Renewables for Projects
Over the years small developments and individual projects have led the way in adopting new technology in an attempt to differentiate themselves from typical house builders. These projects lend themselves to renewables as the houses are often high quality, highly insulated and often require renewables as part of planning constraints.
Here at Swift we have the experience to tailor our services for these sort of bespoke and new build projects, whether this is a small extension or a large new build we can offer an all-in-one package for the heating, ventilation, solar PV with battery storage and the first fix water services.
Services
The services we off for new builds and renovations include the design, supply & installation of the following;
- Underfloor heating
- Full heating systems
- Hot and cold water systems
- Heat pump systems
- Mechanical ventilation heat recovery with cooling
- Air to air systems
- Solar PV and battery storage
Benefits
Many of our bespoke and newbuild projects benefit from Swift being the sole contractor for the heating and renewables needs of the homeowner or builder, by being the only point of contact for the project manager we are able to make sure deadlines are met, budgets are kept and the result is high quality.
From our point of view, being the sole contractor means we can control the design, installation and commissioning of the system, ensuring all elements of the installation work together to create the best living environment for the customer.
Our process
Consult
From your initial enquiry we will carry out a consolation or site survey to determine what you want or need from a solar PV system. From there we can produce a proposal along with a detailed breakdown of what your system will provide for you and how it should work including carbon savings and any savings on energy bills
Applications
If you wish to proceed with an install we then get to work on all the admin, the applications to the DNO and any further design work required. Then the scaffold goes up ready for install.
Install
Installations typically take 2 to 3 days to complete depending on the complexity of the system and whether you have an integrated battery storage system. During the install we try and minimised disruption and ensure you have power for as long as possible before having to switch it off briefly to connect the system to the grid. Most installations take place 4 to 6 weeks from your order being placed.
Handover
Once complete, we test and commission the system before getting the scaffolding removed. We then produce a handover pack containing the details of the system and your MCS certificate as well as notify the DNO letting them know the system has been commissioned. After sales support includes a monitoring package which allows us to monitor the system remotely to check operation, the system also notifies us of any errors or faults that may occur.
