Greening up.
In our previous home we lived a fairly green life with air source heat pump, solar panels and organic food from the garden. No such pattern in our present house. But yesterday we started to improve the situation by getting solar panels fitted to the south side of the roof. I was looking forward to the scaffolding going up, thinking that it would give me easy access to inaccesible parts of the wisteria and other rampaging growth. There is a lot of scaffolding in place, but, would you believe it, none of it is quite where I need it! The scaffolders are coming back today to take it all down.
Three panels here, with the wisteria just out of my reach!
Then a long run on the main body of the house.
And a final three panels at the far end. I'm hoping that the massive oak tree in our neighbours' garden will not cause us too many problems. It throws down a great deal of debris!

Solar panels would be very effective on our south-facing roof but we've always hesitated because our old meter and wiring would probably need replacing first.
ReplyDeleteAt our last place we reduced our electricity bills by half. We converted our old Aga to electricity when we totted up the payments and saw what a good deal it was.
DeleteGood idea to have solar panels installed. And isn't it typical that the scaffolding just does NOT go where you'd need it!
ReplyDeleteYour comment made me smile - yes, it is typically how things work out!
DeleteHello. I'm feeling Canford Cliffs area?
