Highly Recommended – Fantastic Experience with CRG Direct After having my hybrid heat pump & solar panels installed by CRG Direct, I can honestly say the whole experience exceeded my expectations. From the very first enquiry to the completed installation, the team was skillful, professional, reliable, and incredibly helpful. If you’re thinking about installing heat pump & solar panels, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend CRG Direct. Their customer service, attention to detail, and professionalism were outstanding from start to finish. Thank you to everyone at CRG Direct for such a fantastic job!
Great communication from the start of our experience to the end. Well co-ordinated by the office staff, electricians, loft insulator and the scaffolding team. Very professional. Steve and Alan were absolutely amazing, they took the care to ensure the installation was to an exceptional standard, taking the time to explain the app and how it works. We would highly recommend.
I called CRG Direct as I was having a problem with my Givenergy inverter. The following day Sharni called to sort out my problem who incidentally was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I am very pleased I called this company. As and when I have my next problem I will be calling them.
CRG have just installed both a heat pump and solar panels. It was a 3day event with many workers involved. we have to say how pleased we were with the professional way the work was carried out. The work force were both polite and very informative. Before they left we were given a comprehensive overview of the instructions on how to use the equipment. The experience was 5 Starr and highly recommend anyone looking at upgrading there home energy appliances
Brilliant company. They knocked the door one day offering free solar panels, inverter, hybrid heat pump and boiler! Which seemed too good to be true, but it wasn’t! The office staff were very professional and kept us in the loop every step of the way. They turned up for every appointment / survey exactly when they said they would. And had the whole install completed in just 2 days. Even the scaffolding was well organised. It wet up the day before the install, and came down the day after it was completed. Would 100% recommend 😊
Just had CRG carry out energy improvements on our home under the Warmer Home Scheme. Everything was carried out on schedule and even the one thing which wasn’t it was arranged over the weekend so we didn’t have to wait until the Monday. The guys doing the work were very efficient and friendly. Anybody considering any solar or other energy improvements to their home please consider this company as you won’t regret it.
CRG were recommended by Emsworth Roofing to install integrated PV’s. From the first assessment by Tom Kirby, through to the installation and beyond, GRG were highly efficient, and were happy to fit in with the schedule of the roofers. All the CRG staff, from sales to administration to installation, were helpful and pleasant. On installation day GRG-Direct engineer Jim arrived first and fitted the roof panels. Then Adrian installed the 2x 5kWh batteries and inverter in the garage, while Damian carried out the required cabling and wiring. A substantial amount of work was carried out and the entire installation finished within a day, ready for the roofers to return and tile around the panels. Our heating and hot water are provided by a heat pump. The PV’s consist of 6 east facing panels and 6 west facing. The roof is low pitched at 20° so generates power - to varying degrees - pretty well from sunrise to sunset. Currently the batteries provide all our evening and overnight power. From mid April 2025 until now (12th July) the panels have provided virtually all our electricity with the exception of up to 5p some days, due to the kettle coinciding with another high power unit. In addition to running the house, and recharging the batteries, the panels export up to 3.8kW for several hours each day, meaning that we are make a profit which more than covers the standing charge. Obviously things will change during the winter with shorter days, more overcast skies and additional heating requirements. We will need to experiment regarding when to recharge the batteries, heat the water etc. We were having the roof recovered, so integrated panels were part of the process. However, as the panels sit on the roof battens, my feeling is that integrating panels, on an existing roof, would be a simple matter of lifting some tiles, installing the panels and replacing some of the tiles around the edge. I suspect CRG could arrange this simply and cheaply.
