Before founding Llani Solar Ltd, Chris Lord-Smith, our Director, gained 35 years experience in the building profession. He installed his first solar water heating system in the early 1990’s. He has extensive knowledge of solar water heating systems, having installed most of the panels available on the UK market over the years.  As a time-served tradesman, our installations are grounded in a thorough understand of construction, roofing and heating systems.  This experience provides the technical basis for Llani Solar's high quality installations.

Chris Lord-Smith is a long-standing member of the Association for Environment Conscious Building (www.aecb.co.uk), committed to reducing the impact of the built environment.  Our installers are fully trained and employ the highest standards of workmanship, and health and safety, to ensure our solar systems function as designed and give years of service.
