We are currently working with five local installers, who between them, cover the whole of Cumbria. We can support anyone who wants a quote – please visit Solar Made Easy – CAfS.
If you wish to proceed independently, we would recommend that you look out for the following when you seek quotes :
- Are they MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) accredited? You can search for installers in Cumbria here.
- Are they a member of the Renewable Energy Consumer Code?
- Do they have good reviews?
Check their quote includes:
- A realistic estimation of electricity generation and percentage of electricity that is likely to be used.
- A financial assessment of savings over time and estimated payback period.
- Technical information on the system they are proposing for you.
- Warranty information.
Installers may not visit your home initially and may not provide complete information until they are more confident that the job might go ahead. If this is the case, check that this will be done at the next stage before you place the order with them.
