Solar Panel Installers, Solar Water, Air and Ground Source Heat Pumps, Wind Turbines, Combined Heat & Power (CHP), Photovoltaic Panel EPC Quotes Cheshire
ECO grants, home improvements using renewable technology. MCS specialists for the supply, installation and commissioning of domestic and commercial equipment and providers of an (EPC) Energy Performance Certificate in Chester.
Solar Panel PV Water Heat Pump Installer Quotes Cheshire includes the supply and installation of air, water and geothermal heat pumps (subject to site conditions geothermal collectors will be installed in a drilled vertical borehole, or loops laid in a trench which is back filled). These type of pumps can provide space heating or hot water. Cogeneration or CHP is a technology that can generate heat and electricity from the same source. Micro generation systems can integrate power from several sources, for example some case studies have shown that wind powered equipment can easily be combined with heat pump technology for domestic and commercial heating requirements. To qualify installation of insulation or solar powered equipment as part of the green deal plan a domestic home or commercial premises will require an initial survey assessment which will take into consideration any previous recommendations made from an energy performance certificate.
A complete package of solutions for landlords, tenants, homeowners, social housing RSL's, housing associations and business owners is available from Green Deal Advisors Cheshire.
Grant Applications
All applicants for the "green deal" scheme must meet the basic criteria of the 'Golden Rule' which is to demonstrate that the energy saving measures provided, in terms of home or business improvement costs will not exceed the savings made through the customers energy meter. |
| Air Source Heat Pumps reduce carbon emissions and are more efficient than air conditioning units.In addition the capital cost of a heat pump can be offset by applying for the renewable heat incentive (RHI) scheme. |
 |
| Small or Large scale wind turbine installations can benefit by taking advantage of the feed in tariff scheme - providing cash back from utility providers for excess electricity generated which is exported to the grid |
 |
| Solar Panels can blend in with the roof-line by using tiles |
Recommendation - Insulate the Building To A High Standard
Prevent heat loss - ensure that the property has a level of insulation material in roof spaces and walls, either internally or externally. Other energy saving measures include the installation of Loft Insulation, Cavity Wall Insulation for homes, landlords, tenants, RSL's, social housing and housing associations, providing the eligibility criteria is met. An assessor can provide advice about the existing rating of a property. |
| Homes built with solid walls can benefit from internal/external wall insulation |
 |
| Members of the Green Deal Scheme carry a recommendation of quality mark |
Energy Performance Certificates - Domestic & Commercial
Home and small business energy saving improvements will focus on current EPC ratings for the property being inspected. Recommendations are based on existing data.If you find that you do not have an epc then instruct a qualified assessor to carry out a survey.
 |
| Recommendations report is provided on the energy performance certificate (EPC) |
 |
| Old boilers can be replaced by modern energy saving boilers |
For domestic homes a series of energy saving measures will be made available through an adviser who will determine if the homeowner will be entitled to home loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, solid wall insulation or internal wall insulation. Other improvements include heating appliances such as a replacement Grade A rated condensing central heating boiler if the existing boiler has a 'G' rating (many back boilers fall into this category). In addition, external doors with no insulation evident will be replaced by high performance insulated external doors. Keep up to date with the latest Renewable Energy News with articles and stories that are relevant to the UK consumer in Cheshire.
 |
| External doors can be draught-proofed or a complete replacement with new UPVC insulated doors |
Cheshire ECO (Energy Company Obligation) Scheme
This is an agreement to help low income households to benefit from the initiative by the big six energy companies, thus making renewables accessible to homes that require financial assistance with home improvements.Domestic and Commercial Applications for Consumers
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning
Energy Saving Gas Boiler Quotes Cheshire central heating controls, Under-floor heating, Heat recovery systems, Mechanical ventilation (non-domestic) and Flue gas recovery devices. |
| LPG, Oil and Biomass Multi-fuel Gas combi-boilers are included in the plan - upgrade an existing "G" rated boiler heating appliance in your home for free. |
An energy performance certificate rating of "D" or higher provides an opportunity to apply for photovoltaic panels and other renewable options, contact a solar specialist for example; an MCS (Microgeneration Certified) installer about cash back from a selection of solar energy products.
Inspection of Building fabric
Cavity wall insulation, Loft insulation, Flat roof insulation, Internal wall insulation, External wall insulation, Draught proofing of door and windows. Floor insulation including Heating system insulation (cylinder and pipes) Energy efficient glazing and doorsLighting, Lamps and Luminaires
Energy saving LED light fittings and lighting controls are available for non-domestic applications under the green deal plan.Water heating
Innovative hot water systems using a heat pump integrated with solar equipment and water efficient taps and showers.Geothermal Heating
Obtaining heated water from underground using a ground source heat pump can be achieved in two ways, borehole drilling using a vertical collector (installation time: typically one day on site) or by using loop collectors. |
| On site drilling for a ground source vertical collector |
Loops that are laid underground trap solar heat which can be used to supplement conventional heating methods. In addition the capital cost of a heat pump can be offset by applying for the renewable heat incentive (RHI) scheme.

A new or existing Energy Performance Certificate EPC Cheshire can be used a GDA energy assessor to provide recommendations for home or business energy efficiency measures as part of the survey assessment. A registered domestic or commercial energy assessor can also provide a new certificate if required. Get a Quote for your requirements.
Solar Panel Equipment
PV solar panels cut the cost of electricity bills by storing the sun's radiation and converting it into power, inverters store the electricity generated in batteries for later use. Roof mounted evacuated tube collectors can provide solar hot water to supplement existing water heating coupled to a solar compatible boiler and hot water cylinder (thermal store).Blogs
