Arrived on 2nd attempt to fit panels. Disappointed, as I took a day off to be here from them. They only contacted me on the day they were suppose to arrive. The electricians who arrived a few days later were on time, clean job, and friendly. Overall, the completed job was very neat and I am very happy with it. I would have given AEI 5 stars but for their failure to arrive as promised.
I'm afraid my expierence was not great. The electrican informed me during the installation that the element in my hot water tank was gone, this proved to be not true. The solar panels have yet to heat any water six months after the installation. Have had to pay a plumber to check the hot water tank and have asked AEI on two occassions for help to rectify, nothing as of yet. Paid them almost 9000 euro for a system that does not work and they have been no help. Sent me links to youtube videos. I am at a loss
Great company to deal with from start to finish. Workers arrived on time, were very quick, efficient and tidy. The whole process was seamless, AEI managed the SEAI grant. Would highly recommend
Delighted with my solar panel installation from AEI. A very professional team from start to finish - sales were clear and informative, and the installation team were efficient, tidy, and clearly knew what they were doing. Everything was well explained, timelines were met, and the whole process was smooth and hassle-free. I’d highly recommend AEI to anyone considering solar.
AEI arranged for the installation of solar panels on my house in October for the purpose of producing electricity for the Grid. The work was completed satisfactorily over two days and was up and running before they left. I'm very happy with the system and highly recommend AEI.
