Richard's Solar Experience: Why Choosing the Right Solar Installer Matters

September 19, 2024

Richard’s journey into solar energy began at a local green energy event, where he encountered a solar panel installer. Reassured by their presence and the fact that they were listed with SEAI (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland), Richard felt confident in his choice and allowed the company to inspect his home the very next day.

 

However, after the system was installed, things began to feel off. Despite his initial optimism, Richard noticed no significant drop in his electricity bills, which is one of the key indicators of a successful solar installation. Concerned, he reached out to the company for clarification. His emails and calls went unanswered, and he received no formal documentation about the system or the installation process. What started as excitement over his solar panel installation quickly turned into frustration and uncertainty.

 

In search of a solution, Richard discovered theIrish Solar Energy Association (ISEA). Through them, he was introduced to Activ8 Solar Energies. The team at Activ8 conducted a thorough assessment of Richard’s existing solar system and uncovered multiple issues with the initial installation.

 

Activ8 replaced the faulty system with a new one, designed and installed to meet Richard’s needs. Richard’s solar journey was set back on track, ensuring that his investment in renewable energy was in good hands.

 

 

 

Experiences like Richard’s are increasingly common with over 450 solar installers now registered in Ireland.
