Use The Sun Omdömen 

I used this business to install a complete solar energy system (panels, inverters and batteries) Excellent from beginning to end. The initial consultation with Dean was very informative, was given a 2 week cool off period (in case I changed my mind) and the system was installed and working in 1 Day (it was a big job) I've had no issues and the system has been in up and running for 10 months. I left it some time before writing this review that I wanted to assure the quality of work and technology. The company also went out of their way to get me additional batteries. 10/10. I have recommended this company to many friend who have used them.

Highly recommend this company
They have been fantastic
From 1st meeting to installation everything has been spot on , great communication, all team were very helpful and polite. So pleased with the solar panels and battery , and these guys are always there with advise.
So glad I used this company

From the early stages of design concept, through implementation and aftercare they have excelled expectations via the exceptional customer service that they deliver. They are extremely helpful, patient and understanding throughout the process. They clearly have a complete grasp on the industry that they trade within and this enables them to offer accurate advice. Highly recommend this company for your renewable requirements our experience which ran smoothly was an installation of solar Panels, battery and EV charger which we are very happy with the system and its performance.

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the delay in putting up my experience as I promised, been busy and to be honest forgot. This is the second time I have used Use The Sun the first time was to install Solar PV on my property over 10 years ago that experience prompted me to seek them out again when I required an air to air system to be fitted. Mate cant fault the experience from start to finish, no pushy salesmen, surveyor was 20 mins earlier than booked so sat on driveway, got on with the survey any questions asked by myself were promptly answered. The team arrived and did a faultless install James ran me through the controls and the do's and don'ts cleared up and left. Great install great experience would definitely recommend them and when my boiler finally gives up the ghost I will go back to them for a quote on an air source.

Wow what a wonderful company, my solar installation was completed today just in time for the Summer! From start to finish the experience of dealing with this company has been amazing, looking forward to having my ASHP installed with you guys in the next few weeks

Excellent installation teams worked over two weeks to install large system at Newham Riding School for Disabled. Both teams very friendly tidy considerate (about the horses) and accommodating. Scaffolders ditto. Overall no complaints & would not hesitate to recommend. Admin could have been a little sharper

We used use the sun to update our existing systems. They installed a new inverter and we were happy. We had a problem with our hot water system controller ( agreed old system) and an engineer installed new controller nice as pie. Told us what he would do to improve things vs next time he came. Rang last week for help and they don’t want to know us. Pretty aggressive. But no explanation for change in opinion which is the main thing I do not understand.

We really struggled to navigate finding a company to install an air source heat pump. Use the Sun, was recommended to us. From the start, the approach was professional and of high quality. The installers were really skilled and efficient. They left no mess and explained our questions. Totally satisfied with the service we received.

A genuine soft sales approach. I had a very laid back and relaxed chat with Dean and he sent me a quote with a variety of options. I had 15 panels , a car charger , 3 batteries installed. Good comms on a shortage for the Islanding option - that will be done Feb. No money upfront it was paid after the job was done. Team worked hard all day and got everything installed - mess removed and units running on the App. Very pleased and happy to recommend. A genuine good installer.

Extremely good from start to finish, the scaffolder fitters were very professional, the fiiters were excellent even on the coldest of days. Fitted well, no mess, all boxes and waste removed. Would highly recommend.

Excellent prompt clean job done by polite knowledgeable workers. Office support also good

Overall I think this is a good company (in an industry that that is probably unusual) and I have recommended to friends.
A number of my neighbours have used as well.
I think their terms of trade are excellent. Like the ring-fencing of client money and I didn't need to pay anything before installation. They chased quickly for payment which is fair enough.
I had a 16 solar panel system fitted with 3 x 2.5kw batteries and am very pleased with it.
The office are very responsive.
Minor gripe is that the installation team need to be a bit more customer oriented. Should have coverings for carpets that they are walking over in outside boots and left debris (screws, wire, fixings etc) around the roof - only took me 10 minutes to clear but shouldn't need to. Hope that is constructive feedback for improvement.
Anyway, overall a good company who care about the service they provide.

