STEP ONE

Consultation

Our team of solar experts will  come to you, evaluate your home’s solar potential, discuss your current electricity bill and check your roof suitability.

STEP THREE

Installation

Depending on the size of your system and your type of roof, the installation can take anything from 4 or 8 hours – or a couple of days. An electrician and solar installer will fix and wire the panels to the roof, install the inverter, hook it up to your internet router or cellular network (if monitoring is required), establish any additional items required to control hot water or other appliances better and prepare the system to be switched on.

STEP  FIVE

Away you go!

The project manager will test the system, explain any useful tips about operation and monitoring and then leave you to enjoy years of free energy straight from the sun!

FAQ

Frequently Asked
Questions

All your Solar questions answered

Will Solar work in NZ?
+

Absolutely! New Zealand has abundant sunshine and generates between 1,700 and 2,100 sunshine hours annually. Some areas, like Nelson and Gisborne, receive as much as 2,400. Solar Panels don’t require sunshine; they require daylight, so Solar Panels work year-round, even in the lower South Island.

How many Panels do I need?
+

The average energy consumption is essential in determining the number of Solar Panels you need. A retired couple will have a different power consumption than a young family, plus pools, spas, and electric cars can also impact energy requirements.

The amount of energy Solar Panels can generate depends on sun hours and is therefore affected by your location.

Your roof size is crucial because it determines the number of Panels that can fit on your roof, how much energy will be generated, and the cost.
