What our customers say about us.
I am extremely pleased with the installation of my solar battery this morning. UpVolt staff dealt with everything to make the process run smoothly. The job was carried out really well and I'm impressed with the tidy result. The two men installing the battery took time to show me it was working and they pointed out one or two things I may need to know. I have confidence in this company and I can turn to them if I have any questions now, or in the future.

Had an amazing experience buying a solar panel and battery system through Upvolt. Keith was incredibly patient with us and our " Just so I understand this correctly" phone calls. And Jemma and Sharron were extremely prompt with any correspondence from the office. Whole experience was flawless. Everything arrived when it was supposed to and the installation was straightforward. The only tiny issue was that the app wouldn't connect to the server. Easily fixed with one call. Great experience all round, highly recommended.

System was installed just over a year ago. Generated 8MW over the year from an East/West roof. No problems with operation but had a question re the generation meter and after sales service was good.

I was made aware of Upvolt through a comparison site that provides details of local suppliers. I’m very pleased with my experience with Upvolt and would recommend them, from Keith doing the initial assessment providing clear advice on process and potential returns on the installation. Sharon & Jemma in the office provided the documentation and gave me updates on timings etc. Then the installation guys who were courteous and professional during the installation. Overall I’m glad I chose Upvolt and would recommend them to others.

This is the second time we have used Upvolt Oxfordshire to provide us with a solar panel and battery system. We were so pleased back in 2022 when they installed a system in our old house that we did not hesitate to go to them again! They are so helpful and professional, explaining the ideal system to suit our needs and going through the complexities of solar energy in a way that we could easily understand. On the day of fitting we met with a professional and wonderful team of installers who worked hard to put it all together in a single day. I do not hesitate to recommend Upvolt Oxfordshire, they simply are the best.

My FIT solar meter was badly damaged ( it was installed 13years ago, by a different company). Upvolt came to my rescue and fitted a new meter for me. Responsive and fitted me in quickly around their other work load at short notice. Electrician was very helpful and courteous. Performed a thorough investigation of the issue and supplied new meter and isolator. Many thanks for coming to my rescue

Keith, Jemma and Garth from Upvolt Energy where very helpful in arranging at very short notice installation of an inverter to replace our faulty one. Our PV system is now operating well again. Thank you all!

I needed a new Solar Company to provide ongoing services to my existing system. The Upvolt team were very prompt and professional and able to replace my faulty Inverter quickly and without fuss.

Had an excellent experience with Upvolt Oxfordshire throughout the process of solar installation. Keith Willis came to do the home survey and went through the numbers and financial modelling in great detail and was also very responsive to further questions via email. Jemma and Sharon were very helpful answering additional queries about the process. Keith also responded very quickly when there was an issue with the scaffolding on the eve of installation day. Simon (roofer) and Garth (electrician) and their colleagues did a great job working in sweltering heat on the day. Even though they couldn't finish the job due to the heat and the roofers had to come back a week later, Keith kept me updated throughout, and I am delighted that I now have a fully functioning solar system and that I'm already seeing the savings on my electricity bills coming through.

What a team, professional from start to finish. Our PV installation was with Upvolt Oxfordshire and the whole process has gone like clockwork. Keith who did the survey was thorough and explained every step of the process and Sharon and Jemma the team in the office were both supportive and knowledgeable. The guys who did the installation were efficient and tidy workers even to clearing the rubbish away when done. a great job well done!

Upvolt Oxfordshire have been really easy to deal with. From first contact to installation it's been less than 3 weeks. I've had 9 panels, an inverter and a battery installed. I can monitor everything on my phone ( which is a bit addictive ) and it's already making a huge difference to my consumption from the grid. It'll be interesting to see have things change during the winter, and I'll probably change to a tariff that allows me to charge my battery off-peak for cheap. The installation itself took a day ( I live in a new-build so perhaps more straightforward ) and Upvolt came round the next day to help with with a problem with the monitoring. Since then there have been no problems. The communication has been helpful and clear and there have been no surprises. I would definitely recommend Upvolt.

I went to Upvolt Oxfordshire Ltd when the installer of my panels and inverter both went bust and I wanted a reputable and local firm to take on servicing my pv system when the inverter failed. Upvolt were incredibly helpful in taking over my system and coming and installing a new Solar Edge inverter. I really felt the electrician knew what he was doing and talking about and was worth paying maybe a little more for a reputable firm to do the work rather than the many cold-callers who keep ringing me up wanting to 'service my system'. The whole system is back up and running very well, and I wholeheartedly recommend this firm who know what they are doing!

