ANYONE looking to install solar panels would do well to talk to Gordon Betts at Dajon Electrical Services, who takes a refreshingly realistic approach.

The contractor is keen to share the pros and cons of installing solar panels and works with customers to ensure a decision is taken once all factors have been taken into consideration.

Dajon Electrical Services, which has been installing the panels for four years, currently focuses on domestic installations but believes many businesses are missing an opportunity.

Gordon explained: “There are so many claims and counter claims made in the industry but we believe in assessing each customer’s circumstances. We are not a sales team, we provide you with the truth about the viability of having solar on your roof.

For instance is the roof facing the right way? Are there any shading issues? Is your roof structurally sound? We believe if the property suits solar panels there are real benefits to be made.”

These include:

• Free electricity reducing annual electricity bills

• Tax-free payment on electricity generated from your utility supplier guaranteed for 20 years

• An anticipated 15 per cent return on your investment per annum. It is unlikely you can invest your money safer in anything else

• Reducing carbon footprint and slowing down global warming to do your bit for the community

Any customer needing additional reassurance can take comfort from Gordon’s own commitment to solar panels.

He said: “I don’t believe in telling people how good something is and then don’t even have it myself. At my home my pv array is west facing and has a fair amount of shading and yet it’s performing as well as a south facing pv array based on the average data figures provided. So I’m over the moon with how it works and now the prices have come right down. It’s very affordable, generating 15 per cent returns or more on investment.

“My utility supplier is EON and they have a tracker so you can see how you’ve reduced your power usage and I’ve reduced mine by 40 per cent.”

Dajon Electrical undertakes a wide range of industrial, commercial and domestic installations. For further information contact 01933 664355 or see the website at www.dajonelectrical.com
