Great company to work with. Kamil and his team are always doing a great and tidy job. We have had an ASHP installed a few years ago and solar PV a few years after, and we already contracted Solum to add more panels and a battery to our new extension. The very compatatice prices combined with good craftmanship is why we always come back. Thank you for all your help so far.
Solum GB have been excellent throughout. I had an existing solar installation and was looking to expand, especially as the previous installer had not impressed (either with the product or customer service). Solum GB were excellent throughout, their advice on my upgrade and integrating to the existing system was very clear and helpful. I’m very happy with the end product and the fitting was done on time to a very high standard. Lastly, the customer care has been great and has left me with a good understanding of the system and usage. Thank you to the team at Solum GB.
Solum carried out the initial installation a few years back. They have since carried out the necessary overhaul of antifreeze and maintenance on two occasions. The system works well, giving initial heat in winter and only needing a quick top-up for a bath, while in summer there is a full tank of hot water. On all occasions they have been on time and kept us informed about the works. We are very happy with their service.
Excellent company - installers and admin sttaff very helpful throughout - now enjoying the benefits of the installation
Annual Service on ASHP This is the 3rd time that the company have c0me to service my ASHP. Every time they have turned up when arranged, done exactly as they said they would and most importantly for me as a customer been very clear as to there cost before and fully explained what will be needed. I have the utmost faith in the engineers abilities to carry out the task and the communication from the office and the engineers is always first rate. Thank you and keep up the good work rodger
A very professional team with very high standards of workmanship. Would highly recommend them for Heat Pump installation.
Solum GB installed my Midea air source heat pump in October 2021 and have serviced it each year since then. It's been working pretty well throughout the year, although I had noticed some leakage of the glycol/water mix at the hot water tank in my loft and from a couple of joints going to the tank. Solum's agent identified that the screw caps on 2 the air release valves on the tank were loose so he tightened them. He also tightened the pipe joints, which had very small amounts of leakage. The agent also added some biocide to the radiator circuit, which is a new requirement from 2025.
ago Excellent company to deal with, first class installers who worked very hard and diligently and were very knowledgeable, explaining everything clearly after the installation. Very organised and tidy in their work. Very pleased with my installation.
I can't rate SOLUM GB highly enough. Their whole team from the boss, to their admin and engineers are all polite, professional and knowledgeable. They always turn up when they say they will and their communication is excellent. Thank you
I've been a very satisfied customer of Solum Gb since they installed my heat pump boiler and solar panels when my house was first built. They've been looking after the system for me ever since, and I couldn't be happier. Every person I've dealt with, from the office staff to the on-site technicians, has been polite and friendly. Their services are always efficient, and they provide honest advice on what's needed—a refreshing change from the extra selling I used to get with boiler services at my last home. They even helped me out when I failed to book a service one year, managing to fit me in right away. If you're looking for an install or ongoing service, I would happily suggest Solum Gb to anyone.
We had a heat pump installed by Solum three years ago and had them back to do solar pv plus a battery last year. We're very happy with both. Iain was extremely straightforward and honest to deal with and gave good advice. The workmanship by Kamil and the team has been equally good. The heat pump has been providing trouble free heating since then. The estimated solar power production that we were given would appear to be an under estimate and the combined effect of both the solar PV, ASHP and smart tariff has dramatically cut our energy bills. I would have no hesitation recommending Solum and would definitely use again. Thank you very much!
The service was carried out professionally. The engineer took the time to explain the process and answer any questions
SolumGB did an excellent job installing our new heat pump, water tank, radiators and pipework. They were professional, tidy and extremely knowledgeable. The work they have done is to a very high standard. We can't recommend Kamil and his team enough!
Extremely pleased with my ASHP installed by SOLUMGB in November 2022. Their excellent standards are maintained by an annual service.
