Why premium panels?

Premium panels can generate more electricity from the same roof area, which matters when space is limited. They also tend to degrade more slowly, so they keep producing well for longer.

And because solar is a long-term investment, warranty support matters. A quality panel backed by a reputable manufacturer gives you more confidence that the system will still be doing its job decades from now.

Panels are much harder to change than the inverter or a battery,. Investing in your panels now is the most important part of the install.

Thinking about installing solar at home? ☀️

Here’s a simple breakdown:

🔋 Why go solar?
• Lower power bills
• Protection from rising electricity prices
• Increased home value
• Reduced carbon footprint

⚡ Solar WITHOUT a battery
✔ Lower upfront cost
✔ Faster payback
✖ Still rely on the grid at night
✖ No backup during outages

🔌 Solar WITH a battery
✔ Store power for night use
✔ Backup during outages
✔ More energy independence
✖ Higher upfront cost
✖ Longer payback

Most homeowners start with panels first, then add a battery later if needed.
Solar is usually worth it. Batteries depend on your lifestyle and priorities.

Brian wanted the best possible performance for his solar system, so we installed these panels on tilt brackets.

We installed 10x Trinasolar 440w panels on either side of the roof gully. Connected to a 5kW Entelar Group inverter and 5kW battery with power backup.

Brian and his partner will be able to save on their power bills and still run the house when the power goes out!

We recently installed this 18-panel solar system for Sally in Cambridge.

Running an Air-BnB out of the property as well as having a pool and multiple heat pumps, Sally was paying a lot more than she would have liked in power each month.

Thanks for trusting us with your new system Sally!
