Ian’s Solar Installation in Portchester


We talked to our solar installation customer, Ian to tell you a bit more about what going solar involves

We’ll let you know:

  • What system he had installed

  • Why he decided to go solar

  • How he found the process with CRG

Ian recently had a solar installation done on his home and shared his experience with us. Ian decided to get panels because he realized that although the "Payback time is quite a few years, with the rise in prices it seemed to make sense." He was also worried about what would happen when the government help for energy bills ended. Additionally, Ian and his family have an air conditioner that they wanted to run off the battery and panels, so solar power was the perfect solution for them.

When looking for a company to install his solar panels, Ian initially ordered a system from another company that “turned out to be unreliable.” He then got a new quote from CRG, which turned out to be “more reasonable and better than the previous quote” he received. Ian had signed up for another scheme, but he ultimately decided to go with CRG.

The installation process was efficient and took just 6 weeks to complete. Ian mentioned that the roofers did an excellent job and even removed the chimney, which was “very impressive.” They also took the bricks away, which was a bonus. The chimney had bothered Ian for a while as was not used and was beginning to become a safety hazard due to its age.

Overall, Ian has had a positive experience with his solar installation and was “pleased with the work that CRG did.” Solar power is a great solution for homeowners who are looking to reduce their energy bills and be more environmentally friendly. With the rise in energy prices, solar installations are becoming more and more popular. Although the initial investment can be significant, the long-term benefits of solar power make it a worthwhile investment for any homeowner.

It's worth noting that Ian lives in Porchester, a town located in the South East of England. In his household, there are two people with an average energy bill of £120 a month. With the installation of solar panels, an inverter, and a battery, Ian can now generate his electricity and reduce his dependence on the grid.

The solar panels installed by CRG will allow Ian to generate his electricity by harnessing the power of the sun. The inverter will convert the energy generated by the panels into usable electricity, which can power the appliances and devices in his home. Any excess electricity generated can be stored in the battery for later use, further reducing his reliance on the grid.

By having a solar installation, Ian is not only saving money on his energy bills but also reducing his carbon footprint. The solar panels will allow him to generate clean energy, which means that he's contributing towards a more sustainable future.

In conclusion, Ian's experience with solar power highlights the many benefits of investing in a solar installation. From reducing energy bills and increasing property value to promoting sustainability, solar power is a smart choice for any homeowner looking to take control of their energy use. With reliable and trustworthy installers like CRG, homeowners can enjoy a hassle-free installation process and start enjoying the benefits of solar power in no time.
