The future of Scotland’s energy provision lies in our ability to harness the renewable resources all around us - to acknowledge the importance of tackling climate change head on and to accept our responsibilities as business people that sustainable energy is the way of the future.

Clearly, legislation will enforce you, our trade partners, to use renewable energy sources in all new development projects. As a result, we have introduced a specialist division that will

work with you to provide renewable energy solutions that are efficient, economical to use and will meet the most stringent of energy standards.

Our detailed research of the proposed legislation and of the products and technologies available in the market can now be translated into practical, value for money solutions for you and your customers.

Vidaco is committed to providing high quality, energy efficient and environmentally responsible products

Our knowledge and technical resources are yours. We will work with your in-house plumbers & electricians providing specialist support to their installations. We can design, supply and install a range of pioneering, low and zero carbon technologies (LZCT) to suit very specific housing specifications; renewable technologies that have proven themselves in real world situations. They’ve been tried, tested and verified, to make sure they are the very best, by far.

Our specific renewable systems include:

  • Solar Thermal
  • Ground Source Heat Pumps
  • Air Source Heat Pumps
  • Biomass Boilers
  • Low Nox Condensing Boilers
  • Underfloor Heating

We provide a fully managed service – a one stop solution from concept to completion, helping to add great value to your properties. Ahead of the competition and in partnership with Vidaco, you now have the opportunity to future proof your homes by providing high standards of sustainable energy performance and efficiency that will be enjoyed for decades.

Sustainable energy that doesn’t cost the earth

Solar Thermal Systems:

Optimum energy efficiency – environmentally friendly energy solutions

Solar technology is quite simple and very effective. Solar panels absorb sunlight and convert it into heat by transferring the solar radiation to the heat transfer fluid in connecting pipes. This heat is then pumped to a hot water cylinder through a heat exchanger, providing a reliable source of hot water. The heating fluid is returned to the system for reheating and so the cycle continues.

Well Engineered Technology

Solar Collector Panel
Absorbs all available solar radiation through flat or tubular panels
Heat Regulator & Pump
Solar heat is absorbed by the heat transfer fluid and pumped to the hot water cylinder
Piping System
Holds the heat transfer fluid, carrying the heat to the hot water cylinder
Heat Exchanger Unit
Transfers the heat to the water Dual Coil Water Cylinder Hot water is pumped and stored ready for use

Solar systems can be very effective both as standalone products and when working in parallel with other systems. At Vidaco we can provide a range of the latest solar thermal systems to suit all applications, providing the perfect integration of hot water and central heating systems from a single source.
