Installation usually takes no more than an hour, with the power or gas being turned off for only approximately 30 minutes. Standard installations are between 08:00-18:00. Out of hours installations can be made with prior arrangement, but an additional charge may apply. Installations are free of charge for all our customers.

Please note that if you cancel your installation less than 5 working days before your appointment you may incur a charge of £150. This charge covers the cost of the engineer's visit and administrative fees.
