Quint Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 True, and ASG are doing a great job. We are looking at offering a credit option to give people the ability to buy their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kippax Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 cracking investment, even if you pay for it yourself You get 10% yield plus cheap electric, not many places you will get a 10% yeild on your money If you have the free install you must get the mortgage lenders permission as the roof will be leased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookingfat50 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 We were told by this company that our roof was unsuitable, yet it is the highest on the street and faces south, and with no trees around. What's that all about then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that all about then? How big is your roof? If it is not big enough for them to fit enough panels they will turn you down. ASG will pick and choose which homes to install 'FREE' panels depending on how much return they will get from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wednesday1 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I recently contacted them, they just got back saying that : 'none of tour arrays would fit as the dimensions of your roof are not compatible with any of our layouts. We only do not do customised systems. we're very sorry'. My back roof is south facing and is a large size, seems a bit odd to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisT70 Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 update on my situation- ASG didnt even bother to come out and look, stating it looked unsuitable on google earth due to trees nearby. i have since had another local company out who advised the roof is perfectly suitable, but in future i may have to watch the height of our tree, its ok at the moment but may need topping in future years, but at present would not shade the roof. their install would cost £12-15k for 4 kw, the roof is perfectly suitable and i am now awaiting contact from a private investor who is looking to fund the installs on a similar basis, ie free install and free electricity to home owner in return for the company getting the feed in tarrif, or we can fund it ourselves.
