Great installer

We recently purchased a solar system through MLEC Solar Perth and are very happy with the overall experience. There was a bit of miscommunication at the beginning, but after contacting them again with the help of SolarQuotes, things were quickly resolved. Out of the four companies I contacted, MLEC was the only one that took the extra step of sending someone to check my house before the installation. Darren came out, clarified all my doubts, and helped me choose the best option for my needs.
The installation team also did an excellent job. Everything has been working exactly as promised so far. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend MLEC Solar to anyone considering solar!

Excellent service

We went with Jinko panels and a Sungrow inverter. The system was installed promptly and is working much better than anticipated. Especially since it was installed in winter. We have been surprised by the amount of kwhs generated despite cloudy or even rainy days.
MLEC was very friendly, helpful and professional during the whole process. Minor hiccup was sorted promptly

Good followup

The MLEC care team were brilliant, especially Luke, who was amazing, caring and went above and beyond. What ever luke is being paid is not enough.
The ceiling was replaced by Jaimie, who was very skilled with Luke assisting him, and painted by a professional painter.
Luke returned after the painter and fixed a minor issue with the plaster immediately and also checked in after the work was completed.

The Inverter installer, James was also professional and thanks also to Darren for getting the care team on site on the Sunday when the damage first started,

I went from 1 star to 4 1/2 as there followup work was amazing, it's just disappointing that an employee would've known he broke a tile which resulted in a lot of people being displaced.
Was also a shame, management did not personally followup with my initial calls to apologise and when repairs would commence which i had to make several calls for.

I would have no issues recommending MLEC,

A job well done.

The sales person contacted us by phone with initial questions, then we arranged a site visit. The sales person listened to us, answered our questions and we settled on an outline of what we wanted to have installed. The finished quote was completed within a day after a few goes back and forth working out finer details.
The installation was on time, though unfortunately the same day as the first significant rain we had for a few months. Most of the indoor work was finished, but it wasn't safe to work on the roof so the day was cut short. The crew was back a few days later to complete the installation. The finished work was neat and tidy.
MLEC took care of all the connection approvals.

Hey Peter,

Excellent from start to finish.

Excellent process from start to finish. Spoke to 2 sales people that visited the house. They did a thorough review of our needs, made some recommendations and we purchased the system.

Installation was booked and the technicians arrived on time on the day. Very tidy and professional.

They showed me the app, installed and system runs like a charm

Highly recommended.

Highly recommend this company

I was really impressed with this company. They came out to quote and were happy to discuss different systems, why they recommended some over others and answer any questions I had. The installers were equally professional and did a great job. The back up service afterwards when I had a question was also fabulous, quick and efficient. I would highly recommend this company!

Good salesperson not so good installer

Sales quoting process good. He answered all my many questions. Installation was good till before the commissioning.Tech was polite, but he didn't know how the western power required device works. I had to download the instructions from the internet (he could do the same, it's his job). He took more than 2hrs to understand that he plugged a cable in the wrong port on the inverter, and bc of that the system wasn't working. If i didn't check the production on the app he would have left telling me to call the company the day after for any issues. He didn't know that the inverter, once the 3kw limit had been set up, works at steps. Finally they sold me the monitoring Device required by western power as a power limiting Device, it is actually a power meter, and $500 more for that, are a bit too much. Installation time 15 minutes.

Hey Emanuele,

Thank you for taking the time to provide your detailed feedback. We're pleased to hear that our sales process met your expectations and that your questions were thoroughly answered. However, we apologize for the issues you encountered during the commissioning phase of your installation.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as our technician worked through the technical challenges. We acknowledge that there was a learning curve in this instance, and we are taking steps to ensure our team is better prepared in the future.

Regarding the power meter, I'd like to clarify that the $500 cost covers both the supply and the installation, which involves a comprehensive process including cabling and commissioning. This process is quite intricate and typically takes significantly longer than 15 minutes to ensure everything is correctly set up and functioning as intended.

