Assess before choosing
Exposure, available area, mounting structure and pipe lengths influence the choice. We assess tank capacity, collectors, pipe insulation and backup heating for less favourable periods.

Prepare for our conversation
Useful information
to move forward together
A few details help us understand your situation and prepare a visit or assessment. You can contact us even if you do not yet have all this information.
- Share user numbers and draw-off times.
- Describe existing hot water production.
- Prepare roof and tank location information.
Clear expectations at every stage
Before work begins
An explained scope, defined services and terms agreed in the quote.
At commissioning
The planned tests and checks, with guidance on using your equipment.
Over time
Maintenance guidance and a contact for follow-up and support under the agreed terms.
A question about your project?
Will solar heating cover every need all year?
Coverage depends on sunshine, sizing and usage. Backup heating may be needed; its role and operation are defined in the assessment.
How are price and timing determined?
They depend on the agreed scope, existing conditions, equipment and site constraints. The quote defines services and terms; scheduling considers team and equipment availability.
What if my needs change after installation?
Contact us with the project reference and describe the situation. We review possible adjustments, servicing or adaptations, clarifying what is covered by agreed follow-up or a new service.
