Gables Goes Green

Here at the Gables Guest House in Lincoln we have "gone green" by having a 5.39kw solar pv array installed on our south facing roof which weather permitting and of course sunshine, will enable us to generate all our own electricity through the day and still leave plenty to export to the national grid

In addition to the pv array we have also installed solar thermal tubes which heat up our hot water to a very toasty 60 degrees thus negating our need to rely so heavily upon fossil fuels
More energy efficient ideas are due to come online in the next few months including energy saving key card locks for the bed room doors along with the instalation of a rain water harvesting system
Keep checking back for the latest developements on waht is happening at the Gables Guest House Lincoln
