Viral infections generally must run their course, with treatment aimed at easing symptoms and providing some relief while you’re sick. Sometimes, antiviral medications are prescribed for specific infections.
Choose brands offering the highest efficiency rates, translating into maximum green energy production per square foot installed.
Select brands that offer comprehensive warranty coverage, including weatherproofing assurances and guaranteed minimum performance levels over time.
These factors will help guide your decision-making process, allowing you to choose the best-suited solar roof tiles that fulfill your individual needs effectively while contributing positively to global climate change mitigation efforts.

Comparing Solar Tiles with Conventional Solar Panels
Solar tiles and conventional solar panels are like the sun and the moon – both have their own shine. Let’s cast some illumination on the disparities between these two options.
Cost Comparison
When it comes to cost, solar tiles may make your wallet sweat a little more than conventional panels. But hey, they add value to your property by seamlessly blending into your roof. Conventional solar panels may appear obtrusive and out of place.
Efficiency Analysis
Size matters when it comes to efficiency. Conventional panels have more surface area, so they tend to be more efficient. But don’t underestimate the power of solar tiles or PV slates. They may be smaller, but when installed across a large area, they can still pack a solar punch.
Aesthetics & Building Regulations Compliance
If you want your roof to look as pretty as a picture, go for solar tiles. They blend seamlessly and even pass the strictest building regulations. Conventional panels may not win any beauty contests, but they do produce more electricity. It’s a balancing act between appearance and capacity.
Making The Right Choice For Your Home
Selecting the right solar roof covering for your house can be an intimidating job, with so many options accessible in today’s market. From to Solecco Tiles, and not forgetting our very own standard 500×250 PV slate unit, each option has its unique benefits and drawbacks. When selecting a solar roofing solution, here are some points to bear in mind.
Budget Constraints
The cost of installing solar roof tiles or panels is an important factor to consider. While conventional solar panels might seem more affordable initially, remember that integrated solar roofs offer superior aesthetics which could add value to your property in the long run. It’s also worth noting that while products like Tesla’s Solarglass may have a higher upfront cost than other options such as Solecco Tiles or our PV slates, they work seamlessly into any budget without compromising on quality.
Aesthetic Preferences
Your aesthetic preferences play a significant role in determining what type of solar product would best suit your needs. If you prefer traditional-looking roofs, then natural 500×250 slates with integrated PV slates that combine seamlessly into the existing design might be ideal for you. On the other hand, if modern designs appeal more to you, infinity solar roofs from brands like Tesla could be just what you’re looking for.
Building Regulations In Conservation Areas
If your property lies within a conservation area or is listed under building regulations due to its historical significance, it becomes even more crucial to choose carefully between different types of attractive solar roofs available on the market today – ensuring they meet all necessary guidelines and requirements set by local authorities while still providing a huge power output through their innovative technology.
Suitability For Different Types Of Buildings
Different buildings require different solutions based on their architectural style and structural integrity. Aluminium roof covering combined with lightweight yet durable PV slates can work well for older properties needing additional support, whereas newer builds might benefit from sleeker designs offered by companies like Tesla, who specialize in creating visually appealing integrated systems capable of generating substantial amounts of clean energy efficiently over time – thus helping homeowners make considerable savings on their electricity bills year after year.
Choosing the right solar roofing solution for your home can be overwhelming, but considering factors like budget constraints, aesthetic preferences, building regulations in conservation areas, and suitability for different types of buildings will help you make an informed decision. While cost is important to consider, integrated solar roofs offer superior aesthetics that can add value to your property in the long run. Additionally, different buildings require different solutions based on their architectural style and structural integrity.
We recommend choosing the lightest grey *6mm thick* slates available in the range that you prefer. The best matches we have seen to date are with the Cupa 12, Siga 37, Siga 39, Gallegas 37 & Gallegas 39, and the Cupa H3. Other blue-grey slates including Welsh Cwt y Bugail (not Heather Blue), Cornish Delabole and La Concha will also blend well. Natural slates with the words dark grey or black in their descriptions will contrast quite strongly with PV Slates.
Yes, the PV Slate received MCS accreditation in 2018. Contact us to discuss why this might be important for your project.
Each PV Slate weighs between 3.0-3.9kg depending on model. This means it weighs less than the natural slates it replaces so does not increase loading on the property or require any remedial strengthening, which is good news for listed buildings.
PV slate was specifically designed to help people in all restricted planning areas gain planning permission. Check the details with your local planning authority and we’re happy to assist where we can.
PV Slate can be fitted to pitches typically as low as 22.5 degrees. However, contact us and we will advise on the correct PV Slate product for your roof pitch and location.
As PV Slate is an electrical product, there needs to be a border of two natural slates around the edges of the roof and any roof windows. We can make passive “infill” PV Slates to complete the surround for a perfect finish and a roof that no one would believe was solar.
