Is my house suitable?

To achieve the best results PV panels should be installed on a roof that faces south, but anywhere between east and west, with no or little overshading from trees or buildings, will be effective.

Most roof structures will be able to take the weight of the solar PV panels. We can advise on this as part of our initial survey.

Planning permission for solar PV systems is normally not required, unless your home is a listed building, or is in a conservation area or World Heritage Site. In these cases, check with your local council.
