A couple of years ago, I couldn't find DIY solar water heating kits (you could build your own manky system Blue Peter style, giving the satisfaction of true DIY but little else, I fancy, or pay someone a huge amount to install one).
Having revisited the scene I find kits are now available eg:
I would surmise savings in the region £100-200/year (guess) giving a payback time of 10+years.
Does anyone have experience of such kits, with regard to savings, and this kit in particular, with regard to its quality?
