Discuss Had my Solar PV installed yesterday - and couldn't be happier with my choice in the Solar PV Forum | Solar Panels Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
I assume it was the same company as I had a quote from (I don't wish to advertise them): same price (£9750) for Sunlink 245W panels and Power One inverter ... their representative was upfront about what they do: they more or less install this one system at under £10K ... and it sells!
However, I’m of a nervous disposition and I didn’t feel that maybe the company would be around in years to come once the FiT wanes. And I wasn’t too sure about the Sunlink panels either.
As I’m getting quotes £10K - £11K for ‘better’ panels from reputable PV installers – I prefer them to have an extended and proven electrical background and who, like me, are conscientious and genuinely interested in their work – this is the route I’m going down. I would like to think that in years to come the installer can be contacted to discuss any issues that arise and how best to overcome them.
Price is a major factor, but for me so is piece of mind about the installer and the fact that a more efficient system should easily gain back the extra initial outlay over the 25 year period.
I hope I get all the necessary stickers, certs & glands on my install!
Had my Solar PV installed yesterday - and couldn't be happier with my choice
New to the Forum, but I thought i'd share my install info
West facing roof in Essex
16 x 245W sunlink panels
Aurora one inverter
Energy monitor
Both with a 10 year guarantee
All for £9750!!!
The installation went like a dream, a team of 5 turned up at 8am (1 doing the electrics, the rest on the roof)
Real nice proffessional guys, very neat and tidy job, who were more than happy to do exactly what I wanted - even trimmed down my soil vents for me.
Swithched on 2:30ish and even on a West facing roof with a large oak tree giving plenty of shading (which is soon to be trimmed) it produced 6 units and peaked at 2.657Kw.
Paid the final payment over the phone, and recieved my MCS cert and invoice within half hour by email, which I sent off this morning
Got up this morning at 7:30 and it had already switched on, and is now producing just over 2Kw's. Got the washing machine and 1200 watts of electric underfloor heating on, and the meter outside isn't moving!!! Happy days
I really couldnt recommend this company enough, they are a large nationwide company with lots of experience, great customer service and most importantly great price!! They are also offering a limited deal on 16 x 250w Sharp panels for £10,995 at the moment.
Anyway, hopefully the pics below will work and you can see the install for yourself. Any comments welcome
John
