Solar Maintenance Costs

We all know the environmental benefits of switching to solar power yet many people believe that this energy alternative is prohibitively expensive to both install and maintain. However the reality is somewhat different as over the years solar power has become increasingly affordable and above all, exceptionally easy and cheap to maintain.


The key to a successful solar panel system is getting it right in the first place and the only way to ensure this is having a highly qualified, professional team of suppliers, designers and installers behind your solar panels. This is why here at Solar King UK we have ensured that all of our employees are nothing but the best when it comes to specialising in solar installation. A correctly installed solar panel system requires hardly any maintenance at all and will simply require routine checks and perhaps a one off battery replacement, which considering its average 30 year lifespan is little to ask.

Solar King Complaints – Commercial Panels

These days everywhere you look we’re reminded of the effects of global warming and the devastation our carbon footprint is having on our environment. With this daily reminder not only are we as individuals feeling the need to make more of an effort to use less energy which produces harmful emissions but this pressure is even more evident if you’re a business. As representatives within your market and pillars within your surrounding area no doubt you’ll want to give off the best reputation you possibly can. Therefore with so much hype surrounding the effects of global warming it makes perfect sense to show your commitment to change and make every effort to become a greener company. Businesses consume huge amounts of energy on a daily basis leading to often scrutinised and huge carbon footprints which is why it’s becoming increasingly evident that you need to show you’re taking responsibility and working to reduce this. 
One of the best ways you as a business can do this is by converting to a completely renewable energy source such as solar power. Switching your power source to solar power is without a doubt one of the best ways to boost your reputation, not only does it set an example to all your surrounding businesses but it might just give you that edge over your competitors and give your clients and customers that extra reason to choose your business for your service or products.
However all of this reputational reward of course comes second to the huge impact switching to a renewable energy source would have on the environment. Businesses who switch to solar power can make huge reductions on their carbon emission output which in turn means you can rely significantly less on your current extortionate energy supplier. Thanks to the reliability of solar power unlike traditional forms of energy, solar power costs never fluctuate and aren’t subject to huge price hikes. So if you want to escape the unpredictability of conventional energy sources you need to do it with solar power and install commercial solar panels and start making a difference today. Not to mention once you’ve shown your commitment to becoming a greener company you can also be fed into the Government’s Feed-In Tariff and actually start generating your very own income. With the recent revisions of the Feed-In Tariff from 1st July you could be looking at earning 16.5p for every Kilowatt Hour of energy you produce and even more if you make the switch before this date.
With all these great advantages to solar power it’s no surprise to us here at Solar King that when it comes to solar power we rarely hear of complaints. As an alternative which not only offers all of the above benefits for a business but offers a resource which can also withstand extreme weather conditions and is extremely durable you’re looking at an average warranty of 20 to 25 years. So if you want to make the change to a greener future do it with Solar King and the only complaint you’ll have to make is why you didn’t switch sooner.

What exactly are Solar Panels?

What exactly are Solar Panels?

We hear stories in the news about having to reduce our carbon foot print and emitting greenhouse gasses and what we can be doing to help the environment. Switching to solar energy is one of those ideas that sounds simple enough and will according to the government and research; help the environment in a big way. So before we make the investment there’s the simple questions that need answering.
  • Give us a Call for more Information on Solar Panels: 0844 844 7717
What are solar panels and how do solar panels work? Photovoltaic cells are arranged in a grid like pattern on the surface of solar panels; these cells collect sunlight during the daylight hours and convert it into electricity. The earth receives more solar energy in one hour than the world uses in one year and advancements in technology have enabled us to capture this energy and convert it into a renewable energy source to use in the home. Solar power is the physical conversion of sunlight into electricity however with our solar PV panels you don’t need direct sunlight as our system works in day light.
We think you should be educated with our products before you invest so if you have any more questions then please try our FAQ’s and our Solar King UK reviews pages that hopefully our already satisfied customers can answer for you. Try the buzz word for yourself and see what solar panels can do for you and what you can do for the environment.

