FAQ's Harlow

1) How much do solar panels cost in Harlow?
Most 10 to 12 panel home systems in Harlow cost roughly £5,000 to £8,000 before any add-ons. Final price depends on roof type, access, inverter choice, and whether you add a battery or EV charger.

2) How many panels do I need for a typical home?
Most three-bed homes need 10 to 16 panels to reach 3.6 to 6 kW. We size to your usage, roof space, and budget so you are not over or under-specced.

3) Do I need planning permission in Harlow?
Most homes do not. Solar usually falls under permitted development if panels are flush and below the ridge line. Conservation areas and listed buildings may need consent.

4) What payback time should I expect?
Most households see a 6 to 10 year payback when the system matches their usage and tariff. Batteries can shorten payback if you use more power after dark or have cheap off-peak rates.

5) Do solar panels work in winter and on cloudy days?
Yes, panels generate in all daylight, just at lower output in winter or heavy cloud. Summer peaks are higher, winter output is lower, but annual savings add up.

6) Is a home battery worth it?
A battery is worth it if you use power after dark or can charge off-peak. Typical sizes are 5 to 10 kWh. Benefits include higher self-consumption, tariff arbitrage, and backup options with the right hardware.

7) Can you install on slate or flat roofs?
Yes. Slate roofs use stainless hooks and rails, and flat roofs use ballasted frames that avoid penetrations where possible. We design to wind loads, warranties, and manufacturer guidance.

8) What is the Smart Export Guarantee and how much could I earn?
SEG pays you for surplus energy exported to the grid once your system is certified. Rates vary by supplier and tariff, so we help you pick one that fits your usage profile.

9) How long does installation take and how disruptive is it?
Most home installs take 1 to 2 days with minimal disruption. From survey to commissioning is typically 2 to 4 weeks, depending on equipment lead times and your availability.

10) What warranties and aftercare do you provide?
Panels carry 20 to 25 year performance warranties, inverters 5 to 12 years depending on model, and our workmanship is guaranteed. You also get lifetime after-care with proactive support.