We understand the importance of accurate and transparent communication about our services and pricing. We will continue to work on improving in these areas. Your feedback is invaluable to us in our ongoing efforts to enhance our service quality.

If you have any further concerns or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're committed to ensuring your satisfaction with our services.

Could not be happier!

Sales process was great. They were the only company that actually really listened to what I wanted and it was never a hassle to ask one more question. More than happy to provide comparable quotes so I could work out how they costed out compared to theirs ((made it so much easier to cross check quotes). Came straight out to do a sight visit the moment I asked.

Install was seemless. Rocked up on time. Install is neat and tidy. Walked me through what was going to happen and didn’t pick up a tool until we were all happy things were going to go to plan. Checked in with me the whole time.

I did nothing about the grid connection (besides show them a copy of out bill), they handled everything in the back end for me.

Great service

I decided to go with MLEC after 3 different quotes because they were the first and only company who would not provide a quote without sighting my property - significant due to building heights and shadowfall. From start to finish, the staff were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I was also impressed with the business ethic of this 'small' and well established company, who offer not only parts warranty, but also 20 years service warranty. I cannot believe any company would survive for the time they have if they had to return and repeat labour for many of their installations!

I would definitely recommend this group to family and friends.

Hi Leslie,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! It means a lot to us that you recognized the importance we place on inspecting properties firsthand to ensure the best setup for our clients.

Unprofessional solar installation

Recently had a solar system installed at my home. Thought everything went well, after installation installer said everything was set up and safe to use. After a week I decided to call synergy to confirm all was okay, they have informed me they had no idea I had the solar system installed, they then mentioned that I hadn't had the meter upgrade and it is unsafe to run the system while using this old meter. The installer had not mentioned this at all, and as previously mentioned had said everything was ready to go and the system was all good to run. I have tried to contact the company about this but still am waiting to hear back after a week.
Not impressed at all, especially considering I would've had no idea to turn the system off unless I called synergy.

Dear Alex,

I'm Benjamin James Morrison, the director at MLEC Solar, and I'm personally reaching out to address the concerns you mentioned in your review. Your feedback is crucial to us, and I want to assure you that we've taken your situation very seriously.

I understand that the issue you've faced with Western Power replacing your meter after the solar installation has caused some distress. After thoroughly investigating the situation, I'd like to clarify that MLEC followed all the correct processes and obtained the necessary approvals from Synergy and Western Power prior to installing the solar system.

The problem with the meter not being replaced seems to be due to an electrical fault in the home, specifically the presence of current in the natural wire when the power is off. This is an uncommon and unfortunate situation that was beyond our control.

However, we believe in standing by our customers and taking full responsibility to ensure your satisfaction. As a sign of good faith, we have arranged for Matthew, our Installation Manager, to visit your site on the 10th of August to make the necessary repairs free of charge. While he's there, we'll also perform a comprehensive check on the system to give you peace of mind.

I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. Our team is committed to providing top-notch service, and we're taking all necessary steps to resolve this matter to your satisfaction. Please feel free to contact me directly on 0406950140 if you have any further questions or need additional assistance.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and I appreciate your patience as we work to rectify the situation.

5 Star Solar Experience

Out of the 3 other local solar companies I engaged only MLEC was willing to come out to our home to provide a quote. The whole experience from the sales consultant visit through to the system being install just two later was a breeze. Communication throughout was great and the in-house installation team were amazing; efficient, polite and extremely tidy and they set up and fully explained the app for the system.
System performance has been great and we are now really starting to see the real financial benefits with our power bills reducing by over 60%. Extremely happy with MLEC and would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience

I recently had the pleasure of working with the MLEC team for my solar and battery installation needs. I would like to give a special shoutout to Jake, who I believe was the team leader. Jake demonstrated a remarkable level of dedication and skill in ensuring that everything was completed to perfection. The entire team impressed me with their work ethic and commitment to excellence.

