One of the easiest ways to reduce your energy bills is through the installation of Solar Panels. Solar panels provide a reliable and simple way of producing energy for your home. Their innovative all-weather technology converts energy into electricity on both sunny and overcast days. Only using the highest quality solar suppliers, Crystal handles the full process from assessment to installment.
Yes, your home must have an EPC rating of E-G and you should be in receipt of one of the qualifying benefits. In addition, to qualify for a Solar PV installation your home's main heating source, before or after installation, must be electric - this includes being heated by an Air Source Heat Pump, High Heat Retention Storage Heaters or an Electric heating system.
Each panel is made of a semi-conductive material such as silicon. The light shines on the panels, creating an electrical current that flows to a collection point (often on your roof). From there, the energy is converted from DC (direct current) to AC (alternative current) which can be used throughout your home.
Although solar panels of course need an initial investment, they pay for themselves in several ways. Firstly, solar panels are often seen as a selling point for a home. Increasing its value and therefore your return on investment in the long term. In addition, they contribute or completely cover your electricity bills - cumulatively paying for themselves over a number of years.
Our team of installers will test your panels to ensure they’re working correctly. In addition, you’ll have a control panel that records their performance and the power they’re supplying to your home.

The replacement of my boiler was initially a daunting prospect. The two installers Andre (and Marlon) were just great, really respectful and carried out the work, quietly, efficiently and with consideration. How to check the boiler was explained to me and I felt very pleased that it was all gone so well.
