      2. If we are unable to accept your order, we will inform you of this and will not charge you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.
   4. Our Products
      1. The images of the products and product packaging on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.
   5. Your Rights To Make Changes
      1. If you wish to make a change to the product you have ordered please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the product, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change. If we cannot make the change or the consequences of making the change are unacceptable to you, you may want to end the contract (see clause 8- Your rights to end the contract).
   6. Our Rights To Make Changes
      1. We may change the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements and to implement minor technical adjustments and improvements. These changes will not affect your use of the product.
      2. In addition, we may make changes to these terms or the product, but if we do so we will notify you and you may then contact us to end the contract before the changes take effect and receive a refund for any products paid for but not received.
   7. Providing The Products
      1. The costs of delivery will be as set out in our quote to you.
      2. During the order process we will let you know when we will provide the products to you.
         1. If the products are goods we will deliver them to you as soon as reasonably possible. We will contact you with an estimated delivery date.
         2. If the products are one-off services we will begin the services on the date agreed with you during the order process.
         3. If the products are ongoing services or a subscription to receive goods or digital content, we will supply the services, goods or digital content to you until either the services are completed or the subscription expires (if applicable) or you end the contract as described in clause 8 or we end the contract by written notice to you as described in clause 10.
         4. If the product is a one-off purchase of digital content we will make the digital content available for you to download as soon as we accept your order.
      3. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.
      4. If you have asked to collect the products from our premises, you can collect them at a time agreed with us in advance.
      5. If no one is available at your address to take delivery and the products cannot be posted through your letterbox, we will leave you a note informing you of how to rearrange delivery.
      6. If you do not collect the products from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange delivery or collection we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.
      7. If you do not allow us access to your property to perform the services as arranged (and you do not have a good reason for this) we may charge you additional costs incurred by us as a result. If, despite our reasonable efforts, we are unable to contact you or re-arrange access to your property we may end the contract and clause 10.2 will apply.
      8. You have legal rights if we deliver any goods late. If we miss the delivery deadline for any goods then you may treat the contract as at an end straight away if any of the following apply:
         1. We have refused to deliver the goods;
         2. Delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or
         3. You told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.
      9. If you do not wish to treat the contract as at an end straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 7.8, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can treat the contract as at an end if we do not meet the new deadline.
      10. If you do choose to treat the contract as at an end for late delivery under clause 7.8 or clause 7.9, you can cancel your order for any of the goods or reject goods that have been delivered. If you wish, you can reject or cancel the order for some of those goods (not all of them), unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. After that we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled goods and their delivery. If the goods have been delivered to you, you must either return them in person to where you bought them, post them back to us or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please call or email us to arrange collection.
      11. A product which is goods will be your responsibility from the time we deliver the product to the address you gave us or you collect it from us.
      12. You own a product which is goods once we have received payment in full.
      13. We may need certain information from you so that we can supply the products to you. If so, we will contact you to ask for this information. If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 10.2 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for supplying the products late or not supplying any part of them if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.
      14. We may have to suspend the supply of a product to:
          1. Deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;
          2. Update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
          3. Make changes to the product as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 6).
      15. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. If we have to suspend the product for longer than 3 months you may contact us to end the contract for a product and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the product in respect of the period after you end the contract.
      16. If you do not pay us for the products when you are supposed to (see clause 12.4) and you still do not make payment within 7 days of us reminding you that payment is due, we may suspend supply of the products until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. As well as suspending the products we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 12.5).
   8. Your Rights To End The Contract
      1. Your rights when you end the contract will depend on what you have bought, whether there is anything wrong with it, how we are performing and when you decide to end the contract:
         1. If what you have bought is faulty or misdescribed you may have a legal right to end the contract (or to get the product repaired or replaced or a service re-performed or to get some or all of your money back), see clause 11;
         2. If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see clause 8.2;
         3. If you have just changed your mind about the product, see clause 8.3. You may be able to get a refund if you are within the cooling-off period, but this may be subject to deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any goods;
         4. In all other cases (if we are not at fault and there is no right to change your mind), see clause 8.6.
      2. If you are ending a contract for a reason set out at (a) to (e) below the contract will end immediately and we will refund you in full for any products which have not been provided. The reasons are:
         1. We have told you about an upcoming change to the product or these terms which you do not agree to (see clause 6.2);
         2. We have told you about an error in the price or description of the product you have ordered and you do not wish to proceed;
         3. There is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;
         4. We have suspended supply of the products for technical reasons, or notify you we are going to suspend them for technical reasons, in each case for a period of more than 3 months; or
         5. You have a legal right to end the contract because of something we have done wrong.
      3. For most products bought you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days and receive a refund. These rights, under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, are explained in more detail in these terms.
      4. You do not have a right to change your mind in respect of:
         1. Item made to your specifications or which are clearly personalised; this includes custom colours which do not part of the standard colour range.
