One option is to use a duct AC unit to feed into your existing hot air duct system rather then putting separate AC units to cover every space.
Need insulated ducting if introducing cold air (into the ducts) otherwise the first few metres will be sufficiently cold that it will cause condensation.
Another option is to fit a MVHR unit, with the preheated air going into the existing ducts.
Heated air would be OK, but MVHR will need an air-tight building to start with (otherwise the exhaust air is a lot less than 100% of the incoming, and the heat-recovery will be very disappointing as a consequence, and thus the make-up heat requirement would be the same as in a drafty building
)
What we needed to do was the build the buildings better (more air-tight / better insulation) in the first place, but we still don't have building regs that are close to what is needed.
Also solar collectors are way more efficient than PV if you want heat
I've had solar thermal (for DHW) for 15-ish years. Problem with it is that it produces heat that has to go somewhere, so the snag is what to do with it when the hot water tank is up to temperature. Can just let it expand and replace itself with steam! but personally I think that approach, and the stresses it causes, is undesirable. (
I have an accumulator, and can dump excess heat into pool) If you've got a swimming pool, and can dump the heat there then you are good to go
although you may find your pool gets far too hot in summer ... you can dump it to your radiator circuit of course
Actually the water temperature around the Rads won't amount to much, but any room-heating in Summer is probably undesirable.
In that vein I wouldn't install solar thermal for Pool heating (I have that, but don't use it any more). Whilst the per-unit-area collection of solar thermal is good I would prefer to have Electricity and a Heat Pump. Heat the pool in the early part of the season using the Grid, use PV thereafter, and in mid Summer when no pool heating required use the electricity for something else. Grid again at the end of the season. Much more flexible the Solar Thermal which can only produce heat, and excess heat is a problem to solve.
