Hi,
I'm thinking of installing solar panels and a non-vented tank, have looked at Worcester bosh green sky sys.
Has anyone use this system if so any good?.... or can you recommend any other

Also looking at Viessmann Mick?
In my humble opinion solar is a waste of your money. We like fitting them though, if a customer can't see the nonsense of a 30-200 yr payback. |

Thanks for that, because of fuel price increases thought it would give me some long term insurance.

Sory, I'm a bit late with my comment.
Payback could be infinite (ie. never), if loss of interest on capital plus future maintenance/replacement is taken into account.
Also having paid out the capital. the monies are then not available for contingencies.
It concerns me that Goverments of all persuations are 'pushing' the solar without much worry about the cost!