         2. Services, once these have been completed, even if the cancellation period is still running;
      5. How long you have to change your mind depends on what you have ordered and how it is delivered.
         1. If you have bought services, you have 14 days after the day we contact you to confirm we accept your order. However, once we have completed the services you cannot change your mind, even if the period is still running. If you cancel after we have started the services, you must pay us for the services provided up until the time you tell us that you have changed your mind.
         2. If you have bought goods, you have 14 days after the day you (or someone you nominate) receives the goods, unless:
            1. Your goods are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you receive the last delivery to change your mind about the goods.
            2. Your goods are for regular delivery over a set period, you have until 14 days after the day you receive the first delivery of the goods.
      6. Even if we are not at fault and you do not have a right to change your mind (see clause 8.1), you can still end the contract before it is completed, but you may have to pay us compensation. A contract for goods is completed when the product is delivered and paid for. A contract for services is completed when we have finished providing the services and you have paid for them. If you want to end a contract before it is completed where we are not at fault and you have not changed your mind, just contact us to let us know. The contract will end immediately and we will refund any sums paid by you for products not provided but we may deduct from that refund (or, if you have not made an advance payment, charge you) reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your ending the contract.
   9. How To End The Contract With Us (Including If You Have Changed Your Mind)
      1. To end the contract with us, please let us know by doing one of the following:
         1. Phone or email. Call customer services or email us. Please provide your name, home address, details of the order and, where available, your phone number and email address.
         2. By post. Simply write to us at that our address, including details of what you bought, when you ordered or received it and your name and address.
      2. If you end the contract for any reason after products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, you must return them to us. You must either return the goods in person to where you bought them, post them back to us at our registered address or (if they are not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. Please call us or email us to arrange collection. If you are exercising your right to change your mind you must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us you wish to end the contract.
      3. We will pay the costs of return:
         1. If the products are faulty or misdescribed;
         2. If you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the product or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so as a result of something we have done wrong; or
         3. If you are exercising your right to change your mind within the cooling off period. In all other circumstances, you must pay the costs of return.
      4. If you are responsible for the costs of return and we are collecting the product from you, we will charge you the direct cost to us of collection.
      5. We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.
      6. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:
         1. We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods, if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the goods and later discover you have handled them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
         2. The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
      7. We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind then:
         1. If the products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see clause 9.2.
         2. In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind.
   10. Our Rights To End The Contract
       1. We may end the contract for a product at any time by writing to you if:
          1. You do not make any payment to us when it is due and you still do not make payment within 7 days of us reminding you that payment is due;
          2. You do not, within a reasonable time of us asking for it, provide us with information that is necessary for us to provide the products;
          3. You do not, within a reasonable time, allow us to deliver the products to you or collect them from us; or
          4. You do not, within a reasonable time, allow us access to your premises to supply the services.
       2. If we end the contract in the situations set out in clause 10.1 we will refund any money you have paid in advance for products we have not provided but we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of your breaking the contract.
       3. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the product. We will let you know at least 14 days in advance of our stopping the supply of the product and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for products which will not be provided.
   11. If There Is A Problem With The Product
       1. If you have any questions or complaints about the product, please contact us. You can telephone, email or write to us.
       2. If you wish to exercise your legal rights to reject products you must either return it in person to where you bought it, post it back to us or (if it’s not suitable for posting) allow us to collect them from you. We will pay the costs of postage or collection. Please call us or email us at to arrange collection.
   12. Price And Payment
       1. The price of the product (which includes VAT) will be the price set out in the Quote or our acceptance of it. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the product advised to you is correct. However please see clause 12.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the product you order.
       2. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the product in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
       3. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the product’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the product’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of any goods provided to you.
       4. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 3% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank Plc from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
       5. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know.
   13. Our Responsibility For Loss Or Damage Suffered By You
       1. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill.
       2. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors; for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; for breach of your legal rights in relation to the products and for defective products under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
       3. If we are providing services in your property, we will make good any damage to your property caused by us while doing so. However, we are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to your property that we discover while providing the services.
       4. We only supply the products for domestic and private use. If you use the products for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
   14. How We May Use Your Personal Information
       1. We will only use your personal information as set out in our privacy policy:
       2. We will only give your personal information to third parties where the law either requires or allows us to do so.
   15. Other Important Terms
       1. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation.
       2. This contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms.
       3. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
       4. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
       5. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

