Disappointing service and installation
Very disappointed with service from Swyft Energy. We saved for many years to have solar units installed and Swyft were initially very slick and happy to take our money. However, installation and quality of work was very disorganised and untidy.
When the electricians came to install they informed us that they had not been given any works sheet so they didn't know what had been agreed with the sales agents. They were helpful in talking us through the process and carried out their work very professionally. It's a pity the rest of the Swyft organisation were not as competent as the two electricians.
We were also told that there would be some ducting/cables running down the outside of the house which was fine. We did not expect such heavy, commercial looking piping to be fitted to a residential property though. For the price we paid I'm sure that something more aesthetically pleasing could have been installed.
Have not received any follow up or courtesy calls from Swyft Energy since to see if we're happy with everything.
New Boiler by Swyft
We were very happy with our new boiler from Swyft, a fantastic company to deal with, very professional, from the staff in the office dealing with all our queries at the start, to the lovely guy Eoin who came out to assess the job and expertly installed by Paul Depuis..very happy with the service provided, excellent price and would definitely recommend them.
Seamless process from receiving quote…
Seamless process from receiving quote to system operation thanks to all involved must give a mention to Shane Kavanagh of the installation team who educated and advised me through the whole operation

Clean job, great value
Excellent job, extremely clean. You would not know the works had taken place. Cables were dropped two floors from the attic to the fuse board with no disruption to the house.
Great value too, they are now owned by Bord Gais so I would expect the post purchase support to be good.
Excellent process from start to finish
Excellent process from start to finish. di an excellent job of the installation with wiring all hidden inside the house.
Appalling aftercare
We were one of five houses to have our solar panels installed just over a year ago. Unfortunately there was some delay in our installation as the company had only noticed on the day that there was an issue with some lighting in our garden. Once that they got going, the installers were very good but the after-care has been abysmal. We have had significant issues with pigeons roosting underneath the solar panels despite this being raised beforehand and we now have pigeon excrement all over our place. The company has been extremely slow to respond and required several prompts by email and phone calls. It very much feels that they have simply washed their hands of us the minute the installation was complete and we are sorry to say, we would no longer recommend this company.
I had my solar panels installed by…Swyft energy
I had my solar panels installed by Swyft Energy on my cottage.
Everything was made easy by the lads very professional service from start to finish, electricians even took time to set up app on my phone and explained how to use it.
I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to get solar panels installed in their home.
Excellent Installation Teams
I deliberately waited a period of time to see just how effective the Solar Panel / Battery system solution would work out before posting any review and I've been very impressed even after a few short weeks in terms of the effectiveness of the system and the savings already being delivered. The installation teams (Solar Panels and Electrical teams) were excellent with a very professional approach in how they did the installation. All cabling and equipment was very neatly, tidily and securely installed. In addition, the teams are to be commended on their overall professionalism in terms of their personal behavior, the very easy to understand and informative communication style and indeed their overall work ethic. They certainly represented the Swyft company in the best possible way and are a credit to the company.
Only one minor issue arose and it related to the Sales / Quotation process rather than the Solution Installation. It relates to Swyft Sales personnel not being very clear or transparent with their pricing between the initial quotation and final invoicing with some spurious / inconsistent approaches when using discounts. Whilst the final cost was what was agreed, how it was calculated and how it related to the original quote was very misleading. Also, the promised follow up call from the sales, post the system installation team didn't happen.
First class team
The sales representative was very knowledgeable on the system. The team arrived on time and were super efficient in their work. The whole process was seamlessly executed.
Paid €99 to a rep on the day of…
Paid €99 to a rep on the day of consultation which was refundable in 'ten minutes' should we have change our mind (only company to request this). This refund took multiple calls and emails in order to be processed. We eventually got the refund 4 weeks later. Phone number has 'office now closed' even during working hours. Very unprofessional and more expensive than other suppliers for the exact same project. Steer clear IMO. We waited for the refund before posting review.
Great response to an issue raised
Had an issue with my boiler system and was extremely impressed with the response and the resolution of the issue which was not caused by Swft or their original installation.
Top marks for their response and help
Very happy customer …
I recently had solor panels installed by Swyft Energy. From the moment that I met with their representative at the door I was met with professionalism and courtesy. He made the whole process so easy. I would highly recommend them. I also state their tradesmen and fitters worked to such a high standard that you would hardly know they were in the house. They kept us informed every step of the way .
Fantastic service
I ordered my solar panels through Swyft energy and from start to finish a fantastic company to deal with. Only issue I had was the Electrican was delayed in attending so that held me up a few days but the company was in touch and kept me up to date. Through the process I was dealing with Hamza and if I owned a company I would love to have him working in it, he was top class.

I found the whole experience from initial contact to the instillation very excellent.
Installation of the Solar Panels, and subsequent commissioning.

We had a 10 panel system installed in early October this year. From the initial enquiry to installation the process was very easy. We dealt with Chris Leahy in the Cork office he was a pleasure to deal with answering all and any questions we had and there were many. The lads who did the installation and the Electricians were excellent. The follow up from Chris was excellent We would highly recommend if you are considering getting a system installed Give Chris a call.

The Process from initial contact to completed installation was excellent there was no issue . everything was arranged and completed when they said it was going to be done
Honestly, I’m really disappointed.
I reached out to this company through their website to get a gas boiler installed. They sent me an email and even called, which seemed promising at first. However, when their specialist came over, they didn’t provide any clear information, and I never heard back from them after that. It left me feeling like the company isn’t well-organized or capable of delivering the services they offer. Honestly, I’m really disappointed.
Fast, easy, professional
Couldn't fault Swyft throughout the whole experience. The price was on par with other companies but from start to finish they were great to deal with. Isack sorted everything out for us, the installers were here and gone in half a day as were the electricians, and they all did an unreal job. Couldn't really recommend them more.
