FAQ

Direct answers for homeowners and answer engines.

What does SavingEnergy.com do?

Independent, Engineer-led guidance to help UK homeowners understand Solar, Batteries, Heat Pumps, Insulation and Boilers before speaking to installers — plus an optional £69 Engineer's Second Opinion on your quote.

Does SavingEnergy.com sell or install products?

No. It is a guidance service — not an installer, supplier, surveyor, finance adviser or quote-comparison company. We earn no commission from installers.

What is the Engineer's Second Opinion (£69)?

Send your Solar or Heat Pump quote and you receive a full Engineering sanity-check: specification, realistic savings, red flags and the questions to put to your installer. We never sell you a system.

How does SavingEnergy.com earn money?

From the optional £69 review service, and from honest, disclosed finder's fees when a reader chooses to use a trusted British company we recommend.

Independent, fixed-fee Engineering

  • A line-by-line check of the specification and sizing

£249 Pre-Quote Master Specification

Get ahead of the sales pitch with your own independent specification — so installers quote to your terms, not theirs.

How it works:

  • You send your EPC, a 12-month smart-meter export and a couple of photos (consumer unit, loft and roof)
  • You get back a vendor-agnostic system specification: the sizing, the limits and the do-not-accepts
  • You hand it to installers and say “quote against this” — no deviation

Both services are completely independent and fixed-fee. We never sell hardware and never take commission — you pay us, so we answer only to you.
