Frequently asked questions
Can solar shutters be put on a timer?
Yes, with a compatible wireless timer or smart hub.
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.
Is the survey free in Coulsdon?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Coulsdon are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Coulsdon?
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.
