We love our solar panels
Homeowners with solar panels explain, why.
People who install solar panels are certainly not shy at singing it's praises. Some enjoy adding up the analytical stats as they go through the year, but all enjoy the sense of pride which comes with having solar technology on their home.

"At the outset one is always sceptical about the integrity of the supplier and published benefits of solar panels. However we are now convinced that the information given on savings and the benefits are accurate. We are now also able to contribute to a sustainable environment as well as having the satisfaction of long terms savings.
The professionalism of the presentation, installation service and follow up were excellent. We are able to utilise the benefits of solar panels supplying the hot water with minimal input from the mains power and this has been verified by our latest bill.
The photovoltaic panels were installed in mid August and we are already seeing the number of credit units rising daily, and this will certainly reduce our electricity costs long term and provide an income from the feed in tariff scheme.
We are more than happy that we chose your company as our supplier and will certainly recommend you to interested parties."

"The morning of the installation I was just brewing my second cup of coffee and settling down to read the paper when the solar panel installers arrived 75 minutes AHEAD of schedule!"
He said he wanted to get an early start to crack on with the job.
We discussed a couple of items, such as cabling routing and the electrician arrived as well. We agreed on positioning of the converter box in the loft. All I had to do was move a few boxes of stored stuff.
The whole job was completed in 5 hours, including cleaning up.
I can't comment too highly about the efficiency and high quality of the whole installation process.
They explained the operation of the equipment and went about everyting in a thoroughly professional manner, and they only drank 2 cups of tea/coffee each!"
Job well done!!
Many thanks

"We wish we had discovered solar panels years ago."
"As I began to look into the possibility of installing solar panels I became more and more confused and wary about all the facts and figures and different products, but your company helped me navigate through this sea of solar information and arrive at a system that suited me and my needs. Indeed, my overall experience has been a pleasant one.
My solar panels were installed and I am now registered with my electricity company to export power, so am feeling like a mini power station and happy in the knowledge that I am doing my bit to be greener.
I would be happy to recommend your company as I found you professional, efficient and informative from the surveyors inspection and detailed report, to installation day when the technical guys took great care with their work and instilled confidence with their general solar knowledge."
Mrs Hoptroff, Sussex
"I am writing to commend to you the team that carried out the installation and your staff who handled the paperwork.
We have had the solar panels for nearly two months now and have found them to be exactly as described on the time¯. The equipment is working superbly and the indictors that you have installed show exactly what we are producing every day. It's nice to think we are now adding to the system instead of taking away.
Thanks for your great service and support."
John, Cirencester
"One advantage of installing the system is that it has made us much more conscious of electricity usage and hence has reduced our overall consumption significantly, the owner reports. Looking at the price difference between cost and selling, I am expecting very low bills for this year."
Mr Benson, Oxfordshire
"We are now self sufficient in electricity, which was our target. We have been monitoring our meter and our record so far is 16.5 units in one day. Very promising!"
Mrs Taylor, Warwickshire
I was surprised by how easy the installation process was. It was smooth, easy and hassle free. My thanks, a highly professional job on both occasions.
Mr Jones, Shropshire
Three weeks ago we became a micro power station.
We installed a 2kW generator on our south facing roof. This was the last piece in the puzzle to make our home environmentally friendly as possible. Over the years we have done the basics including solar water heating and now photovoltaic. Our motivation was originally to do our bit, but after confirming the financial incentives for installing pv you really cannot go wrong.
In the last three weeks we have generated 200kW of electricity and benefited by £100 by selling our surplus back to the grid while using some ourselves, and this is just the beginning.
We certainly will recommend solar to all those who wish to become like us a Mico Power Station¯.
Mr and Mrs Dee, Dorset
"We would like to tell you how pleased we are with the installation of your solar panels which was carried out for us last week.
We found your installation team arrived on time, polite and tidy and was able to adjust the plan when it was necessary. At the end of the installation all the packaging and materials were removed. We found the whole procedure to be simple and fuss free.
We have found the panels are operational from about 8.30am till 4.30pm and have produced a maximum of 1.1 kw, bearing in mind the panels were installed at the end of November, so we are pleased they are working better than expected.
We look forward to seeing them in full production in the summer months.
We are pleased that we invested in solar panels instead of a new car, thanks."
Mr and Mrs Rose, Hertfordshire
"I wish to put on record how pleased I am with my photovoltaic solar panels, the manner in which it was sold to me erected and is now functioning.
The system has only been in a week and the novelty of nipping into the garage to see how much electricity has been generated in different weather conditions has yet to wear off. With a full week of operation now approaching it is on target to reach in excess of 55 kWh. Not bad for a week with three days of rainy conditions.
Of course it is far too early to make projections, but I am certainly well reassured that what is a serious long term capital investment, will go on to provide an economic return substantially pay for my domestic energy requirements for the next 25 years, and along with my cycling, contribute to reducing my carbon footprint!
I live in a small close with long standing neighbours that I care about. All have commented favourably on the solar panels and its neat and tidy appearance.
During the whole process you were polite and friendly, professional, efficient and effective. Your whole organisation came across as a caring one. I would not hesitate to recommend you to friends and family."
Mr Hall, Hampshire
"I had often thought about having a solar hot water system installed, having seen many of such systems in South Africa where we used to live, but never thought they would work effectively in the United Kingdom."
"It wasn't long before the call came and an appointment arranged, I couldn't wait for the system to be up and running. The efficient way in which appointment was arranged was most impressive. Your solar surveyor arrived promptly for the appointment and was very professional while still spending time to make sure he answered all our questions."
"Being able to heat our hot water by the sun was probably the deciding factor to have the system installed. This means having our boiler turned off during the summer months and supplementing in the colder months. The bonus of a government payment scheme is quite unbelievable making a very good return on our investment."
"Our evacuated tubes system has been running for a few weeks and we have had all the hot water we need for our family home, in fact it's hotter than from the boiler saving the amount of water we use as well. Our boiler has been off since the system was installed."
"The installation was carried out with little inconvenience to ourselves and the team claned up around as they worked. We have already recommend your company to neighbours, family and friends."
"Many thanks"
Mr Cook, Wiltshire