I am left with mixed feelings after installation.
The installation went quick and as agreed, everything was fine. Until they handled the job over and informed us that we are not getting batteries, as the is a shortage. 15 minutes after the installer team left , the woman from office called and demanded payment " preferably this afternoon", when i mentioned missing batteries, she said we can hold to the cost of the batteries until they installed, but the rest must be paid asap. The was no informing us that we are not getting batteries, no approximate dates for actually delivery/installation them.
I was assured that we are getting them asap, but here were are, 2 month later, batteries are still not installed.
With the cost of installation we were counting on saving on energy bill, but we can't really do this currently to the full extend: we use most energy on evenings/afternoons, taking from the grid instead of using our accumulated.
I will bump the rate and update review once the situation changed

Update: The batteries were installed, they get in touch with me straight away after they received it and installation went on agreed date, everything was perfect.
The lady I mentioned before contacted me a few days later asking if I'm happy with installation.I was happy and paid the outstanding sum straight away.

Overall I am happy with Use The Sun and would recommend them to anyone who wants a job done.
I'm leaving the first bit of review on purpose, I want to show that they do keep their promises and learn from mistakes. If I'd ever need something else done I'd definitely contact them again.
Thank you!

Have you ever come across double glazing salesmen in the 80's & 90's?
This is what you will experience with Use the Sun.
Don't bother if you looking for solar, all they want to do is get you to buy an air source heat pump.
1.5 hours of my life I will never get back.

Update, my review is totally accurate, honest and fair. If the company does not like poor reviews, then do something about it rather than blaming the customer.

Use The Sun have within the last week installed a 12 solar panel 2 battery system to my property. The quality of the workmanship was second to none, the installers kept me informed during every process of the installation, fully explained how the system and smart App worked and cleaned up and removed ALL the rubbish after them. My only concern was that the scaffolding that had been erected would not be removed after the installation was complete, but to my amazement the scaffolding guys turned up just as the installers were tidying up! I cannot recommend Use The Sun enough as it was a thoroughly worry free experience for us from day one. Well done and thak you to everyone concerned

It is obvious to all the need of renewable energy and being warned by our energy company to two increases in cost - April and October - money siting in the bank gets 1.5 % and loses value yearly, we decided to go for solar panels.

“Use the Sun” are near to us (Romford) and apart from a minor problem of communication, they proved efficient and very helpful. Sales appeared promptly. The Surveyor drove all the way from Suffolk to make sure he got here asap. He actually listened to what we had to say and adjusted his plan for roof solar panels accordingly.

Scaffold up efficiently after the very minor mix-up - back and front of the house so a little more expensive, but maximum exposure - to the Sun that is!

The Fitters were very good and very helpful - the each take two sugars in their coffee. Explained all very well. The installation was completed within the day.

Silly me! I should have agreed to batteries. After a day of good sunshine I contacted “Use the Sun” and asked them to fit batteries - they were advised on the original quotation. within 24 hours the fitters returned and installed 3 batteries - all done in about an hour.

Overall, “Use the Sun” were efficient, on time and most helpful. Our panels are working well just in time for the April increase. Save the planet and your cash, the banks give us very little, but money off the energy bill is a “No Brainer.

I would recommend “Use the Sun” as a 5* outfit.

Our sincere thanks to them.

We had fitment of heat pump and associated cylinders outside our property. All departments were excellent, Les the sales representative was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with, Andy the specialist had some excellent ideas to help us site the equipment in a very awkward area, the install team worked extremely hard and completed the work in 2 days as promised, neat and tidy and very respectful. The admin team are also great to deal with, very responsive and understanding. All in all Use The Sun are a fantastic company to deal with, thanks so much for everything.

Moved house just before Christmas into a house heated only by 2 night storage heaters and an old log burner. Got in touch with Use the sun, they talked me through the process and costs, they managed to get me heating by 20th January. It was installed with complete wet system and 8 radiators over 4 days. Nice workmen with good knowledge of system.

Wow so pleased in the way I have been looked after from the first moment of contact with this company. I had a green homes voucher which came with complications which use the sun helped me through it. The girls in the office always phoned back and replied to my many emails to the point they knew my voice. Then came installation and what a credit them guys are to the company. All pipe work very neat and tidy all put in with no problem went through everything with me. Unlike a lot of companies now a days they took all the rubbish away with them

Thank you everyone at use the sun

I have nothing but praise for this company. Their customer service is excellent. They respond promptly to any questions, no matter how trivial, and are always extremely helpful. Andy and the rest of the installation team that fitted our air source heat pump were all very friendly and efficient. They were courteous and took time to explain things. At all times, I felt as if I was in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Use the Sun.
