Have your PV system installed or repaired

The cost of installing a PV system typically ranges from €4,500 to €8,000, depending on the scope of the job and the type of system. Repairs, of course, can be cheaper depending on the problem. At Zoofy, you don’t pay call-out fees, and the rates are based on the average prices charged by professional installers. This means you always know upfront what to expect.

Installing a PV system generally takes 4 to 8 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the system. Repairs are often completed within 1 to 3 hours, depending on the nature of the problem. These estimates are based on the experience of our professionals with similar jobs. Below are some factors that influence planning and duration:

1. Planning and preparation:
   • Scheduling: Installation usually takes place on a pre-agreed day with suitable weather (no rain or strong wind).
   • Inspection: Sometimes an inspection is required to assess the roof and fuse box, which can be done days or weeks prior to the installation.
2. Installation day:
   • Standard installations: For an average household with 8 to 12 solar panels, installation is usually completed within 4 to 8 hours.
   • Larger systems: Larger or more complex installations (e.g., systems with battery storage or multiple roof surfaces) may take a full workday or be spread over several days.
3. Completion and testing:

   After physically installing the solar panels, inverter, and wiring, the system is tested. This process takes approximately 1 to 2 hours. The system is then activated, and energy generation starts immediately.

4. Grid connection and registration:

   Once installed, the system often needs to be registered with the grid operator to enable energy feedback. This process can take a few days, depending on the procedure.

In summary, the solar panels are installed on the agreed day and are typically ready for use within a single workday. Make sure to coordinate with the installer in advance to discuss any questions or specific requirements.

When installing a PV system, the professional ensures the following steps are taken:

• Preparation: Inspecting the roof, the electrical system, and ensuring the necessary materials are available.
• Installation: Mounting the solar panels on the roof and connecting them to the inverter.
• Electrical connection: Integrating the system with the electrical panel and, if necessary, installing a smart meter.
• Testing and commissioning: Running tests to ensure the system functions correctly.

For repairs, a thorough inspection is conducted to identify the cause of the problem. The professional then provides a solution, such as replacing faulty panels, repairing wiring, or fixing the inverter.
