Painless.

Nothing more to say really. They were very professional, the system was installed within 2 weeks, on the day they advised and completed to my total satisfaction.

I went through Solar Consultants in the initial inquiry.

2 of the 3 companies actually came to my house for the quote, the 3rd was an online quote.

The guy from Bradford's didn't try & push any size system he instead advised me to take down my power usage figures for the week & let him know so as to get the right size system rather than buying something I didn't need. This resulted in being able to get the right size at the right price. It's been installed & working great spinning the dial backwards since day 1 .

15 months later we asked Karen: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"

System is still working well but can't understand why its not producing as much feeding bak to the tariff as much - considering we haven't had rain and I also haven't added anything that should use much more power.

13 months later we asked Arthur: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"

I don't know if I'm expecting too much but we've had solar panels since November 2010 and, even though they face due north, have not seen any where near the maximum output. We installed 14 X 195w panels on 18/11/2010 and added 6 X 190w panels on 23/08/2011. Since 07 December 2010 (When the new meter was installed) and until 10 September 2012 we have drawn 9815kwh from the grid and fed 5340kwh into it.

Five Star Energy had the best price for the system. I wanted the way the whole deal was handled and it was fantastic. The installation went smoothly and the installers were efficient and clean and tided up after the job was completed. I have only praise for the whole outfit. Original ratings

System installed over long weekend, power supplier (AGL) just notified for their meter box attention.

System includes 2kW inverter for future additional solar panel installation.

I have given the installers a rating of four stars[Good] If the system works as good as i think it will I will lift the rating to five star. Only time will tell as to the quality of the panels and inverter.

I am more than happy with the supplier I got and the installer was professional and more than helpful.
Good from start to finish and I'm very happy.

Person who gave quote was an electrician with many years in the trade. Office staff were helpful when telephoned. Installation carried out within a reasonable time once contract signed. Installers seemed capable and kept me informed during process.

We wanted to make sure that not only did we get good value for money but that we understood the whole process. Danny Karlson was outstanding in his explanation of the system making two trips to Mt Mee. The company is also backed by Dixon/Tamawood Homes so we have peace of mind with the warranty. The system was installed within 3 weeks and one week later Energex put in the new meter. So all in all, a good experience and very happy with the company.
