Customers can generate their own electricity and earn tax – free income by installing a Solar Photovoltaic system on your roof.

The ‘Government Clean Energy Cashback Scheme’ means people can receive money for energy generated.

This is known as The Feed-in Tariff in which the government pays solar energy users 43.3p for every hW you generate.

This means electricity you generate and use in your home reduces your bill by 50 per cent saving you, on average around £450 a year. The more you use, the more you save.

Blazes offers a variety of central heating solutions.

The most obvious alternative to traditional central heating systems is renewable energy technologies – accepted in most countries for many years.

In contrast to using central heating boilers, ‘close-coupled’ SWH systems have the storage tank placed horizontally – mounted the solar collectors on the roof. Since hot water naturally rises into the tank, no pumping is required.

Pump-circulated systems are placed on the floor below the collectors. The pump moves hear or water between the two.

Although SWH systems are designed to give store heat for the year, in winter sometimes there may not be sufficient heat to deliver hot water, gas or electric boosters is normally.