Setting up - Solum GB was very clear about what the ASHP could do, how it would work and how they would fit it. They completed the job in the time stated, were very clean, efficient and friendly. This was August 2020. From the start we have had no problems with the installation. It does what they said it would do. Ongoing checking - this has been regular, on time and without problems. Their Head Office staff are on the ball.
A small expert and friendly team. Used for installing an ASHP, and as the service and price was good, also went on to use them for Solar Panels array installation. This kit is complex, and you will need ongoing support, and some training and advice. Solum have been very good at that - and with reasonable prices - I recommend!
ASHP Annual Service. The Solum GB technician turned up on time, talked through what would be done, confirming what was sent by email. Very through cleaning of ASHP unit and topping up of fluids. Very friendly and knowledgeable. I will be using them again.
Air Source Heat Pump Installation. A very professsional job well done. The installation was done when they said and to a high standard of cleanliness and workmanship. The installers were all polite, courteous and professional.
This small company is expert and experienced in their field and did a great job. They are polite and easy to deal with and responsive to technical queries. I found them to be reliable and trustworthy and everything they did was done in a timely manner. They always left the site clean and tidy. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
I'd give these guys six stars if I could! From Iain's advice when I first contacted them, ongoing help from Karolina and Luke in the office, through to installation by Kamil and his team, they've all been incredibly helpful, efficient, and professional throughout. And I'm absolutely delighted with the new heat pump and radiators, which have been fitted so beautifully and worked perfectly from day one. Most importantly, our house is now lovely and warm even when it's below zero outside, and this in a concrete 1950s house which many said wouldn't be suitable for a heat pump. Choosing a heat pump and Solum GB to fit it has definitely been one of the best decisions I've made. Thank you!
A really good reliable company, who took the stress out of my hestpump installation. This is newtech for me, but Kamil gave me confidence in how it would all work. He was neat and tidy, so unlike a number of other trades on our'build'. Karolina in the office did a great job with the arrangements and answering queries. Thank you
The air source heat pump and central heating system installed in our home has been in use for just under two weeks, and it’s been impressive so far. The team from Solum GB Ltd., completed the setup efficiently, tailoring the installation to fit the property perfectly, and kept me informed throughout, leaving the workspace tidy. The system’s performance has been smooth and efficient, and I’m confident it will continue to provide reliable heating. I’d like to thank the installation team and the main office team for their hard work and professionalism—it’s made a real difference to the comfort and warmth of our home.
The whole process of fitting the heat pump system the heat pump system was excellent. The whole team all arrived at in good time in the morning and left at the end of the day after a full days work. The workmanship was excellent. The whole process stress free for us.
We had a Heat Pump installed by Solum. Kamil and his men worked tirelessly all day and tidied before leaving each day. Their workmanship is first class In every way I have no hesitation in recommending them. Tha installation went very well and any questions asked were answered honestly. Handover was given both verbally and documented. We have had no problems whilst running.
Solum GB consistently provide a fast efficient service when it comes to after sales care. The whole Team are knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy.
Solum GB installed our Heat Pump. They were around our house for a number of days and were superb. Patient, polite, and quiet! The finished job was to a very high standard, they take a lot of care and pride in their work, and the technical walk-through for handover was very thorough. I highly recommend talking to Solum GB if you're considering getting a Heat Pump.
Excellent Service and Quality Products I recently had a great experience with Solum GB Their service and products were outstanding. The customer service team was friendly and helpful. They answered all my questions and provided detailed information about their products. Overall, I highly recommend Solum GB for their excellent service and high-quality products
My solar EV system, installed by Solum GB just over 2 months ago, was planned long before we moved into our new property. We were downsizing as there is only the two of us now and as we had a solar EV system installed at our previous house and wanted to do the same again knowing the benefits it brings. SolumGB worked with me throughout, even though it took 6 months to eventually move after placing the original order. I have nothing but praise for the professionalism and dedication of the team who worked on the planning and installation, they were friendly, polite and extremely helpful through all stages from placement of order through to final commissioning. And although we do not yet have an electric powered car planning for the future we decided to get a car charging system installed at the same time. Hot water is heated via an iBoost from any spare capacity not used by the rest of the house therefore resulting in less gas being used to provide hot water water. A 9.5kV battery provides non grid electricity when the panels on the roof are not generating. The system is working well and during these summer months providing more electricity than we actually use so we are outputting approximately 50% to the grid which once the smart meter gets installed we will be paid for. The amount being exported will decrease once the planned heat pump (not provided by SolumGB) is installed. The inclusion of a heat pump will almost make us self sufficient in importing anything from the grid. If you are thinking of installing a solar EV system I would definitely recommend you consider SolumGB.
