How PV solar panels work
  • Sunlight hits the solar cells in the panel
  • The sunlight knocks electrons loose from the atoms of the semiconductor material
  • These electrons flow through the cell, creating an electric current
  • The electric current passes through an inverter, which converts it into AC electricity
  • The AC electricity can then be used to power your home or business

Preston solar panel installation FAQs

You must have some questions. Here are some of the most common questions about our solar services. If you have any others, get in touch!

How are solar panels installed?

When we kick off a solar installation in Preston, we usually begin with a site assessment to see if your property is a good fit for panels.

Next, we’ll install the mounting system that’ll securely hold your panels. After that, we’ll hook everything up to an inverter to turn that solar power into clean energy for your home.

To wrap things up, we’ll give the whole system a thorough check to make sure everything is working properly and meets our quality and safety standards.

How long does a solar PV installation take?

Every installation is unique, just like your home. System size, power needs, and panel design all play a role, as well as whether your project is domestic or commercial.

Is my roof suitable for solar panels?

To find out if your roof is suitable for solar panels, there are a few things to think about. Firstly, size matters—the bigger your roof, the more panels you can fit to absorb daylight.

Orientation also matters—south-facing is ideal, but east or west can still work. Your roof’s materials also have to be a good fit for a solar system.

Finally, make sure your roof is in good condition and strong enough to handle the weight of solar panels.

Do I need planning permission for solar panels?

Usually, you don’t need planning permission for solar panels in Preston unless your property is a listed building, in an area of conservation, or if your system is particularly tall or visible.

 

How much do solar panels cost to install in Preston?

The cost of installing solar panels in Preston usually starts at around £5,000, depending on things like:

  • The size of your system
  • What type of panels you choose
  • If you have any extras, like battery storage
