Reliability

Is your chosen installer company trustworthy? How do you feel advised? How quickly do you get answers to your questions? A simple internet search quickly gives you a first impression of the craftsman's company.

The PV system – a DIY job? Our tip: leave it to a professional!

The connection from house electricity to the public power grid can only be performed by a registered and certified electrical installer. Even those wanting to attach a system to a roof on their own are not authorised to connect it to one’s own or to the public power grid. Also, you will only obtain the manufacturer’s warranty if installation is performed by a specialist. Play it safe and turn to qualified experts. This way you will avoid expensive mistakes and not take the risk of invalidating your warranty claims.
