This release sharpened battery certificate figures, added configurable job paperwork, brought hot-water heat pumps into your quotes, and gave installers their own secure access. Here's everything that shipped, grouped by area, with what each change means for your solar business.
What changed in this Solar Proof update?
In short: battery STC quantity separation and custom jobsheets for more accurate, cleaner paperwork; full heat pump support with datasheets; an installer dashboard login with a security log and block checking; hardened email sending; and improved HubSpot CRM import. Each is detailed below.
How is quoting accuracy and job paperwork improved?

More accurate certificates on combined solar-and-battery proposals. Check figures with the free STC calculator.
- Custom jobsheets — build job sheets tailored to your install process so your team has exactly the information they need on site. Cleaner, purpose-built paperwork for every job. See how installers use it in the solar installer portal.
- Configurable install particulars & existing-system details — capture installation specifics and any existing system on the property in fields you control, keeping records complete and consistent. Accurate site records that flow through to compliant paperwork. Best practice in the 10 rules of quoting solar systems.
