I am looking at building a solar water heating system for domestic hot
water. I have 'Googled' and found quite a few good sites for DIY panels,
does anyone in this group have any good links to panel construction and
control systems?

Also has anyone (silly question!) done it and was it worth it.

I can but a system for about 2.5K but I would like to try to do some or
all of it myself.

Thanks.

Thanks for the input Group. The Navitron stuff looks good.

I want to use something on a barn conversion we might move to. Add more
insulation etc. is not an option as no loft etc. exists. The boiler is oil
fired but no indirect to HW tank so all HW is electric, E7 at night and full
price during the day. I can get to the tank from the roof line so I was
thinking solar HW would be helpful here.

I thing self build for possibly £1k might be worthwhile if we assume we will
stay for 10 years. Once installed the running costs are very low and almost
free of energy price rises.

.... or have I got me head in a dark place?

Thanks
Brian
