Here’s a comprehensive guide to what you can expect when you choose Furber Roofing for your solar panel installation.

Initial Consultation

The journey begins with an initial consultation. This step involves:

  • Site Assessment: Our expert team visits your property to assess its suitability for solar panels. We evaluate factors such as roof orientation, shading, and structural integrity.
  • Energy Needs Analysis: We review your current energy consumption and discuss your goals for switching to solar energy.
  • Personalised Proposal: Based on the assessment, we provide a detailed proposal outlining the recommended system size, estimated energy production, cost, and potential savings.

Customised Design

Once you approve the proposal, we move on to the design phase:

  • System Design: Our engineers create a custom solar panel system tailored to your home’s specifications and energy needs. This includes selecting the optimal panel type and positioning for maximum efficiency.
  • Permitting and Paperwork: We handle all necessary permits and paperwork, ensuring compliance with local regulations and standards. This step includes coordinating with your utility company for grid connection.

Installation Scheduling

After the design is finalised and permits are secured, we schedule the installation:

  • Installation Timeline: We provide a clear timeline for the installation process, minimising any disruption to your daily routine. Our team works efficiently to complete the project on schedule.
  • Preparation: Prior to installation, we take all necessary precautions to protect your property and ensure a safe working environment.

Solar Panel Installation

The installation process itself involves several key steps:

  • Mounting the Panels: We securely attach the solar panels to your roof using high-quality mounting hardware. Our team ensures that the panels are positioned for optimal sunlight exposure.
  • Electrical Work: We install the necessary electrical components, including inverters and wiring, to connect the solar panel system to your home’s electrical system.
  • System Integration: We integrate the solar system with your existing power supply, enabling seamless energy flow between your solar panels and the grid.

Quality Assurance and Testing

Before activating your solar panel system, we conduct thorough testing:

  • System Testing: We perform rigorous tests to ensure that the system operates efficiently and safely. This includes checking electrical connections, monitoring energy output, and verifying that all components are functioning correctly.
  • Quality Assurance: Our quality assurance team conducts a final inspection to ensure that the installation meets our high standards of workmanship and safety.

Activation and Monitoring

Once the system is tested and approved, we proceed to activation:

  • System Activation: We coordinate with your utility company to activate the system and switch it on. This step allows you to start generating solar energy and benefiting from reduced energy bills.
  • Monitoring Setup: We set up monitoring systems that allow you to track your energy production and consumption in real time. This helps you understand your system’s performance and optimise energy usage.
