Solar

When investing in solar panels for your Christchurch home, it’s essential to evaluate several factors, including size, type, efficiency, wattage, cost and warranty. At Primera Solar, we simplify the decision-making process by providing all the insights you need.

Solar Panel Size

Solar panels come in various sizes, and selecting the right one depends on your roof space and energy needs:

• 108-cell panels: Approx. 68” x 45” and 45 lbs. Ideal for residential installations in sunny locations.
• 132-cell panels: Larger at 74” x 41” and 48.5 lbs., perfect for maximising energy output in limited spaces.

Types of Solar Panels

1. Monocrystalline vs. Polycrystalline

   • At Primera Solar, we exclusively offer monocrystalline panels, as they provide higher efficiency and better performance in low-light conditions.

2. Half-Cut Solar Cells

   • A breakthrough in solar technology, half-cut cells reduce energy loss and improve efficiency, particularly in shaded conditions.

Solar Panel Efficiency

Efficiency determines how effectively solar panels convert sunlight into electricity. Most panels have efficiency rates between 15% and 20%. Our products reach 18% to 20%, making them ideal for those with limited roof space.

Solar Panel Wattage

Panel wattage ranges from 250W to over 420W. At Primera Solar, we offer high-performance panels between 335W and 405W, ensuring your household’s energy needs are met.

Cost

Our panels range from 300-400gbp each, with premium options up to 600gbp. The total cost depends on your energy requirements and the number of panels needed. Opt for a complete solar kit to save on additional components and enjoy full tech support from our team.

Warranty

We offer robust warranties to protect your investment:

• Product Warranty: Covers manufacturing defects for 10-12 years.
