We installed 16 solar panels and 2 batteries with Solarstream. Our bills are close to 50% lower and delighted we took the plunge. We long to see the sun everyday and solar power has only enhanced our lives. Our only regret is not doing so long before now, The Solarstream Advisor , Paul, that guided us through the process was fantastic.

Angie, the Solar Advisor that dealt with us was a great asset to the Solarsteam Team, we are delighted with the efficiency of the system and constant hot water.

Gerry R, Balbriggan

The quality of the service and presentation was exceptional, the service and communication during installation was excellent and all staff were courteous and efficient. We had priced around with other Dublin installers before eventually going with Solarstream and found that they were the most competitive and transparent. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
