My disability means that I have some specific requirements which have to be worked around.
Thinking of having solar panels installed in your home in Corby?
We are all facing the challenges of energy costs rising and much higher household bills. More and more customers are turning towards renewable energy sources such as solar panels. Not only will you be reducing carbon emissions by installing solar panels but you’ll also benefit from all the ‘free’ energy produced by your solar panels over many years to come.
What are solar panels?
In the electrical industry, solar panels are referred to as photovoltaic cells.
The sun's natural light energy is trapped in silicon cells within the panels, the light energy is converted into electrical energy classing this type of energy as renewable.
What are the benefits of Solar Panel installation on my Corby property?
- Payback- On average, most solar panels systems pay for themselves within a 5-7 year window. As solar panels and the inverters used have an incredibly long shelf life, around 20 years. This means all the electrical energy produced by the solar panels systems over this period is free.
- Reduced energy bills- Once your solar panels are installed and it's all systems go. You actually get an average of 1 kWh of electricity knocked off your bill everytime 1 kWh of renewable electricity is generated and consumed on your premises.
- Export payments- Renewable electricity is ‘hot stuff’! The Smart Export Guarantee or SEG is a government run scheme where energy suppliers actually pay you for any excess power that your home has generated and divert this power back to the national grid.
- Reduced greenhouse gases- Using solar panels to create your own energy at home means you’ll be generating renewable energy, emitting fewer gases such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
What happens during the solar panel installation?
Planning your installation
Once DNA Father & Sons Electrical Corby has come out to visit you during the initial inspection, we can then get to work with the planning stage.
The good news is that planning permission is not required for domestic properties as long as your building is not a listed building or located within a conservation area. We also help you when it comes to liaising with your DNO or District Network Operator to get your solar panels connected to the electricity network.
Our experienced team will communicate scaffolding needs which will need to be set up prior to installing the solar panels, we also like to discuss issues or hurdles and how best to overcome these. Minor hurdles such as weather conditions and roof conditions if it's been raining can sometimes delay installation.

We aim to complete the installation process as swiftly as possible. We are open with our customers and communicate progress every step of the way.
Once the solar panels have been installed, we talk you through the system and demonstrate how easy it is to use your newly installed solar panels.
As well as receiving the full Operations & Maintenance Manual, you will also receive the electrical certificate and solar array test report.
Installing solar panels at your property is an enormous benefit for the environment and will help reduce energy bills in the long run.
