Questions about solar roller shutters in Downpatrick
Do solar shutters work in winter?
Yes. The panel charges in daylight, not just sunshine, and a full battery runs the shutter for many cycles. Very shaded spots are assessed at survey.
How long does the battery last?
Batteries are a replaceable part and typically last several years in normal use. Replacement does not mean replacing the shutter.
Is the survey free in Downpatrick?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Downpatrick are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Downpatrick?
External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
