Ecowise Renewables Limited

We recently had Solar Panels (17), Growatt Inverter and Growatt 6.5KWh Battery, plus all the necessary Electronics, installed by this Company and would like to say that they were First Class in everyway. We would certainly recommend them 100% to anyone looking to have Solar Panels installed now or in the future. All the people involved were excellent at their jobs including :- first phone conversation from a lovely lady in their office, who arranged an appointment with Les (Director) to visit and discuss what options were available, this was a pleasure as he did not use hard sell tactics and was very knowledgeable, my Wife was very keen, but she’s more interested in the fact that she wants to have a Hot Tub, so therefore decided that a couple of extra Panels would be needed to the installation, Barry the Scaffolder arrived prior to installation to erect all the necessary Safety equipment, on the day of installation Danny the Roofer, Chris the Electrician and his apprentice Sonny arrived, they were all very polite, clean and tidy in their work, Malcolm also kept us posted on everything. Best of all, your getting “FREE” Electricity and getting Paid for what you Export to the Grid, helping the Environment, plus, adding Value to your Property. My Wife and myself would like to thank this Company and will probably have some Extra Panels, plus another Battery installed in the very near future.

Extremely happy with the whole process undertaken by Ecowise Renewables Ltd. Having already completed extensive research with lots of other installers, it was refreshing to deal with someone who listened to what we wanted to achieve, rather than what they wanted to sell you. Everything was explained clearly and the price was competitive. We really appreciated the honest feedback and advice given. The installation day went very smoothly, and everything was completed to plan. Very happy with the system and love running our washing machine from the solar during the day!

The 2 people who came to do the work completed it in a timely manner despite the atrocious weather conditions. All working satisfactorily. Cheers Ian

Very efficient and informative first visit. The best system was suggested and quoted for. Fitting was arranged relatively quickly and carried out very efficiently. The system was up and running immediately and proved very effective. Strongly recommend this company. Other installations carried out for friends to an equal standard.

April last year Ecowise installed an additional 3.6kw, inverter and 6.5kw battery. I already had 3 kw on the south and west facing sides of the house providing 2,500 KW pa. The new panels went on the east facing and after a year they have produced another 2,500 KW. As my total cost for energy including gas has now fallen to a few hundred pounds for the year I am more than satisfied with the system installed by Ecowise. It is important to get a hybrid inverter to allow importing cheap electricity at night during the winter and to export when the highest price is being paid. I only wish that I had more roof space and perhaps a bigger battery.

since having the solar panels and battery's fitted it has cut are bill and on the day of insulation they where polite and professional and all done in one day . they explain very thing to us before leave and making sure any mess was clear away .

My PV meter appeared to be displaying erratic data. A phone call to Ecowise Renewables led to a next-day visit by Malcolm. He was friendly, diligent and proactive in seeking the source of the problem. A new meter was eventually called for which was subsequently replaced by his engineer, who was efficient and very pleasant. I was very impressed with the overall quality of the service, and would not hesitate to recommend Ecowise to others.

We had 15 Vertex S solar panels, two Growatt 6.5KWh batteries and one Growatt Inverter fitted (plus all the control electronics) and have been very happy with the work that was carried out in two days and the solar panel and battery performance in the month since the installation. A few minor niggles: 1/ I would advise that a minimum amount of roof tile disruption is carried out; better to route wires around the barge boards than try and hide them under tiles which may then need further roofing work. 2/ The Growatt monitor app talks to a server in China and it's response time is painfully slow - so that putting a kettle on, for example, does not show up as a kWh load for a few minutes. 3/ The Chinese Growatt server can go down and lose your house's performance data for a day or two.

Ecowise took time to visit us before quoting, unlike several others companies which worked off satellite maps. They explained clearly the work that would be required and also put us in touch with other customers so we could get feedback from them. The work was done in the timeframes agreed. They modified the installation slightly on the day to best suit our house, explaining what they proposed and why. The installation was smooth, the explanation of the app was good and the site was left almost as they found it. The installation team was friendly and efficient and were happy to explain what they were doing at key points when we asked. Finally, the system has operated perfectly in the six weeks or so since it was installed.

A very prompt and efficient service. Great advice before placing the order for Solar panels and a battery system. Very professional installation, neat and tidy work. Everything was completed on time and as I was informed it would be. I have also had a number of calls with since the installation was completed and they have always been happy to help I am very happy with the results and I would highly recommend Ecowise Renewables

We chose Ecowise for a number of reasons, which reviews, accreditation and professionalism. We wanted a local company to easily sort out problems should they occur (there were none). Quote from Lee Reynolds on Tuesday was reasonable and decided to go ahead, on reflection this was a good move because they were one hundred percent good to their word. Scaffolding went up the following bank holiday! Work started on Tuesday 8am and by 3pm they had more or less finished and scaffolding down on Wednesday. Every concern about wiring routing was addressed and apart from looking at the roof or in the under-stairs cupboard, there are no visible signs of the installation, brilliant! To be fair the house layout helped, but they put a lot of work in as well, confirming I'd chosen the right company. Communication before, during and after the job was very good. Since installation we have fed about 420 kWh back to the grid (which we are now getting paid for) and have consumed virtually nothing from the grid over 1.5 months. We used to worry about the children leaving devices on, running around turning everything off the moment it wasn't needed. Now we don’t worry. Do more washing / dishwasher loads, using a lot less gas into the bargain as well by heating water through other means. Only regret is not doing it sooner.

