What are Solar Power Systems Good for?

Traditionally, it was thought that you could only use solar power to replace electricity for things like lights, computers, and some household appliances. This is still the case, but more technology is being developed to enable you to fully power your house – central heating and all – with a suitably sized solar panel and battery setup.

And grid-tied systems let you either rely on solar as a backup, or otherwise run entirely off your solar electricity and use the grid as a backup. On good days, you’ll even be able to sell your surplus electricity back to the grid.

Are There Roofs That May be Unsuitable for Solar?

If you have a pitched roof, you’ll most likely not need to apply for planning permission to add solar panels.

The only instance where you may need to do so is for a flat roof where the panels will need to be stood up with ballast – but this tends to be a relatively niche scenario and doesn’t usually face much pushback from planning authorities if the panels aren’t then shading any adjacent properties.

Solar Installations in Maidstone to Suit Your Budget


The great thing about solar power systems is that it’s not an all-or-nothing investment. You can add to it in the future and upgrade systems as you go. Some forward planning would be highly recommended there though!

But in most instances, planning a suitable power system will be a case of assessing your average energy consumption and figuring out how many panels and batteries will suit your needs.

For a lower budget option, you can even forego batteries altogether and work entirely with a grid-tied hybrid system that powers your home and sells power back to the national grid during daylight hours, and then works from the grid at night.

Ryan and Owen were a pleasure to work with on this the third Aquaheat boiler that I have facilitated being fitted. I liked how they thought away from the original job quote to make little 'tweaks' for the better The girls in the office are always helpful and understanding. It was nice to see Lee again who I first met many years ago when, I believe, he was setting up the business so great to see how well they are doing now. My new boiler in a rental property will shift me up the energy rating bands and looks great. Nothing was too much trouble

We had Aquaheat install two units during the summer of this year. What a difference they have made too! The team were polite, easy to liaise with, kept us up to date, and provided a good all round service. Special mention to Brad, Ryan, and Owen. Just recommended them to the wider family too as pleased with the work. Thanks guys.

Brad's a champion. He diagnosed a complex long running fault in our heating system in a short space of time, showing a great depth of knowledge. The office team are also brilliant at getting you booked in as quickly as possible.

Matt and Mike were friendly, polite and professional. They explained everything at the end on how to use the new boiler and thermostat. They showed great etiquette by removing their shoes and being mindful of the pets. Overall I was really pleased with the service. Thank you.

From the initial call to Aquaheat when the boiler had failed to engineer calling and trying to repair then the boiler being replaced the journey was second to none. Two engineers (Ryan and Owen) replaced the boiler and radiator. Exceptional professionalism from start to finish. Dust sheets were layed and overshoes worn and on completion everything was left clean and tidy. The operation of the boiler was fully explained. There was excellent communication via email with quotes and timescales. I would highly recommend Aquaheat for price and professionalism throughout.
