Frequently asked questions
Does Affordable Solar Ltd offer Insurance Backed Guarantees (IBG)?
An IBG is essential — it covers the workmanship warranty if the installer ceases trading. MCS-certified installers usually offer IBG via the MCS scheme. Confirm Affordable Solar Ltd provides an IBG certificate at handover; don't accept a workmanship guarantee that's only as good as the installer's continued existence.
Does Affordable Solar Ltd install battery storage as well as solar PV?
Yes — Affordable Solar Ltd's listed services include battery storage installation. Common UK brands include Tesla Powerwall, GivEnergy, BYD, Solax and Fox ESS. Ask which brands Affordable Solar Ltd typically specs and whether they're certified installers for that brand.
Is solar still worth it in Leicester given the climate?
Leicester gets enough annual sunlight for a typical 4 kW domestic system to produce roughly 3,200–3,800 kWh/year. Payback periods are typically 8–11 years at current electricity prices. Ask Affordable Solar Ltd for site-specific yield modelling based on your roof orientation, pitch and shading.
Does Affordable Solar Ltd cover areas outside Leicester?
Many Leicestershire-based installers cover a 20–40 mile radius from their base. Affordable Solar Ltd's exact catchment isn't published on EnergyRanked — ask directly. Distance affects scheduling and travel charges; an installer 90 minutes from your property may quote more for the same work than one 20 minutes away.
What UK grants or schemes apply to a solar install with Affordable Solar Ltd?
Current UK support includes 0% VAT on residential solar PV and battery installs (HMRC zero-rating until at least 2027), the Smart Export Guarantee paying for exported electricity, and — for heat pumps — the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (England/Wales) or Home Energy Scotland Grant + Loan (Scotland). Eligibility depends on the property and the install. Confirm with Affordable Solar Ltd which apply before signing.
