Solar Panel Installation: What UK Homeowners Should Know

Installing solar panels is one of the finest ways to make your home greener, smarter, and more economical. Here's a plain guide to what a good UK install looks like.

Solar is one of the most cost-effective home improvements you can make in the UK today. A quality install lasts 25+ years and starts saving from day one.

What a good install includes

  • MCS-certified installer and full MCS documentation.
  • Tier-1 panels with 25-year performance warranties.
  • A properly sized inverter (and battery, if fitted).
  • Full electrical certification and DNO notification.
  • Handover walkthrough and monitoring set up on your phone.

Questions to ask an installer

Are they MCS-certified in their own right (not just under someone else's number)? Do they carry HIES membership? Who does the actual work — subcontractors or their own team? We do everything in-house.
