Ohme home charger installation in Swansea
Ohme Home Pro & ePod installation in Swansea. Smart tariff ready (Octopus Intelligent Go), fixed price, full BS 7671 certification.
You can spend a lot on brand-specific or very little. Which one is right depends on measurements, not on the quote. We fit Ohme units across Swansea on a fixed-price single-day visit, and we know the quirks: SIM signal, app pairing and the ePod tether-length trade-off in coastal terraces in Mumbles and Sketty, older miners' housing in Morriston, and post-war semis around Gorseinon. Every property we attend in and around Swansea gets the same order of operations, and it starts with establishing home Pro vs ePod. Anyone testing properly will reach the same conclusion. Where previous work has no certification behind it, we test it rather than take it on trust. It rarely changes the price, but it does change the plan. Brand-specific sits somewhere between routine and urgent depending on what the property is doing right now.

What's different about Swansea
The ePod (untethered) is neater on terraces around SA1–SA7; the Home Pro (tethered) is faster day-to-day on driveways with a single car. Checked at first fix and again at test.
Ohme units use a built-in SIM rather than your home Wi-Fi, so signal at the proposed install point matters — we check it on the survey before quoting in Swansea. It is recorded on the paperwork.
Full BS 7671 cert + DNO notification tends to appear alongside older accessories rather than alone.
Ohme units use a built-in SIM rather than your rarely travels alone on an installation of that vintage.

Common questions
Home Pro or ePod?
Home Pro = tethered cable, faster daily. ePod = untethered, neater, slightly more setup.
What if I disagree with a finding?
You are welcome to get a second opinion. The readings are on the certificate so anyone can repeat them.
What paperwork do I get?
The certification appropriate to the work, listing the circuits tested and the readings recorded, not a receipt with a tick on it.
Can the work be staged?
Often, yes. Where the findings allow it we prioritise what affects safety and leave the rest to be planned.
Do you cover Swansea for brand-specific?
Yes — Swansea and the surrounding SA1–SA7 postcodes are part of our regular working area, including Neath and Llanelli, and Swansea Council notification is handled by us where the work requires it. It affects sequence more than cost.
Can you supply the report electronically?
Yes, as a PDF the same or next working day, with the Swansea address and circuit schedule on it.
