Client Challenges in Gwelup for Solar Installation

• Double-Storey Steep Roof: This new build featured a slightly challenging tin roof design with particular screw lines requiring careful planning.
• Limited Optimal Orientation Roof Space: The roof’s design and position presented minor challenges for panel placement, necessitating a strategic layout to ensure maximum energy capture and performance.

Our Tailored Approach for Gwelup Residential Solar Installation

• Site visit: With all our battery installations, we understand that there are strict guidelines as to where we can install them. We mitigated any issues by carrying out a site visit to accurately measure location and distances – ensuring no last minute cost surprises.
• Strategic Design: Advanced shading analysis was conducted to optimise the panel layout, maximising sunlight exposure. Recognising the unique roof orientations, stringing the panels required solar expertise in understanding specific panels’ electrical properties and the inverter’s capabilities to ensure seamless integration.
• Landscape rotation: Some panels were installed in a landscape orientation, optimising available roof space.
• Premium Equipment: High-quality panels and inverters were chosen to ensure long-term energy performance and independence.
