Roof-integrated Solar Thermal

Mr and Mrs Davidson wanted a solar hot water system that would perform well and look right on their home.

They were keen to use renewable energy, but didn’t want the system to feel like an obvious addition. The aim was to support hot water generation while keeping the character of the property intact.

aes renewables installed a 2-panel aes luminary 2.5 AR solar thermal system.

The aes luminary collector is designed to integrate neatly with the roof or sit discreetly above it, depending on the property. For this home, the roof-integrated design helped create a clean, understated finish.

The system was also chosen with long-term use in mind. Each panel needs no more than 3 m² of roof space, and the system comes with a 10-year warranty and an expected operating life of more than 25 years.

The finished installation gives the Davidsons renewable hot water without compromising the appearance of their home.

The solar thermal system helps support the household’s hot water needs, reducing reliance on conventional fuel throughout the year. Because the collectors sit neatly within the roof, the system feels like part of the property.

“We were massively impressed by the professionalism and efficiency of the entire team. Everyone involved was knowledgeable, helpful and courteous and we are thrilled with the end result.” – Mr and Mrs Davidson

Solar thermal is a good option for homeowners who want renewable hot water without using a large amount of roof space.

For Mr and Mrs Davidson, the roof-integrated aes luminary system delivered the balance they wanted: reliable hot water generation, a neat finish and a design that respects the look of their home.
