They were previously Solararc . They put system in 3 years ago, Inverter went on me, replaced within 6 weeks, Recently Isolator on roof burst into flames,. Although i found it hard to get in touch with them inicialy ,they had it replaced and fixed with in a week.Very impressed with them and their honesty and after sales service. I got no argument or hesitation on fixing it.

The first supplier that contacted me was excellent. Very helpful, and we had a good chat and he gave me a rough price.
Second supplier quoted me and disagreed with a couple of my installation requirements.
He then rang me several times in the following weeks asking how I was going with my solar choice. When I told him that I had gone with a different company with the exact inverter and panels he quoted me for, yet $1500 cheaper he became argumentative.
The last supplier rang and made email contact after two-three weeks requesting contact.
I had already been shopping else where and found a company I was happy with and a quote I was also happy with.

These guys were fantastic. They organized an time to come out and see the place very quickly (within a day) and came prepared with some options but listened to what we were after before they presented any of them. They were totally flexible with the design and components as they were not tied to any specific brand. Installation was organized quickly as well and everything looks neat and professional. They were open about the advantages and issues of going with some of the cheaper components and helped us navigate the minefield of options. The system we ended up with was agreed by several other installers to be about the best 'budget' system you could get (still all with at least 10 years warranty)

Original Review on 02-09-2017:
Many suppliers tried to offer me a system size I didn't want, As I am adding battery backup in the future, I knew I needed a minimum of 5 kw system, preferably 6 kw, many tried to sell me 4/ 5 kw systems with low standard panels and inverters. Others quoted rules and regulations from other states that don't apply in SA, Accepted the highest quote because they are local, offered quality equipment and have a reputation of good workmanship and reliability. Original ratingsPanel rating: 5/5
Inverter rating: 5/5
Value for money: 4/5
Quality of System: 5/5
Installation: 5/5
Customer Service: 4/5
8 months later we asked Anthony: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
BETTER. The 6.2 KW system has proved fantastic, My last 3 Electricity bills have been in credit, a saving of around $1600.
