Solar pannel and batteries
We will continue to supply and install high quality solar systems designed to fit your needs.
When purchasing a solar kit, making sure it is the right system for your living situation is key to getting your return on investment as fast as possible, choosing to use a bulk installer is not optimal as their kits are usually standard and they are completely inflexible in what they offer and therefore cannot be tailored to needs, based on the situation.
Usually retired people and those who work from home will see the fastest returns when installing solar; especially when they use electric heating system, such as our heat pumps. Local is the key to ensuring your solar solution leaves you satisfied. If you use a local electrician or small solar business you are much more likely to get a high quality and long lasting solar install. The number of solar systems installed by bulk installers that we repair is overwhelming.
There are two rebates that you can be eligible for:
The Victorian Solar Rebate – only available to lower income home owners, and only if your property value is below a certain threshold and is only available once per person. It should be noted that we do not participate in Victorian Solar Rebate, unlike bulk solar installers. However you may find our prices are comparable anyway, however we cant offer finance on our systems.
The Federal solar rebate – Almost all households are eligible for this rebate.
There are 3 main systems we offer, based on your personal requirements we will help guide you in the right direction.
Redback Grid Connect Battery System
We use Redback hybrid inverter/battery because:
Redback products are designed in Australia
They offer both single phase and three phase options
Units are Modular, batteries can be easily added to or replaced
Redback’s online monitoring is second to none
All fits in a relatively small and tidy package
Enphase
We use Enphase systems:
They do not require high voltage DC electricity running around your roof, making units safer
They offer single panel control and monitoring.
They're great for limited roof space or fragmented arrays.
Units tend to provide a greater yield than conventional string inverters.
They’re perfect for multi-phase installations, as 3 phase string inverters are very expensive
We will offer these kits if you have a shading issue or lack the roof space for the panels required & can be handy for multi-phase installations.
FRONIUS and SELECTRONIC
FRONIUS
We use Fronius because:
Units are simple and of high quality,
Everything is made in Austria, with great local support
SELECTRONIC
We use Selectronics becuase
They have a 25-year life span
They're made in Australia
Systems are a classic off grid type system that works with any battery
Pairs with the Fronius inverters seamlessly, and can be added to an existing system with a little extra work
We have built a few “preppers” systems that are massive for domestic applications and can be totally independent from the grid if needed.
Solar panels
What panels we offer is based completely on availability, but will only offer tier 1 panels.
We can obtain, Korean, Taiwanese or Australian panels if you request, you absolutely can tell the difference in quality.
Tindo panels are made in South Australia and are very well made.