Solar King Reviews the state of Solar Power Grant

Did you know that by investing in solar energy you could be paid by the Government for your contribution to renewable energy?  There are so many positives to investing in solar power, not to mention your contribution to the environment by producing clean, green energy but with the offer of a tax free return for every unit of electricity generated, there’s never been a better time to invest in government solar panels.
From our Solar King reviews page many of our customers have been quick to tell us about the fantastic returns they have made from their investment and the savings on their utility bills. If youinstall Solar PV Panels, the government’s feed in tariff scheme, along with savings you make on your utility bills, can generate a return investment of between 10 – 15%.With a drive towards pushing solar energy usage out to the masses the government is looking to introduce new solar power grants including the renewable heat incentive. Similar to the feed in tariff for electricity, a fixed payment is paid to the householder or business owner for any renewable heat generated by an installed renewable heating system.
If you want a guaranteed return on your investment as well as making the switch to doing your bit for the environment and changing to a renewable energy source then call Solar King today.

Solar King Reviews | The Advantages of Solar Panels

It may not be as widespread as it should, but solar energy has great potential to be used effectively in the future. The technology in developing solar panels to collect and harness the sun’s energy has proven very efficient in generating a clean and renewable source of electricity. Still in the development stages, solar energy has its disadvantages however these will be covered by the advantages due to the fact that research is still being committed to advancing the technology. And around the world we can see many examples of how solar power is put to great use: see the National Geographic article on how solar powers a drip irrigation system.

SOLAR KING UK

There are many advantages of solar panels including practicalities like minimal maintenance, as there are no moving parts which an annual clean would be fine for, and they make absolutely no noise. Other advantages include the fact you can enjoy clean, green living as solar energy creates no pollution so you are doing your bit for the environment by using renewable green energy. From our Solar King reviews, our clients have also expressed the advantages in cost effectiveness. Solar panels may seem quite expensive when you first purchase but in the long run, like our customers have confirmed, you will find yourself saving a lot more. Utility companies are changing their prices to match the economy but using energy from the sun, the prices remain virtually consistent.
We know how much you can benefit from  solar energy so we’re here to answer your questions and get you started on the path to enjoying the advantages of solar energy.

Solar King Reviews of Solar Panel Efficiency

Solar King Reviews of Solar Panel Efficiency

Some people choose to change to solar energy for environmental reasons however others are now looking to the financial benefits as well. Solar King UK uses PV panels which operate through available daylight not simply sunlight which provides maximum efficiency for you. Before installation we ensure your site is most suitable and does not have any shading problems which can dramatically impact the output and effectiveness. We want to ensure a maximum return with your solar panel efficiency so we offer advice and plan the installation before carrying out any work so we can guarantee the best results for you.
Before you invest in a product or service you want to know what you are getting out of it and how you will save money with solar panels. From the outset the price is set, as in simple terms, the sun doesn’t change rates, so your electricity bills can become more manageable. From our Solar King reviews our customers have praised the effectiveness with the solar panels efficiency confirming the product produces positive results even on dull days.
When asking the questions as to how efficient are solar panels, the figure may actually surprise you. The efficiency of PV solar panel is around 15 – 20% which compared with the efficiency rating of 90% upwards of some modern day boilers seems much lower than expected. However most boilers are powered by non-renewable energy sources like gas or oil so despite the relative inefficiency, solar panels still represent better news for the environment and bigger savings for the homeowner.

