First, the roof needs to be surveyed by a professional to determine the suitability for solar panel placement. A sturdy, well-constructed, south facing roof would be ideal.
Next, you will need to have a chat with one of our solar technicians to determine how powerful a system you would like to have for your property.
Finally, all that is needed is the appropriate panel mounting hardware and access to the loft or attic space for the placement of the system inverter.
Installation time and cost will rely on the size, scope, and complexity of the project. A typical system install will take 1 to 2 days of work. Additional time maybe required obtaining the appropriate permits or for example if the customer wants a backup battery installed.
After surveying the property in question, we can give a more accurate estimate for installation time and cost.
The regular rainfall we receive here in Scotland cleans roof mounted panels of debris well enough, but under certain circumstances panels may need to be manually cleaned. From time to time you should also check for cracks in the panels, monitor the system output, inspect the condition of your roof, and look over system components for wear and tear.
If your system is damaged in any way please have a look at our solar PV system repairs information page and get in touch with us.