We wanted to know what the cost of putting solar panels on the house would be. We opted for Ecowise Renewables Ltd as they had good reviews. A energy advisor Peter Storey arrived at the agreed time and explained the system and was very knowledgeable he answered all my questions and I must say I trusted him. He carried out a survey of my house and said we could fit eleven or twelve max solar panels on the roof with an inverter and battery. The price was agreed and deposit paid. The installation was carried out three weeks later, a team turned up and started at 8am and were completed by 4pm. Kris the electrician explained how the system worked and also downloaded an app on my phone so we can monitor it. The workmen made sure they left the site clean and tidy. A week later we ordered a second battery as the single battery was being filled to the max by the free energy out there (the sun). I know we are in the summer months, so we will see a lot of sun. Our electricity cost was between £30-35 per week before the solar panels, this last week it was under £13. Great job Ecowise.

12 panel system with battery installed over 2 days. Scaffolding erected day before to minimise delay. Friendly helpful workmen. Minor installation issues dealt with efficiently and corrected even on a Bank Holiday, listened to our requirements. Electrics installation was not easy on our property but electrician persevered and used his initiative and all additional fuse box etc. was accommodated in original meter box. Power generation achieved immediately and app installed to allow us to monitor. 94 percent of our power from panels over the first month

The team arrived promptly on schedule. The work was conducted with minimum disruption and is very neat and tidy. The system is performing well and as predicted. Would recommend using this company.

Contacted Ecowise after research from customer reviews and Which reviews. Arranged an appointment for a visit consultation with one of the Directors, who arrived on time and went through our options. Answered all our prepared questions with actual facts and real data and at no point made us feel pressurised. Happy with the quotation and arranged for installation which was performed in double quick time. The team arrived early Monday morning and completed that day. Very helpful, obliging and professional team. The system is working very well and any additional after sales questions are answered promptly. Very happy with dealing with Ecowise from sales, installation, and support and pleased to have chosen them for the work.

We had considered solar panels for so long. Too long. But with electricity prices the way are, and the use of a battery, now seemed the time to act. We’re glad we did. They came around the week before and discussed our location (S.E facing), options, price and potential savings. The salesman/surveyor did a very good job we thought. We felt reassured, especially as we could seek immediate references from one or two nearby people who had recently used them. Pricing seemed reasonable. Everything went well. And like clockwork. First the scaffolding crew. Scaffolding went up on one day. What an art that is. The team to put up the 13 panels came the next morning, the same day their electrician installed the battery and inverter - and got us all set up on the app. Then the next day the scaffolders came back to take away their framework. All very efficient. Done by good teams of guys. The app works very well at providing the data on output, use, battery..export. It’s very informative. The panels were tested by some heavy winds immediately after installation. I was glad to see everything was still nicely in place after! We received the installation handover pack a week after installation by email. MCS Certificate, warranty documents, other docs - runs to 60 pages. All in all, very impressed. Quickly up and running with no problems.

We have been very impressed by the work undertaken by professional and friendly team. The whole system was explained to us clearly and all our options by very knowledgeable advisor. The company were very flexible when we had to delay the fitting and kept us fully informed at each step of the way including how to get the best from the system. We are very pleased and happy to recommend to others.

We asked Ecowise Renewables Ltd to install solar panels, anti-pigeon mesh, and battery for excess energy in our garage. We were impressed by the sales representative and the information he gave us. There was no hard sell unlike the other companies we spoke to. The sales rep was clear what we could expect from the panels and listened to our needs. A solution was put together and he recommended a bigger battery which would store power to use through the night which other companies did not suggest. In hindsight, the choice of battery was correct as it powers our home throughout the night and still has capacity in the morning. If we had gone with a different contractor we would not have had enough capacity. Despite the larger battery the quote was still extremely competitive with flexible installation slots. All contractors arrived on time and were courteous and respectful of our property. They explained everything as they installed the units. All installed equipment is top quality. The units on the roof look nice and tidy and the wire mesh was installed immediately after fitting panels. Installation of the panels and battery took one day. (Scaffolding was erected the day before and removed the day after). The company inspected the final work and have been in touch since. Our electric bill has significantly decreased. We would highly recommend this company. They made us feel valued throughout the process.
