Dimplex introduces Solar PV packs
Dimplex Renewables has launched a range of solar photo-voltaic packages based on polycrystalline modules and containing everything required for installation on light-commercial and residential buildings. These kits include G83-approved inverter, roof-mounting system, cabling, isolators and generation meter. The hardware is MCS accredited, so the kits qualify for feed-in tariffs when properly installed by an MCS-accredited installer.
Designed for new-build and retrofit projects, the kits have low-profile roof mounts that protrude less than 200 mm above the roof, so installed systems are classed as permitted development in England and Scotland and do not require planning permission in non-conservation areas.
The 1.6 m2 modules can deliver 230 W with an efficiency of 14.2%. They are supplied with a product warranty of five years and offer guaranteed 95% performance for five years and 80% performance for 25 years.
Dimplex offers 4-day training courses approved by Logic Certification and there is a finance scheme to spread the cost over a period of years.
