Start with something useful.
You don't need to commit to a whole-home project. Most useful automation starts by solving one real problem, proving its value, and growing from there.
Work out what's possible
A local visit to understand your existing heating, energy and smart-home equipment, identify worthwhile integrations and recommend sensible next steps.
Solve one useful problem
A contained automation using existing equipment where practical, lighting, blinds, monitoring, routines or another clearly defined job.
Compare before you buy
Independent modelling of panel layouts, battery sizes and tariffs, with assumptions and scenario comparisons made clear.
Make more of the system you already bought
Integration and optimisation of compatible solar, battery and smart-tariff systems, including monitoring and commissioning.
Make the house work together
Several existing systems coordinated through one locally managed automation platform. Larger whole-home projects are quoted individually.
Sometimes, and we should be able to show you why.
For small-to-medium solar and battery systems, PredBat reports typical additional savings of about £267 per year, with results varying by tariff, consumption, solar generation and system size. Its comparison is against a battery operating in ordinary self-use mode, not against having no battery at all.
~£267/year
Typical annual saving reported by PredBat for small-to-medium systems.
Up to 29%
Reported bill reduction in its user data. This is not a guarantee for an individual home.
Measure it
Where the system allows it, we'd rather monitor actual performance than make heroic savings claims.
Figures are third-party PredBat data, not a Guildford Home Automation savings guarantee. Actual results depend heavily on the home, hardware and tariff.
