They initially advised us on the best system for our needs and then the work was carried out in a professional manor, great attention to detail and a really neat and tidy job. To put the car charger where I wanted it was not an easy task but they managed it with great results. Sound advice was given prior to installation and follow up service has been second to none.

How many solar panels are needed to power your home in Scunthorpe?

This is completely dependent on the size of your home, as well as your average annual electricity consumption. As an average guide, we’d recommend the following based on Scunthorpe house sizes:

  • 2-3 bedroom – 8-13 panels

Is my home suitable for solar panels?

Most homes in Scunthorpe are suitable for solar panel installations, however it’s good to take into consideration some of the factors that will determine just how much you will benefit from having them installed, such as:

  • Your Roof’s Orientation – We wouldn’t recommend north-facing solar panels in Scunthorpe due to the limited sunlight, south-facing homes will benefit the most. However, this doesn’t mean that north facing homes won’t generate energy or savings – they will just take a little longer.
  • Shading – If your home is surrounded by trees and buildings, then you may struggle to get the most out of your solar panels. We will look for the best possible area in your home to get the most out of your panels.
  • Roof size – Solar panels require sufficient roof space to be effective. As part of our design process, we make the most of the surface area you have available to create as much energy as possible. It’s good to keep in mind that if your roof is particularly small, the system’s energy output will be lower compared to larger installations.

For more information on solar panels for your homes, our blog ‘Is Solar Right For Your Home – A Guide to Domestic Solar should answer any further questions you may have.

The entire process from initial consultation through to activating your solar system can take anywhere from 6-15 weeks. However, the timeline for how long it takes to install solar panels can vary.
