Looks good Nowty, can I ask the panel price? Mind and update the list.nowty wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2024 3:45 pm Damn those cheap panels at City Plumbing with free delivery, I don't want any more honest.
But they could replace 4 on my front porch sitting on prime SSW facing real estate. Then those existing 4 could replace the non matching silver frame ones on my decking area which were originally on the front porch to start off with.
These are the last ones, honest.
Front porch (V1) 1kWp
Front porch (V2) 1.26kWp
Front porch (V3) 1.72kWp

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
They were £75 each with the VAT but the free delivery is sweet. I think they manage to do this because they come from a local depot, so a relatively short distance.

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
I don't actually know how they do it. My single panel was strapped to a long pallet. Very much.on.its own and the guys at the depot behaved as if it was the first they'd seen? I'm surmising it's a loss leader. I don't know any other mobs that are doing it at this price point?

I don't know either now, they were collected from Warrington yesterday and arrived here on the south coast 9am this morning, next day delivery from a national pallet delivery company.Joeboy wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2024 10:21 pmI don't actually know how they do it.

We are due a downstairs bathroom rip out and refit as walk in shower. I quite liked city plumbing wee showroom so will give them the business. Would never have known about them but for the solar connection.

Re: Nowty Towers Vs UK Grid Storage
I was about to go out to get some 18mm thick plywood as a working board on the car port roof as my previous crawling boards were rotting through. Then I realised the pallet the panels came on was 18mm plywood with steel reinforcing strips, just what I needed.
Last time I replaced the panels I used a mini tower at the front of the house which was hard work, but I reckon its going to be an easier job working from my car port.