Solar King reviews home solar thermal system

As we slowly emerge from the minus temperatures of this winter, it’s hard to imagine a home without the luxuries of hot running water and heated radiators. But thankfully here in the UK this is a scenario we don’t have to contemplate being lucky enough to enjoy a reliable energy supply which allows us to make use of such features within our homes.
However, you may not like to hear it but this will not always be the case. With diminishing fossil fuel supplies and energy costs set to reach extortionate rates, limiting your daily energy consumption could soon be a sacrifice you have to make.
Want to know more about solar thermal systems? Call us on 0844 844 7717
On the other hand you could switch to a power source which guarantees you a supply of hot water for the future when all other sources are reaching saturation point. Not to mention a source which is a heck of a lot cheaper than your traditional supplier. So what is this wondrous power source we hear you ask? Well all of the above can be enjoyed by replacing your current heating supply with a home solar thermal system which generates heat from the abundance of solar energy our earth receives on a daily basis. As a system which collects this natural daylight energy using solar panels fitted to your property, it’s then transferred into heat for your domestic water supply. Therefore allowing you to have less reliance on your traditional, expensive and pollution emitting source.
Here at Solar King we know just how much the average household can benefit from residential solar thermal systems both on an efficiency and financial level. Not to mention the self-satisfaction you receive knowing that your home is helping to reduce our nation’s carbon footprint. Both of which are reasons why we want to make your decision to switch to solar thermal power so easy.
So if you want to start generating your own heat this year do it with one of our Solar King domestic solar thermal systems and start making a wise investment for your future and our planet’s.

With the extensive amounts of CO2 released into our atmosphere every day, as a nation we can and should be doing so much more to reduce the amount of harmful gases we’re releasing. Producing around 12.4 tonnes of CO2 per average household in just one year, switching your power supply from a fossil fuel source to a natural source such as solar power would substantially reduce this figure. Not only does solar power produce absolutely no greenhouse gases but these days it makes for a smart financial investment too.
This is why here at Solar King we’ve received an abundance of positive feedback when it comes to our residential solar panel reviews. With hundreds of UK residents realising the potential they have as individuals to make a difference, making the switch for them was without a doubt a decision with no regrets.

Heat Pump System Reviews

You may think you’ve heard it all when it comes to renewable energy but how much do you know about heat pumps? Available in the form of both ground sources and air sources, a heat pump can effectively replace your conventional boiler meaning your property can reduce the harmful emissions it produces by up to half.
Contact us about solar heat pump systems on 0844 844 7717
With solar heat pumps, put simply, energy either from the air or the ground is transformed into heat and used to warm the water in your water tank. Just like a traditional boiler this water is then used to supply your property with the hot water it needs.  So now you know how a heat pump generates heat what about the effectiveness of this technique? Well this is just one of the reasons why heat pump system reviews are always so positive, as in comparison to most gas or oil boilers which peak at 80 percent efficiency, your heat pump can expect to produce an efficiency level of 350 percent!
But if this wasn’t enough to convince you to include a heat pump in your renewable energy plan then take into consideration that our Solar King heat pump systems usually last up to 20 years, two times longer than that of a conventional boiler.
So now that you’re clear on the efficiency, maintenance and reliability of a heat pump system it’s time to start generating clean, low cost power. Why not put our Solar King heat pump reviews to the test and discover the advantages of this unbeatable power source for yourself?

Solar King Thermal System Reviews

In our chilly British winters and not so sunny summers having a reliable supply of hot water isn’t a luxury it’s a necessity. No matter how committed you are to conserving our planet, bathing in a cold tub sounds appealing to noone and is a sacrifice you don’t have to resort to in order to reduce your carbon footprint.
Thanks to solar thermal heating solutions you can produce a supply of hot water using a green and renewable energy alternative. As an energy solution which is equally as efficient and as clean as a solar PV system, solar thermal power is an option which many property owners are already enjoying.
If you’re after a solar thermal heating system for you house, give us a call on 0844 844 7717
Similar to that of a solar PV system a thermal system harnesses daylight which heats a solar panel collector filled with solar fluid. This heated fluid is then circulated around your water tank, transferring its heat energy to your existing water supply. This therefore produces hot water for use throughout your property or to be used more specifically such as heating a swimming pool.
Capable of supplying up to 70% of your annual hot water needs, a solar thermal heating system works in tandem with your traditional energy supply whilst allowing you to significantly cut your reliance on such extortionate resources. This is why here in the UK so many residents and businesses have already converted to this renewable power supply.
So if you think we’re just being biased here at Solar King, simply check out our Solar King thermal solar panel reviews and you’ll soon see that it’s not just us who are now fans of solar power.

