Solar Power systems can be installed on roofs facing anywhere from due east to due west. North is best for absolute production, however a well designed system will match your solar production to your home’s electricity consumption.

Systems can either be installed on flat roof or tilting frames can be installed at an extra expense. We recommend a slight pitch to allow for water runoff and self cleaning.

The size of system you will install depends on several factors. These include:

• How many panels will fit on your roof.
• Your budget.
• Your needs, a smaller system may be enough to offset your whole bill.
• Your future plans, if you intend on starting a family and staying in the house long term, go bigger.

Once you have decided on the system you would like installed, we will contact your electricity network provider and obtain authorisation to have the system installed. Once approval has been granted, we will arrange an installation date with you, usually within 2-4 weeks. We will also send you a pack containing your invoice and paperwork to sign up to the Feed in Tariff.
