spoke to someone about installing this and was told "far to expensive there are cheaper,better ways to do this"

Heating and no damp from the sun (chemical free) - sounds good to me. Solar panels for hot water is not really the cheapest option when you install it but a lot of us have them and heating costs are much higher than hot water costs.

I would be interested.

How much are they?
I think I understand the way it works, but in the description it says "warm dry air", and I can't see how the air is dried.

Solarventi have a website here haven't read it yet but it seems to have a lot of info. Looking at the prices the most expensive retail price £2852 for a unit that produces 1.33kwh of warm air energy and hot water. The next one down is around £1337 which is warm air only and according to the blurb is sufficient for a property un to 140m2.

Not sure how efficient this would be in the winter months when you would need it most.

I have looked into this throughly only last week,to enable me to explain to how it works to clients who have ventilation problems, but it is "choc para" for a villa sized kit and there are several add ons with it, obviously it will not stop or cure rising damp. Also I feel there is little benefit, if people living out here full time are looking at it a source of free heat and starting price for 2 bed property is 1305ytl(£560) a panel for a large villa is over 3 metres at 3505 ytl(£1505) inc roof mounting kit. If however anybody is interested in more details, please mail me and I will point you in the right direction.

Hi all, Following on this thread, Does anyone living there know how you can stop the rising damp. We have followed through the usual channels, like having damp proof materials being inserted into the walls inside and outside, painting with special paint, and so on. Some people we know have had these treatments done, and to be honest there damp is now worse than ever. No offense to anyone in business out there. But is there truly a solution or what. Would love to know. Lol Mary