1. 1. Appendix One – Important Notes Related To Product Supply And Warranties
      1. Products will be supplied as detailed in the quote. Where the products have not been specified by Sunflow Ltd it is your responsibility to ensure the products specified will meet with your requirements.
      2. All products ordered in a custom colour are made to your specification in accordance with clause 8.4 in the terms above.
      3. Some products supplied may not work with time of use tariffs such as Economy 7 or Economy 10. It is your responsibility to decide if you wish to change off of your Electricity tariff and we recommend to allow at least 2 weeks for the change to be carried out if you do so.
      4. Warranties for products are provided by the original manufacturer of the products and in accordance with their terms and conditions.
      5. Where we have manufactured the products your warranty will be directly with us and you may contact us by telephone, email or in writing if you wish to make a claim under your warranty.
      6. Where we have supplied products manufactured by others, your warranty will be with the manufacturer. You may need to register your warranty according to their terms and conditions.

      Appendix Two – Important Notes Related To Electrical Installation, Night Storage Heater Decommissioning And Related Services

      1. We will need good access to all areas of your home. This will include the rooms in which heaters are being sited and may also include loft spaces, garages and other area where electrical equipment and cabling is sited. If good access is not available it may affect our ability to complete the job on time and will likely result in additional charges for extra time at our standard day rate. We will notify you of this as soon as we identify a problem.
      2. All new wiring will be surface mounted only. We do not do any re-decorating.
      3. Unless otherwise agreed in the quote, we do not replace existing consumer units.
      4. We do not offer any warranty or guarantee in respect of existing electrical equipment, cabling or connections which we have used in the connection of the heaters.
      5. We do not make any solar panel connections.
      6. There may be times that the existing electrical installations may require us to carry out works that vary from the quote to comply with the current wiring regulations. Our fitting team will discuss this on the day and advise on the best way to move forward with the installation. If extra works are necessary this will likely result in additional charges for extra time at our standard day rate and materials.
      7. There may be times where you are having work done by others that it is necessary for them to complete in order for us to provide our services. In these cases it is your responsibility to ensure that the works are complete. If we are unable to carry out works on the agreed day as other works have not been completed this will likely result in additional charges at our standard day rate. We will notify you of this as soon as we identify a problem.
      8. Due to product and booking lead times, if you cancel an agreed appointment to complete the works with less than 3 weeks’ notice this will likely result in additional charges for lost days at our standard day rate.
      9. Unfortunately there may be times when we have to cancel an appointment at short notice due to circumstances outside of our control such as staff illness or emergency. Unless otherwise agreed you will not be entitled to compensation, but we will endeavour to re-book your appointment as soon as possible.
      10. Night storage heaters that we are removing must be turned off at least 48 hours prior to our arrival. Failure to do this will likely mean that they are too hot to handle and we will need to postpone and revisit. This will incur additional charges for extra days at our standard day rate.
      11. We cannot remove any materials / items that contain asbestos. Should asbestos be identified works will stop until you have sourced an authorised company to remove safely.
      12. Any electrical products that we use on the installation such as sockets, FCUs, circuit breakers, splitter boxes are subject to manufacturer’s warranty only. See appendix one.

       

      
       

      Appendix Three – Important Notes Related To Plumbing Works, Sunamp Installation, Cylinder Installation And Decommissioning Of Water Based Heating Systems

      1. It may be necessary for us to undertake a further plumbing survey on site or remotely. We reserve the right to discuss potential changes to the plumbing quote if something is found that we didn’t spot.
      2. We will need good access to all areas of your home. This will include the rooms in which equipment is being installed or removed and may also include loft spaces, garages and other area where plumbing, pipework, electrical equipment and cabling is sited. If good access is not available it may affect our ability to complete the job on time and will likely result in additional charges for extra time at our standard day rate. We will notify you of this as soon as we identify a problem.
      3. If we need access to cupboards or other tight areas where tanks are located, then it is your responsibility to empty and remove any shelving or other hindrances. If good access is not available it may affect our ability to complete the job on time and will likely result in additional charges for extra time at our standard day rate. If at your agreement we remove shelves or other hindrances then we will not re-install these. We will notify you of this as soon as we identify a problem.
      4. We do not remove oil or LPG tanks. This is very specialist and you will need to arrange for controlled disposal through an alternative company.
      5. We do not remove header tanks. These are typically difficult to get out. We will drain down and leave empty.
      6. We do not remove back boilers. These will be capped off and left in situ.
      7. We do not remove Parkray boilers.
      8. We cannot remove any materials / items that contain asbestos. Should asbestos be identified works will stop until you have sourced an authorised company to remove safely.
      9. It may be necessary to gain access to pipes which results in some superficial damage to plaster or decoration. We do not carry out any re-decorating works in this circumstance.
      10. When upgrading a domestic hot water system from low pressure to high pressure, leaks can occur in existing pipework which was not configured or set up for high pressure. Sunflow is not responsible for leaks in existing pipework.
      11. There may be times that the existing plumbing may require us to carry out works that vary from the quote to comply with the current building regulations. Our team will discuss this on the day and advise on the best way to move forward with the installation. If extra works are necessary this will likely result in additional charges for extra time at our standard day rate and materials.
      12. There may be times where you are having work done by others that it is necessary for them to complete in order for us to provide our services. In these cases it is your responsibility to ensure that the works are complete. If we are unable to carry out works on the agreed day as other works have not been completed this will likely result in additional charges at our standard day rate. We will notify you of this as soon as we identify a problem.
      13. Due to product and booking lead times, if you cancel an agreed appointment to complete the works with less than 3 weeks’ notice this will likely result in additional charges for lost days at our standard day rate.
      14. Unfortunately there may be times when we have to cancel an appointment at short notice due to circumstances outside of our control such as staff illness or emergency. Unless otherwise agreed you will not be entitled to compensation, but we will endeavour to re-book your appointment as soon as possible.
