Pros & cons

Pros

  • Good value based on current market: At £444, it’s one of the cheapest two-panel kits available today, while still offering a strong overall specification.
  • High-efficiency panels: The supplied DMEGC panels deliver an excellent 23.3% module efficiency.
  • Flexible mounting options: The supplied mount suits ground, wall, balcony or flat roof installation and adjusts from 15° to 45°, helping you optimise the panel angle to capture more sunlight and improve generation.

Cons

  • Panels are not independently managed: With a single MPPT, the microinverter has to manage both panels together, so one panel receiving less sunlight can hold back the performance of the pair. This makes the kit better suited to setups where both panels can face the same direction.
  • Higher-capacity kit costs only slightly more: The DMEGC 1030W version adds 100W of panel capacity for just £24 extra, making it hard to justify this kit unless space or panel size is a constraint.
  • Stock availability and lead times: City Plumbing's competitive pricing means kits can sell out quickly, while pre-orders can involve lengthy waits for delivery.

Ballast

If you’re installing the kit freestanding, you’ll need ballast to weigh down the mounting frame and help prevent movement or uplift. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the required ballast weight and positioning.

Cable protection

If the AC cable runs through an exposed area, split conduit can provide additional protection. Because the plugs and connectors are moulded onto the cable, split conduit can be fitted around it without needing to remove them.
