Lifestyle
The T family moved in to their detached 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home seven years ago.
As a family, they are keen to educate the children on the importance of preserving the environment and recycle toys, clothes and all domestic waste.
They also use energy efficient light bulbs and recently upgraded their insulation and have installed under floor heating in their extension.
Energy usage
Mrs T said: "We would definitely recommend this system to anyone who is interested in solar water heating systems for their own home.
"In the middle of winter, we have already seen a saving of between £15-£25 per month on our fuel bills which is great news - there are lots of other places we can spend the money!"
* Savings since January 2011.
