New, enhanced flat-plate solar-thermal collectors from Potterton are designed for easier siting and installation on social housing and new-build schemes. All the company’s flat-plate solar kits for in-roof and on-roof applications have new configurations, improved mounting kits and better hydraulic connections.There is a choice of portrait and landscape collectors with areas of 2 and 2.5 m2.

Potterton has also introduced quick-fix on-roof mounting brackets and tool-free hydraulic connections to make installation quicker and easier. The collectors can also be fitted on A frames.

These collectors comprise a powder-coated grey aluminium frame sealed with a 3.2 mm light-textured low-iron glass cover and have been designed with increased performance in mind.
