We aim to make the whole process of purchasing and installing your solar thermal system as simple and straightforward as possible. Our aim is to make the process transparent with nothing hidden along the way. If at any point you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Virtual survey
Once you contact us to request a survey we'll use the magic of Google to carry out a virtual survey of your property. This will help us to identify whether your property will be suitable for solar thermal. If it's immediately clear that your home won't be suitable, we'll let you know so that none of your precious time is wasted.
Your solar survey
If your home looks suitable for solar thermal we'll arrange a convenient time to meet with you and carry out a thorough survey. We can talk to you about the likely design of your installation, and answer any questions you might have. In order to properly survey your home we'll need access to your loft and possibly your roof. At the survey we'll look at the following:
- Direction your roof faces
- Amount of space available on your roof
- Pitch of your roof
- Roof structure, construction and condition
- Any potential shading issues
- Condition of your plumbing system
- Location of key components of your plumbing system
