What Bideford Homeowners Say About Our Solar Installation Specialists
18 x 440W LONGi Hi-MO panels installed on our Bideford in-roof flush mounted spec. EV-ready setup with PV diverter to the immersion. System size 59kWp. Total £13680 fitted. Building Notification submitted by the contractor.
Three MCS-certified solar firms quoted via BestBuilders for our Bideford mid-terrace. Picked the mid-priced quote at £12200 - 12 panels and a 5kWh battery. Loft cabling clipped properly to joists, no surface tracking visible. EPC went up one band thanks to the new generation capacity.
Two summers later and the battery has paid back about 35% of itself already. Installer near Bideford recommended panel optimisers because of the gable shading - good call. EPC went up to a B from a D thanks to the new generation capacity.
