Investing in solar panels for your residence in Smithfield is a prudent decision that offers substantial advantages for your property, the environment, and your financial health. By producing your own renewable and clean electricity, you stand to gain significant reductions in your electricity bills, with savings often ranging between 70% and 95%. Such impressive savings are achievable with solar panel systems that are efficiently designed and properly installed.

Our experienced team, specialising in solar PV panel and system installations, is fully accredited with SEAI registration and insurance, ensuring superior craftsmanship. We have exclusive partnerships with top manufacturers in the solar equipment sector, offering you the security of extensive warranties, typically exceeding 25 years. These warranties are vital for securing long-term financial benefits from your investment in solar panels.

The installation of solar panels is not just a wise economic choice; it also positively influences your Building Energy Rating (BER) score, often leading to an enhanced overall BER rating. This improvement can considerably increase your property’s market value, as BER ratings have become increasingly important in property appraisals. A BER score of B3 or higher could also qualify you for green mortgages with reduced interest rates, translating into significant savings over the mortgage’s duration.

In addition to the financial perks, a robust solar photovoltaic (PV) or solar PV system markedly reduces your carbon footprint. By generating clean and sustainable electricity, you contribute to protecting the environment and display a commitment to sustainable practices.

For those who have or are considering a heat pump, it’s important to note that although these systems are efficient in heating, they rely on electricity. This could lead to an increase in your electricity bills.

Homeowners in Smithfield with properties built and occupied before December 31, 2020, can take advantage of a SEAI government grant of up to €2,100 for solar panel installation. This grant offers an opportune moment to adopt solar energy, enabling you to realise substantial savings on both electricity and gas bills. Additionally, incorporating a hot water diverter system and intelligent heating controls can provide further annual savings.