So if you’re thinking about converting your energy source to renewable solar power then see what our past customers are saying about our products.
From customers stating that despite cloudy days after just after 26 weeks their system had in fact ‘generated about 95% of the expected output for an average year’ solar power is unbeatable when it comes to efficiency.  Meanwhile other customers enjoyed the financial benefits of converting to solar power, stating, ‘We are on course to recover at least £1000 in the year’ to ‘Our first payment back from the government scheme was so good we had our panels upgraded.’ So from our recent records it seems like you’ll be hard pushed to find a customer who hasn’t been satisfied with our work here at Solar King.

Is Solar Power Worth it?

So it’s reached the point where you’re beginning to look around and notice the consequences of increased global warming with melting polar ice caps and a thinning ozone layer and you’ve decided it’s time you personally started making some changes. Well first of all here at Solar King we applaud you for reaching this conclusion and second of all we’d like to support your decision by making this commitment to change as simple as possible.
When it comes to making a positive contribution to our environment, there’s only one way to go and that’s solar power. Of course here at Solar King we’re going to say that but we’re biased for good reason. You may be thinking ‘is solar power worth it?’ After all changing your energy supply really is a hassle you could do without, but take it from the hundreds of satisfied customers in our reviews (people who’ve had solar panels installed), with Solar King the only thing you’ll notice is the energy independence you can start enjoying.

As one of the most reliable alternative energy sources available not to mention one of the cleanest resources out there, once you’ve made the transition you’ll wonder why you didn’t convert much sooner. Not only can you start enjoying the self-satisfaction of a power supply which you know is assisting the recovery of our planet, but you can also enjoy financial benefits too. With the Government’s Feed-in Tariff you can generate 21p for every unit of energy you produce even if you use it yourself and if you don’t use it you can sell it back to the National Grid at an even higher rate.
So now that we’ve discussed just some of the advantages of solar power next time you ask yourself ‘is  solar power worth it?’ just stop and think where we’d be if nobody made any contribution to saving our planet. Surely anything which allows us to continue living in such a wonderful environment is worth the commitment?

Solar Power Advantages and Disadvantages

When it comes to converting your energy supply to a renewable source, as with every huge decision you make you’ll want to know you’re making the right one. This is why here at Solar King before you make the switch we want to ensure you’ve considered all of the solar power advantages and disadvantages.
So let us begin with the advantages of solar power, an area we here at Solar King could happily discuss all day long.
As an energy source which is completely renewable, no matter how much energy we use in a day we can still feel safe in the knowledge that once a new day begins, the sun will again rise and continue to do so for the foreseeable future – a benefit which unfortunately isn’t the case with our rapidly diminishing fossil fuel resources.

Renewability and reliability aside, solar power as well as causing absolutely no noise pollution also creates absolutely no pollution…full stop. In comparison to our current energy supply which produces tonnes of harmful greenhouse gases that are slowly destroying our planet, one of advantage of solar is that it is a very welcome alternative. So while you’re busy thinking about how much you’re contributing to saving our environment, with solar power you don’t even have to worry about the maintenance of your system too. Solar cells require very little maintenance and with no moving parts it really is impossible to damage. All your system needs is a quick annual clean and it will continue supplying you with energy for an average of forty years.
So now you’ve discovered the advantages it’s time to look at areas of concern (or ‘disadvantages’) when it comes to solar panels.
Many people are deterred from solar power because of the initial costs, however once you’ve made your initial purchase, you no longer have to fork out for expensive, traditional energy bills every month and will in turn generate huge savings, and even allow you to take advantage of the feed in tariff. Not to mention you can generate your own income with the government schemes available. But what about the fact that here in the UK we face limited days of sunshine? Well you’ll be pleased to know that solar panels actually rely on daylight rather than sunlight, which means that even on a cloudy day, your system can still provide you with energy it converts from direct sunlight or from energy which it has stored from previous days.
So now you know the solar power pros and cons, we hope we’ve made your decision that little bit easier and if you need any more persuading feel free to give us a call.
