FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you install in Scotland?

Yes. We arrange solar panel and battery installations for homes and businesses across Scotland, from Glasgow and Edinburgh to Aberdeen, Dundee and Inverness, working with vetted installation partners who cover your postcode. Coverage in remote and island areas varies, so tell us where the property is and we will confirm.

Can I add a battery to existing solar?

Usually, yes. Most existing solar systems can take a battery, either alongside the current inverter or with a hybrid inverter. A surveyor checks your inverter, consumer unit and space, then recommends a battery sized to how you actually use electricity.

Is finance available?

Interest-free credit up to £30,000, subject to status. If you would like to spread the cost, ask for the full credit terms in writing alongside your quote so you can compare them with paying upfront before you decide.

How do I get a quote?

Call 0141 230 0198 or fill in the quote form. We arrange a survey of your property, then you receive a written, no-obligation quote with the equipment and total price set out clearly. You choose whether to go ahead.
