Whilst the PVt Solar Panels are designed to beinstalled by your roofing contractor in conjunctionwith the standard battens used for the surroundingtile, the electrical connection should be undertakenby an M.C.S. (Microgeneration Certification Scheme)accredited PV installer.

The clever one-piece interlocking designmakes the PVt quick and easy to install. Please refer to the Installation Guide on theImerys website

1 Slot together PV tiles

2 Screw to batten

3 Push-fit cables

NB – Grid connection requires M.C.S.accredited installation. For more information,please contact Imerys Roof Tiles.

Please note that the roof tiles which immediatelysurround each PVt panel should be mechanically fixedto their supporting batten.

Typical batten for the HP10 tile: 25x50mm, nail size 50x3mm

The ecological advantages of solar power – a clean,renewable energy source with a high level of reliability –are widely appreciated.

Integrated Imerys solar panels comprise linked siliconcells which transform sunlight into electricity which is converted to A.C. by means of an inverter. Thiselectricity is available for use by the householder or for sale to your chosen electricity supplier.

AA CONCEPT

Integrate a susta inable advantage

New homebuyers are becoming increasingly conscious ofenergy costs and are attracted to homes that produce their ownrenewable electricity. By installing Imerys PVt tiles, housebuildersnot only reduce running costs for new owners but also provide avery desirable renewable technology that can help increase thevalue of homes by up to 10%* for an increased investment ofapproximately 4%.* Energy Saving Trust

AA A SUSTAINABLE HOMES ADVANTAGE

AA ADDING VALUEWITH A COST-SAVING INVESTMENT

As planning guidelines become more onerous, the use ofrenewable technology is becoming desirable for everybuilder and developer in the country. Because ImerysPVt tiles are discreetly integrated into the roof, they areoften approved by Local Authority Planners where otherrenewable energy options have been consideredunsuitable. The PVt is especially useful on sensitive sitesand even in conservation areas.

AA A PLANNING ADVANTAGE

When used in conjunction with tiles from the Imerys range ofnatural clay rooftiles, these PVt tiles create the ultimatesustainable roof system. Under the Code for Sustainable Homesthey can help you achieve credits for both renewable electricityand roofing materials thanks to the low embodied energy ratingof natural clay. Clay roof tiles have received a BRE ‘A’ ratingdenoting their low environmental impact, providing an excellentsustainable resource welcomed by local authority planners.

For full compatibility details please refer to the ProductSelector or our website – www.imerys-rooftiles.com.

Beautifully discreetPVt tiles integrate superbly into the roofline, makingthem almost indistinguishable from the surrounding tilessuch as HP 10 slate.

Powerful and adaptable 60 Watts per PVtA standard 1.08kWp system consists of 18 tiles and covers 9m2.

The ultimate sustainable roofRenewable solar electricity and natural clay tiles combineto create the ultimate sustainable roofing system.Naturally, clay tiles have lower embodied energy costs thanmost other roofing materials. Imerys complies with BS ENISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management Systems.

WarrantyThe PVt has a market-leading warranty;

• PV output minimum 80% output is guaranteed for 25 years• Anti-corrosion and watertightness are guaranteed for

30 years when installed with compatible tiles from theImerys range, which are themselves guaranteed inrespect of durability for 30 years.

Outstanding value The PVt is as competitively priced as any PV tile on themarket – call us to discuss your requirements. Attractivefeed-in tariffs apply from the 1st April 2010, and start at£0.361 per unit generated from new new-build PVinstallations of less than 4kW.

The perfect union of solar panels and tiles

When used in conjunction with Imerys clay roof tiles the Imerys PVt Solar Panels integrate perfectly anddiscreetly within the roof elevation. The waterproof panel frames are designed to interlock with each other andwith the surrounding tiles.The modular format of the Imerys PVt panels ensures its ease of application on a variety of installations – large and small.

AA THE IMERYS PVt

1 The solar tiles produce DC (Direct Current)electricity from the sun’s rays.

2 The inverter converts this electricity to AC(Alternating Current) identical to that of yourgrid supply.

3 Whilst this electricity is primarily for your ownconsumption, any surplus is sold to the grid.

AA ORIENTATION AND SHADING

Optimum performance is obtained from Imerys PVtpanels integrated into south-facing roof elevationsof 30 to 40°.

Wherever possible the effect of shade fromobstructions such as buildings, chimneys, dormers or trees should be avoided, as such masking willpartially reduce the effectiveness of the PV installation.
