Installer start-up guide (read first)
This guide is intended for installers integrating Climkit solutions into their projects, from the preparation phase to commissioning.
It serves as a support for both simple and complex installations, helping to identify key points, structure planning, and secure each step.
The content covers the principles of the various Climkit solutions, the information to be collected on-site, configuration procedures on the platform, equipment installation on-site, as well as the checks to be carried out during commissioning.
This approach ensures a compliant installation, reliable equipment communication, and a controlled commissioning.
Planning and installation of equipment
The installer is responsible for site planning and equipment installation on behalf of their client, the owner. Once the work is completed, the latter mandates Climkit as the manager of the energy installation.
Climkit supports the installer throughout the project to define solutions adapted to the site and the owner's needs, validate certain technical choices when necessary, and ensure the correct setup of equipment.
This approach establishes a clear framework from the start while maintaining the necessary flexibility to adapt to the specific constraints of each installation.
Complete Installer Guide
This article introduces the documentation for Climkit installers, organized by project stage.
It is not necessary to read articles concerning solutions not planned for the site. However, for each selected solution, the entire corresponding path must be followed, from planning to on-site installation.
In case of questions during planning or installation, Climkit teams can provide technical support and validate certain points before commissioning.

4. Verification and tests
Technical setup validation of the installation
After on-site installation and technical commissioning of the equipment, Climkit performs a remote technical validation before the start of the administrative setup.
The installer informs Climkit by email at service@climkit.io when the installation is complete and the configured equipment is correctly connected and transmitting its data.
A Climkit support agent then checks the site configuration and the correct operation of the equipment remotely.
If corrections are necessary, Climkit contacts the installer and indicates the adjustments to be made before validation.
Once technical validation is complete:
- Once technical validation is complete, the label provided with the order, marked "Warning - metering system in service", must be visibly affixed to the electrical panel.
- The site can proceed to the administrative setup stage.
Administrative setup and operation
After the installation and technical validation of the equipment, the installer transmits the owner's contact details to Climkit. Climkit then assists the owner or their property management in the administrative setup of the site: entering consumer contact details, defining consumption tariffs, and management procedures.
Once these elements are defined, a management contract is established. Climkit offers a complete billing management service on behalf of the owner, guaranteeing precise individualization of consumption (electricity, heating, laundry, charging stations, etc.).
This centralized management ensures simplified and transparent operation for all stakeholders.
