Process for setting up a Climkit site

Requesting a Quote

Once the requirements are defined, submit a request for a quote to info@climkit.io.

To avoid subsequent additional costs, it is important to identify all necessary elements beforehand according to the site and owner requirements, notably:

  • the management solutions to be implemented,
  • the number and type of electricity meters,
  • the planned internet connection method.

If in doubt regarding the configuration to retain or compatibility with an existing site, an upfront discussion with Climkit allows for validating the planned connection diagram for the site and avoiding later adjustments.

Climkit Quote Structure

The offer for a new Climkit site is divided by product category and type:

Categories
  • Gateway and connectivity
  • Electricity management

Placing an Order

It is possible to place an order directly from the Platform after creating a new site. Even in this case, a confirmation request is sent to the requester before equipment shipment.

  1. Verify the quote to ensure it matches the defined requirements.
  2. Have the planned connection diagram for the site validated by Climkit, if necessary.
  3. Validate the quote and specify the delivery address if it differs from the billing address.

The hardware is then delivered within 5 business days.

Adding Equipment to the Platform

Upon receipt of the hardware, it is recommended to create the site on the Platform and add the equipment there.

This preparation will facilitate commissioning by allowing direct verification of communication between the equipment and the Platform after installation on site.

Climkit Support

Climkit is available throughout the project to answer technical questions, validate certain choices, or assist with commissioning if necessary. This progressive coordination secures the installation process and limits adjustments at the end of the project.

Once the installation is complete and validated, Climkit handles the administrative setup with the owner, and then the site enters operation.

Climkit is available for any questions or assistance from planning to project commissioning, via email at service@climkit.io or by phone during office hours at 021 588 15 19.
