Ive had my solar panels for several years and were very impressed with the service I received so UTS were my first go to choice. I had UTS come back last year and fit an ASHP which I have been using since. I have to say that it is paying dividends with keeping my bills at an all time minimum and always having hot water. Highly recommend UTS for their help, professionalism and knowledge and selling me what I need to save money. Great company.

Our system went down due to a replacement Internet hub, a quick call to the office and we were advised that an engineer would call and help us reconnect, sadly both my wife and I use Samsung phones and reconnection requires an I-Phone. The engineer completed this within one hour and by close of play the same day we had generated £15.00 income from a 7.7 system, well done and thank you, Use the Sun.

Excellent job and we would definitely recommend Use the Sun to others. Their advisor Dean was especially helpful in so many ways.

Really pleased I found Use the Sun as our solar and Powerwall installer. We have 26 panels and 2 Powerwalls (27kwh). They made the daunting process so easy and kept in touch at all times without being pushy until we were ready to commit. Our bills have fallen by more than expected and it feels good to be pretty much energy independent over the summer even with two electric cars. During the winter we will use the batteries to charge off peak so hope to pay very little peak electric prices - we expect to have some peak cost occasionally due to the two electric cars.

I don’t usually leave reviews as don’t get the time but this time I thought I would as the experience was great from start to finish .
I was recommended Use The Sun by a friend who recently had Solar and Battery storage installed by them so I decided to get two other companies in first then I would arrange for Use The Sun to come see us. What impressed me about Use The Sun was they asked me lots of questions about my electricity usage and what times of the day I used more power than normal asked questions like if I was planning an EV or Hot Tub in the near future.
I have a bungalow with a large south facing roof where the other two companies wanted to sell me as many panels and batteries as possible Use The Sun designed a system for my family’s requirements knowing I could also add more storage in the future from start to finish they where great ,
And a Big thanks to the installation team they where fantastic cleaned up everything after they had finished if there was one thing I could moan about was the scaffolding came. Down 3 days after installation however I do understand they where a third party company and I did get a chance to clean the gutters out !

Within the last month, I had an air source heat pump installed from this company.
Unfortunately, due to the energy crisis, the running cost have more or less doubled. So now I have had solar and battery installed by this company, it has brought my running cost right down again.
Thank you Use The Sun.

I used this business to install a complete solar energy system (panels, inverters and batteries) Excellent from beginning to end. The initial consultation with Dean was very informative, was given a 2 week cool off period (in case I changed my mind) and the system was installed and working in 1 Day (it was a big job) I've had no issues and the system has been in up and running for 10 months. I left it some time before writing this review that I wanted to assure the quality of work and technology. The company also went out of their way to get me additional batteries. 10/10. I have recommended this company to many friend who have used them.

From the early stages of design concept, through implementation and aftercare they have excelled expectations via the exceptional customer service that they deliver. They are extremely helpful, patient and understanding throughout the process. They clearly have a complete grasp on the industry that they trade within and this enables them to offer accurate advice. Highly recommend this company for your renewable requirements our experience which ran smoothly was an installation of solar Panels, battery and EV charger which we are very happy with the system and its performance.

Hi Guys,
Sorry for the delay in putting up my experience as I promised, been busy and to be honest forgot. This is the second time I have used Use The Sun the first time was to install Solar PV on my property over 10 years ago that experience prompted me to seek them out again when I required an air to air system to be fitted. Mate cant fault the experience from start to finish, no pushy salesmen, surveyor was 20 mins earlier than booked so sat on driveway, got on with the survey any questions asked by myself were promptly answered. The team arrived and did a faultless install James ran me through the controls and the do's and don'ts cleared up and left. Great install great experience would definitely recommend them and when my boiler finally gives up the ghost I will go back to them for a quote on an air source.

Wow what a wonderful company, my solar installation was completed today just in time for the Summer! From start to finish the experience of dealing with this company has been amazing, looking forward to having my ASHP installed with you guys in the next few weeks

Excellent installation teams worked over two weeks to install large system at Newham Riding School for Disabled. Both teams very friendly tidy considerate (about the horses) and accommodating. Scaffolders ditto. Overall no complaints & would not hesitate to recommend. Admin could have been a little sharper

We used use the sun to update our existing systems. They installed a new inverter and we were happy. We had a problem with our hot water system controller ( agreed old system) and an engineer installed new controller nice as pie. Told us what he would do to improve things vs next time he came. Rang last week for help and they don’t want to know us. Pretty aggressive. But no explanation for change in opinion which is the main thing I do not understand.

We really struggled to navigate finding a company to install an air source heat pump. Use the Sun, was recommended to us. From the start, the approach was professional and of high quality. The installers were really skilled and efficient. They left no mess and explained our questions. Totally satisfied with the service we received.