Solum installed the whole package at my property. Solar Thermal and Air Source Heat Pump. Really could not fault them at anything. Impressed with their service from start to finish. I highly recommend this company .
If only all companies were like Solum GB! Excellent customer service from start to finish. I have had my solar hot water system filed by them twice over several years, each time the engineers were fantastic. I am an ex plumbing and heating engineer but don't have the means to fill my system myself but would only let a company I trust do this work, hence I choose Solum GB. Very knowable staff who are professional and all at a very, very fair price. Highly recommended.
Very impressed from start to finish with Solum GB. Kept informed throughout the process. Some issues were encountered during install and I was kept fully I formed as to what was happening and the resolution. Very pleased with the system installed
The team at Solum GB were fantastic when we had a problem with our AHP. Went out of there way to get it fixed as quickly as possible.
We found all the staff at Solum GB very friendly and helpful. All the trades that visited our home carried out their work in a good workmanlike manner and left no mess, they gave advice when asked and did their best to answer our questions. Thank you.
I'm very happy with this company. I bought two solar PV systems, with storage batteries, for a house and an adjoining flat/workshop. It took six months from order to installation, because of supply chain disruption, and there was a (modest, acceptable) price increase along the way. But communication was good throughout. The installation process was very efficient and well handled throughout in a couple of days. Even now (October) I reckon I am generating 75% of my electricity, with some further energy saving measures to come. And I export some to the grid as well. That is after charging my electric car for free. The battery storage extends my solar power well into the evening and usually beyond bedtime. Total payback should be within four years (less if there's a big price increase in April 2023), plus I've added to the value of my property. I love the online GivEnergy display, telling me exactly how much I am importing/exporting at any time and whether I am using the grid, solar power, or battery storage. For the first time I feel I am actually in control of my energy usage, and able to make sensible decisions about how to save money.
Excellent service from a competent and polite team. The solar installation went to plan with no surprise additional costs. They were very professional with good customer care. Throughout I felt I was in good hands. Highly recommended.
Very pleased with the whole service from Solum GB. We have quite a narrow slate roof that is prominent in the roads around so wanted something that looked good as well as being good. It looks superb, everyone we spoke to from sales to the office to the installation crew were helpful, and the tech is great too. Very satisfying to see the power we're generating on the app each day. Hope to use them for a heat pump one day when we get ourselves sorted.
I received a 5-star service from Solum GB, who fitted Solar Thermal for me. Staff were friendly and helpful and took their time to explain everything to me and kept me informed at every stage. The fitters were punctual and tidy and took Covid precautions and the team worked hard all day, to ensure that the fitting was done in a day and the solar panel is already performing well. Aftercare has already been arranged with a service schedule. I would thoroughly recommend this company. Paula Wakeham.
Promptly and efficiently quoted to repair my solar thermal system. Work undertaken efficiently and tidily at a realistic price. Well done!
We have just had solar thermal installed under the Green Home Grant scheme. From start to finish I have been very impressed with everyone I have dealt with at Solum GB. It was initially hard to find an installer willing to work under the scheme, but Solum were the only company I came across who were equally as excited for this incentive. I highly recommend Solum GB and will have no hesitation using them again in the future.
We would highly recommend Solum. From quotation to completion of work everyone on the team was professional, friendly and helpful. The work is of a high standard and was carried out superbly.
