Early days yet but happy so far - very pleasant team to work with.20 January 2021
Aussie Farmers group, great system thanks
Thank you, Aussie Farmers Group Solar, on the solar system installed, this really helps to offset my power cost, the solar + battery costs, using a 10KW solar and 15KW storage battery, during the summer a negative balance in my account to cover my winter cost, for the first 81 days my grid use was about 75kwh, (mmm someone left the oven on overnight) credit of $520 output of 5KW to the grid per hour, this is going to have a long term benefit will past the time i finish paying for the solar system, Aussie farmers group recommended I join Discover Energy, which I joined their VPP Smart network with awesome solar feed in tariff rates,on the install they were very professional the workers will manned.
thank you for a great job overall.
Why a 15KW battery, my daily total power average is 32KW per day over the last 4 years, after 81 days my battery usage has been about 85%, total self-sufficiency of 96% since install, and a grid input of 3000plus KW

Good company to deal with
Only problem was 6.6kw system could not be installed when they discovered the cable size to grid was insufficient diameter for 160m distance from supply pole so only 4kw ended up being installedOtherwise could not fault their service

Great service. Thorough quote. Local and very approachable

More than happy
Hi Finn!You must have read my mind. I started an email to you the other day but didn't finish it.
Yes we did go ahead and it was installed on Thursday. Had to leave before they had finished and haven't been home since.
You recommended Aussie Farmers Solar Group who we got in touch with. Michael came and had a look and gave us a price. We contacted two other companies, one of them came and had a look and gave us a quote, the other wanted to give us a price without looking. We told them not to bother.
Originally we went with second company, even though they were dearer and a smaller system as my partner liked the idea that they said their panels were made in Sth Aust.Â
However we didn't like the way they were handling things especially with the finance from their own company.
I gave Michael a call (Aussie Farmers) and gave them the job. Rang finance company they recommended and approved straight away unlike the back and forth with the other one.
Was booked in for the 14th Sept but Michael rang at 4pm on the 9th and asked if they could do it next morning.
They arrived at 7.30 and I was impressed with the work ethics and organisation of the installers. The person in charge recommended putting optimizers on 6 of the panels which we agreed to. Michael's wife rang us at 11.30 to say that they were finished.Â
Over all were extremely happy.
I'm positive that if we have any problems they will be rectified immediately.
Thanks for your reccomendation.

All good so far.
From your recommendation I rang Aussie Farmers they came inspected the property and gavevme a quote. The quote seemed reasonable and i said go ahead but unfortunately they were busy and couldn't start till a couple of days ago. The installers were polite and professional but cancsay more as they haven't finished job and Origin have still not put in the new meter.29 March 2020
Really happy with the way Aussie Farmers Group quoted and installed the solar system
A sales representative came to my house, checked out the best place for the solar panels and gave me a quote. The installation was done quickly without any problems. The workers and electrician were very polite,tidy and the job completed quickly. The office staff organized with my supplier the grid connection. I received an email from them and had to organize a new plan with solar rebate included. I was connected within 10 days of signing up. Very happy with Aussie Farmers Group.18 February 2020

Original Review on 13-04-2019:
Have only just moved into the new place, so it’s not installed yet. Aussie Solar have been very easy to deal with. They seem to know what they’re talking about, and seem pretty genuine. I don’t feel they’d rip us off. We’ve only just had roof measured up (only just got the keys) and should be getting it installed in the next five weeks.8 months later we asked Thomas: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Very happy with the system. Have been comparing it with similar-sized systems in the town, and regularly outperform them by a few kilowatts a day.04 September 2019