Furthermore, Karim, the sales consultant, was extremely practical throughout the entire process and provided invaluable assistance. I greatly appreciated his helpfulness and guidance.

Overall, I highly recommend the MLEC team for their outstanding work and exceptional customer service. If you are in need of solar and battery installation services, look no further than the MLEC team.

Damaged property

The electrical contractor sent to install my system has somehow managed to surge the power while drilling into the wall during installation and damaged a number of appliances in the house including a very costly chlorinator which has a completely fried circuit board due to a power surge. Mlec is refusing to acknowledge this damage as their responsibility suggesting it was probably just a coincidence. Highly recommend keeping clear of this business.

Hi Daniel,
MLEC takes this kind of issue very seriously and as a local and family-owned company, prides itself on its integrity, taking full responsibility and honouring our industry leading workmanship guarantee when we are at fault. However, in this instance, as was clearly highlighted to you on the day of installation (24/2) by our in-house fully trained/licenced and approved electrician, your outdated, 13 year old smoke alarm that does not meet with WA’s Building Regulations, and as per Australian Standards stipulate an operating life of 10 years, after which the alarm’s sensitivity and functions can decline, unfortunately due to no specific reason, it malfunctioned. This was a completely isolated incident and not in any way connected to the work that was being undertaken on the installation of your solar system as this was on the opposite side of the building that our electricians were working. After looking at the smoke alarm it was found that the wires connecting to the smoke alarm were loose and fell out of their terminals. The install team undertook a full check of your system and offered to provide you with a new smoke alarm to ensure you were compliant, however this was refused, therefore our team made sure that the circuit for the malfunctioning smoke detector was completely secured before leaving you at the end of the installation.

On the 10/3, 2 weeks after the installation, you then reported to us that your pool chlorinator was burnt out and that this was related to the malfunctioning smoke detector incident, even though again we clearly communicated that this wasn’t connected to the solar installation work undertaken. Regardless as a gesture, we sent one of our electricians to your property on the same day to look at the issue. After completing another full check of your system and testing all circuitry, it was deemed that your chlorinate did not have any surge protection, and therefore although there was no direct evidence, if was possible that when the smoke detector tripped it may have been the reason for the pool chlorinator failing. Since then, one of our directors has also been in contact with you to further discuss the issue, we have even offered to replace your smoke detector free of charge as a token of good will even though this issue was of no fault of MLEC. As you can clearly see, we have ensured that we have done everything we can to assist you in this matter and as has been communicated since the day of installation, MLEC was not liable for this unfortunate issue.

A very successful experience with WA people

MLEC was referred by a neighbour. The sales rep. was prompt, very informative and investigated possible problems concerning installation of solar cells and inverter to our preferred location, before providing a quote which compared favourably to 3 other installers. Installation within 2 weeks of the quote, was done in 2 days by efficient, neat, competent, friendly people and matched exactly that proposed by the sales rep. The installer explained personally the use of the monitoring app (on my iPhone). All requirements regarding connection to the grid were completed by MLEC.

Very Happy

Their consultant was very approachable, knowledgeable and happy to assist, I’m on a carers allowance and my Wife is on sickness benefits so finding finance for anything is 'difficult'. after a few dead ends the consultant found a lead that 'may' be successful (which it was!) he went out of his way to help - even with after hours calls. As soon as finance was approved a date for installation was set! The Installation team was working in the area and finished a job so called me to see if they could arrive early, after a quick friendly chat I instructed them where I would like the inverter then left them to it, they did their reconnaissance and made it happen! From my perspective all I had to do was say yes or no and provide my details and the MLEC team took care of ‘everything’ else, it couldn’t have gone smoother! A big thanks to the MLEC team, we wanted solar for many years and they made it happen, very professional, the product and the process was high quality.

Great System

We decided on a solar and battery option. We liked the Solar Edge system we chose because we can add onto it in the future should we decide to get an electric vehicle for example. We’ve only had the system for a couple of weeks and have been tracking our usage via the app with great interest.

