About APN Solar
APN Solar helps homeowners find suitable solar professionals and request quotes for solar panels, battery storage, solar inverters, solar optimisers, solar repairs, solar servicing, solar panel cleaning, EV charging and related home energy services.
APN Solar is part of the wider APN approach to helping homeowners connect with trusted professionals for home improvement and energy-related projects.
APN Solar is not a solar installer, electrical contractor or product manufacturer. Our role is to help connect homeowners with suitable professionals who may be able to provide advice, surveys, quotations and installation or maintenance services.
How Our Service Works
Homeowners can use APN Solar to submit an enquiry about solar panels or related services.
Once an enquiry is submitted, APN Solar may review the information provided and pass the enquiry to one or more relevant solar professionals or installer partners.
Those professionals may then contact the homeowner directly to discuss the project, arrange a survey, provide advice or issue a quotation.
APN Solar does not guarantee that every enquiry will result in contact from an installer, a quotation, a site visit or an accepted project.
Homeowner Enquiries
When you submit an enquiry through APN Solar, you agree that the information you provide may be used to assess your project and passed to suitable professionals who may be able to help.
You should make sure that the information you provide is accurate and complete.
This may include your name, contact details, property location, project type, photographs, energy information, roof details, existing solar system information or any other details relevant to the enquiry.
Incorrect or incomplete information may affect the advice, quotation or suitability of any installer recommendation.
Installer Introductions
APN Solar may introduce homeowners to solar installers, maintenance providers, repair specialists or other home energy professionals.
Any introduction made by APN Solar is not a guarantee of suitability, workmanship, pricing, availability, financial saving, planning approval or project outcome.
Homeowners should carry out their own checks before appointing any installer or contractor. This may include checking qualifications, accreditations, insurance, reviews, warranties, product details, quotation terms and previous work.
The final decision to appoint an installer or contractor is always the homeowner’s responsibility.
No Contract for Installation With APN Solar
APN Solar does not normally enter into contracts for the installation, repair, servicing, cleaning or maintenance of solar systems.
Any contract for works will usually be between the homeowner and the installer or contractor appointed by the homeowner.
APN Solar is not responsible for the terms, pricing, workmanship, products, guarantees, warranties, delays, defects, aftercare or disputes relating to work carried out by third-party installers or contractors.
Homeowners should read and understand any quotation, contract, warranty or payment terms before proceeding with an installer.
Quotations and Pricing
Any prices shown on the APN Solar website are for general guidance only unless expressly stated otherwise.
Solar panel costs, battery costs, inverter costs, repair costs, cleaning costs and maintenance costs can vary depending on the property, system size, roof access, scaffolding, equipment, installer, location and technical requirements.
Quotes provided by installers are the responsibility of those installers.
APN Solar does not guarantee that any quotation will be the cheapest available or that a particular price will remain available.
Vetted or Approved Installers
APN Solar may refer to installers or professionals as approved, vetted, verified or trusted.
This means that APN Solar may have reviewed certain information about the installer or professional, such as business details, service category, location, public profile, reviews, experience, insurance, accreditations or suitability for the type of enquiry.
This does not remove the need for homeowners to carry out their own checks.
APN Solar does not guarantee that an installer will be suitable for every project, that their work will be free from defects or that a homeowner will be satisfied with the final result.
Planning Permission and Consents
Some solar panel installations may require planning permission, listed building consent, freeholder consent, landlord consent, leaseholder approval, building control approval, grid connection approval or other permissions.
APN Solar may provide general information about planning and property considerations, but this is not a substitute for formal professional advice.
Homeowners are responsible for ensuring that all necessary permissions, approvals and consents are obtained before work starts.
Installers may advise on some of these matters, but responsibility should be clearly agreed before proceeding.
Solar Performance and Savings
Any information on APN Solar about savings, payback periods, export tariffs, generation, battery storage, energy bills or return on investment is provided for general guidance only.
Actual performance and savings depend on many factors, including roof orientation, shading, system size, equipment, installation quality, household electricity use, weather, energy prices, export tariff rates and future changes in circumstances.
APN Solar does not guarantee any particular level of saving, income, payback period, property value increase or system performance.
Homeowners should request project-specific calculations from installers and consider taking independent advice where appropriate.
