yeah, true.
The "issue" (as in, not an issue at all) is that the solar grant thing is based around excess electric going back to the grid thus meaning the government can big up their CO2 reduction from power generation. So I don't think the grants are as good for solar heating.

True
I'm pretty sure the solar heating actually works better if you're genuinely looking at making an eco-house.

solar heating is pretty effective
my bro and my parents have it on theirs houses and even in winter they don't need to heat any water using gas or whatever.

Admittedly we live in sunny Devon, rather than the frozen North

I just get round the issue by not putting the heating on
