Solar panels

I kind of mentioned it when I was talking about the heating, but the solar hot water panels are now connected up and generating heat. They were installed some time ago but have been covered up until now - and not connected to anything. They have raised the tank (2000 liters) by a few degrees each day it looks like. There were about 4 hours today that it was heating for (it was cloudy in the morning so startd at midday). The tank has been settling down and all coming to an equal temperature so we will see more clearly as time goes on. Of course at the moment we are not using any heat from it.
We hope to get the radiators working for a test run next week.
Free (ok not free - pre paid) heat!
