Prepare Your Home for Air Source Heat Pumps and Solar Panels with Fern Renewables

At Fern Renewables, we specialize in helping Lake District homeowners prepare their properties for the seamless installation of air source heat pumps (ASHPs) and solar panels. Proper preparatory work is essential to ensure these systems operate efficiently, delivering maximum comfort and energy savings.

For ASHP installations, our team assesses your property’s insulation to ensure it retains heat effectively. If upgrades are needed, such as improved wall or loft insulation, we’ll guide you through the process. 

We also construct and convert suitable buildings, outbuildings, cellars, and garages making them ready for your new air source heat pump equipment and associated plant.

We will evaluate your current heating system, recommending radiator upgrades or underfloor heating if required. The outdoor unit placement is carefully planned for optimal airflow, minimal noise, and easy maintenance. We handle the groundwork, from creating a sturdy base to ensuring proper drainage and electrical connections.

For solar panels, we prepare your roof or property for the system’s weight and layout. This includes checking roof orientation, structural integrity, and potential shading issues. If adjustments are required, such as reinforcing your roof or clearing obstructions, we’ll ensure your property is ready to harness solar energy efficiently. Ground-mounted systems are also available, with meticulous site preparation to ensure stability and accessibility.

At Fern Renewables, we navigate local planning regulations and tailor our services to the Lake District’s unique environment, preserving the region’s character while embracing renewable energy. Trust our expert team to manage every detail, ensuring a smooth transition to sustainable heating and energy. Contact Fern Renewables today to begin your journey toward a greener, more efficient home.
