Questions about solar roller shutters in Ashford (Kent)
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.
Do I need permission for solar roller shutters in Ashford (Kent)?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Ashford (Kent)?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Ashford (Kent) are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
