Solar panel installations in Wigan

The solar panel installation process is pretty straightforward! They are typically installed on your property’s roof but can also go in other places like carports or ground mounts. Here’s how it usually works:

• We check your property to make sure it’s a good fit for solar panels, looking at things like your roof size, orientation, type, and any obstructions like trees.
• Then, we’ll set up scaffolding and attach a sturdy mounting system to your roof. This supports the solar panels and keeps them secure.
• Once everything’s ready, we carefully place the solar panels on your roof and attach them to the mounting system.
• Our installers will then connect the panels to an inverter, which converts their electricity into a usable form for your home.
• We’ll do some final checks and tests to make sure everything is installed correctly and working well.

To find out if your roof is suitable for solar panels, there are a few things to consider:

• What’s the size of your roof? This determines how many panels you can install.
• What way does your roof face? Panels should ideally face south for the most sunlight, but they can still work in other directions, too.
• What type of roof do you have? Some materials are stronger and work better for solar panels.
• What is your roof’s condition? It needs to be in good shape to support the panels.