Excellent installation

MLEC we’re very good in terms of information supplied and the quote was very competitive. All quotations missed the fact that whilst I have 3 phase power at the meter and in my workshop, my house was only single phase. MLEC arrived on time, with a 3 phase inverter but this was identified and rectified immediately with no delay in the installation. The price was then adjusted accordingly.
Installation was quick and effective. Original ratings

3 phase 10kw and battery/s

Luke visited us and delivered us a truthful quote on a large system and battery with option of more batteries, Luke is one of the best reps I have delt with which will sit well with MLEC.
I had a 10kw and battery system fitted which matched with the 3 phase of my house, the teams that fitted the system were very helpful, polite, but most of all the quality of workmanship was to a very high standard, the sparky advised I needed some extra devices to prevent panel string drop out due to shade, had them fitted,.
The system has now been working for my property and providing electrical power and I should see the benifits of the system for the future.
With the app you get real time generation and power consumption for the property and battery state which will help the home owner use power wisely and leisurely, well worth the expense as it will take a few years to pay it self off but in the long term good for me.
The inverter and battery set is neat in appearance not overly large fits in well with the house outside decor.
The inverter is a very radio quiet unit with minimal spurious noise for AM and hf, short wave reception.
All in all I would recommend MLEC for a solar system.
The only dampener was MLEC were held up by the power company and govt by fitting monitoring devices to inverters and taking their time.
Once cleared from power company holdups and govt red tape MLEC set a install date and did the job to perfection
I will consider a second battery

Bad Service, Poor Communication, Misleading Sales

After spending $30000 on a solar installation, And explaining what we will be using this for they installed a system, and it's costing me more now.

They throw their shoulder up and says Mate it's done and they installed the system, Have never experienced such bad service in my life.

I will NOT recommend them at all they have no idea what they doing and the electricians have no knowledge of working out the usage needed.

Hi Lenard.

Thanks for taking the time to outline your concerns. Since your initial review of our services was a 5 star positive one, my understanding is that the frustrations you have outlined above lie with the performance of your system since then. After opening an investigation into your case, I have found that we have taken the following steps in attempting to rectify your concerns: -Outlined and explained the power production to you -Offered to come to your property and test the energy draw & recommend a solution if necessary -Explained the system performance estimate that was sent with your supplied quote, which demonstrated that during the indicated estimated time period, the system performed well within the estimates we provided to you at the time of quoting. -Offered to come and walk you through the monitoring system for your solar setup. Following up from this, Company Director Ben Morrison personally came out to site and verified the solar system supplied to you was working, and found that it was producing power corresponding to the estimate we provided you at time of sale. He also provided reasoning for the circumstances that have created your high power bill, and attended site to confirm the load. Furthermore, Ben offered you an alternate way you can have the bill verified by a third party provider in Synergy. Ben is a highly experienced, highly qualified electrician who is CEC certified and has overseen countless commercial installations just like your own. He has been open in his communications with you, and has made several attempts to rectify your concerns. We understand that you are unhappy with your Synergy bills, however MLEC Solar is not responsible for the power costs that occur after the system is installed. Despite this, we have made efforts to rectify your concerns, and hope we can find an adequate resolution together.

Poor installation

Not happy with how they have installed our solar, rang and told them to basically been told to deal with it not happy at all, installers have left wire and rubbish in our garden and on the roof.

Cables in conduct outside and all saddles not evenly space with different screws in each saddle, to pay for what we got is just really poor on workmanship and not professional as they say.

Somewhat confusing

Quote was clear and prompt. I signed agreement with Now Solar but installation was completed by MLEC.

Installers were polite, tidy and punctual. Panel layout was not done according to diagram which was dissappointing
as it reduced exposure to sunlight. Fronius inverter malfunctioned on second day throwing RCD. Crew attended later that day and checked that all was safe. New unit will be installed 1 week after incident.

MLEC organized the grid connection which was done on same day as installation Original ratings