Great people to deal with. The quote was competitive and the installation went exactly as promised. The scaffolders arrived the day before installation day and got everything prepared. On installation day the crew arrived on time and got straight to work. They finished mid afternoon and left everything tidy. Next day a van arrived to collect all the used packaging and rubbish and a couple of days later the scaffolding was taken down and everything left in good order.

How it works.
Follow the questionnaire and after just a few steps we will be able to design your heat pump system.
consultation
Our heating experts design a custom system tailored to your unique needs and provide clear answers to all your questions.
installation
Your new heat pump will be installed at your convenience, on site by our engineering team located in your region.
Once installed, your heat pump will begin delivering efficient, low-carbon heating to your home.
Helpful to know.
Most homes are well-suited for heat pumps, but a few factors will affect performance and efficiency. Good insulation, modern radiators or underfloor heating, and adequate outdoor space for the heat pump unit all improve suitability. During our consultation, we assess your property’s energy efficiency, room layout, and heating needs to design a tailored system. Even older homes can benefit from heat pumps with some upgrades, such as improved loft insulation or pipework adjustments.
Installation costs typically range from £7,000 to £15,000, depending on the type (air or ground source), the size of your home, and any system upgrades needed, like new radiators or a hot water cylinder. While the upfront cost may seem high, it can be reduced through government schemes like the Boiler Upgrade Scheme (currently offering up to £7,500). Over time, energy savings and low maintenance costs help offset the initial investment, making heat pumps a smart long-term choice for many households.
Yes, especially if you're replacing oil, LPG, or electric heating. Heat pumps use electricity to move heat rather than generate it, achieving efficiency levels of 300% or more. This means for every unit of electricity used, you get three or more units of heat. Combined with a well-insulated home and smart controls, you can see significant reductions in heating bills. Pairing with solar panels or off-peak tariffs further boosts savings. We provide personalised estimates during your quote so you can see the financial impact upfront.
A standard air-source heat pump installation usually takes 2–4 days, while ground-source systems may take a week or more due to the groundwork involved. Our team manages everything: removal of old systems (if needed), electrical upgrades, cylinder replacement, and setup of smart controls. We aim for minimal disruption and keep you informed at every stage. After installation, we test the system thoroughly and walk you through how to use it effectively, so you're comfortable and confident with your new setup.
Yes. Today’s heat pumps are built to perform efficiently even in low outdoor temperatures, often as low as -15°C. Thanks to advanced compressor technology and refrigerants, they maintain reliable heating output in typical UK winter conditions. While they may operate slightly less efficiently in freezing weather, their overall performance still far exceeds traditional electric heating. Proper system sizing and installation are key to ensuring your home stays warm and comfortable throughout the year, regardless of weather.
For most homes in England and Wales, installing an air-source heat pump falls under permitted development rights, meaning you don’t need planning permission, provided certain conditions are met (e.g., placement of the unit, noise levels, and property type). However, listed buildings or homes in conservation areas may require permission. We handle these details for you, conducting checks and managing any necessary applications to ensure your installation is compliant with local regulations.
Heat pumps are known for their low maintenance needs compared to traditional boilers. An annual service is recommended to check refrigerant levels, clean filters, inspect components, and update system software. This keeps the system running efficiently, protects your warranty, and extends its lifespan, which can exceed 15 years with proper care. Our team offers ongoing service plans and remote performance monitoring, so we can spot any issues early and keep everything operating smoothly without the guesswork.
Yes, getting both solar panels and a heat pump for a residential home is a smart and efficient choice. Solar panels are highly effective at generating electricity from sunlight, which directly reduces your electricity bill—especially during the day when energy use is high. Heat pumps, on the other hand, are excellent at efficiently heating water and providing space heating, significantly lowering your gas bill if you're switching from a gas boiler or water heater. Together, these systems complement each other: the solar panels generate clean electricity, which can then power the heat pump. This synergy maximises your home's energy efficiency, reduces reliance on fossil fuels, and cuts both gas and electricity costs. Overall, it's a sustainable and cost-effective upgrade for most homes.
