Request a quote

Once the requirements are defined, request a quote at info@climkit.io.

To avoid additional costs later on, it is important to identify in advance all the necessary elements according to the needs of the site and the owner, in particular:

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

In case of doubt about the configuration to choose or compatibility with an existing site, discussing it in advance with Climkit allows validating the planned connection diagram for the site and avoiding subsequent adjustments.

Structure of the Climkit quote

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

Categories
  • Gateway and connectivity
  • Electricity management
  • Energy optimization and storage management
  • Electric vehicle charging station management
  • Thermal energy and water management
  • Collective laundry management
  • eBike charging management
Product types
  • Technical equipment: devices to be installed on site, such as the Climkit Gateway, meters, or charging stations.
  • Software features: functions activated on the Gateway and billed only according to the ordered solutions.
  • Procurement and commissioning: services related to equipment preparation, technical coordination during installation, and commissioning.

It is recommended to consult the schematic diagrams for each planned solution in order to define the exact requirements before validating the quote.

Place 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 shipping the equipment.

See how to create a new site here.
  1. Check the quote to make sure it matches the defined requirements.
  2. Have Climkit validate, if necessary, the planned connection diagram for the site.
  3. Validate the quote and specify the delivery address if it is different from the billing address. Delivery is never made directly to construction sites.

The hardware is then delivered within 5 business days.

Add equipment to the platform

Upon receiving the equipment, it is recommended to create the site on the platform and add the equipment to it.

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

Install equipment on site

  1. Install the equipment in accordance with what was planned during the planning stage, following Climkit's instructions and the manufacturers' specifications.
  2. Verify on the platform that the equipment is communicating.
  3. Notify Climkit that the installation is complete in order to validate the technical setup.
  4. Provide the site owner's contact details to Climkit for the administrative setup.

Installer responsibilities

The installer or the person installing the equipment is responsible for the following:

  • Planning the installation according to the specific needs of the owner, providing all necessary products and equipment
  • Setting up a functional Internet connection or installing a Climkit 4G router with mandatory verification of the 4G signal quality where applicable
  • Creating the site and adding equipment to the platform
  • Installing and configuring equipment in accordance with manufacturer specifications and Climkit instructions
  • Commissioning equipment in accordance with Climkit specifications
  • Labeling and assigning meters and other equipment on the platform to avoid any errors during statement generation and billing
  • Verifying communication between meters/equipment and the platform
  • Notifying Climkit of commissioning to allow verification and validation
  • Providing Climkit with the complete contact details of the owner for administrative setup and drafting the management contract

Climkit Support

Climkit is available throughout the project to answer technical questions, validate choices, or assist with commissioning if needed. This step-by-step coordination secures the installation process and limits end-of-project adjustments.

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

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