I'm considering a double or triple glazed solar collector.
What size are glass sheets typically supplied at?
8*4'?
(will be adequately supported)
What sort of ballpark price would I pay for 10 sheets of 2/6 mm delivered?
Thanks.
Can't seem to find an answer online.



Alt.solar.thermal is good for this. In short I cant see any advantage
to triple glazing, which makes me question your design philosophies.
Are you using a mesh absorber? Is it for water or air? Are you using
any concentration?

For exterior use plain glass is liable to break. Wired or laminated
are better, though more money.
