Great System Great Sevice -----Great Team

I have had an E-Solar system installed for about fourteen years. When first installed i had it put in to take advantage of the very high returns paid for the power returned to the grid. The initial contract I had with the electricity retailer was for ten years and for this period I did not have a power bill, actually i had a credit of some $6K After about 11years I decided to upgrade the system to a higher output solar panel and fit as battery. The idea was to put in place a system which would last me for the rest of my life. The upgraded system does not provide the returns i had previously but comes close with Government power assistance. My last bill was $17.80. The power usage in my home would be fairly standard plus it powers a Bore pump for the garden twice a week. Recently just a day before going away on leave i checked my solar system on line and found for some reason it was off line, i checked on the net and found the e-solar office was not open so decided to leave a sevice call for when i got back. Within minutes i had a call from Christy from E-Solar who had checked my system on line and said the fault had been triggered by the power grid, something that i had never had before, Christy gave me some instructions to reset the problem however it did not come back on line which i reported back, again within minutes Silvio the company manager had telephoned me from his car he was driving at the time, he said he would call in if I was home at a certain time. He arrived and within minutes reset the fault.

What a team I had called hoping for lodging a service call for when i returned from holidays and had the problem resolved straight away --Thank you E - Solar

Happy Customer

e-Solar was recommended to me by my niece who has had two systems installed by them. I had my second system installed last week and my brother also had his done a few months ago. That's five systems of which the oldest is probably around four years old and the newest just one week. We have not had any problems at all. Most importantly, we have received great service from Christy who is very helpful and always calls back if she can't take a call. My installation last week was done by Joe and Glen. Both were very helpful, friendly and accommodating. The installation was neat and tidy and the setup and commissioning went very smoothly. Based on my experiences I highly recommend e-Solar.

Five star review

Christy was fantastic when I spoke to her about our needs and were very competitive in price and product. She helped us with the right configuration to suit our lifestyle and power consumption. We opted for 2 batteries and so far, have done what we wanted them to do. Everybody has been great and easy going at E-solar and worked around us. Great family business. My in-laws used E-Solar and I am glad we did the same.

I had E-Solar install a 7.4Kw solar system with 6.5Kw battery.

I had E-Solar install a 7.4Kw solar system with 6.5Kw battery storage, system is blackout ready. The system is working magnificently and my power consumption from Synergy is now below 1Kw per day and it’s the middle of winter. Come summer I expect to be in credit. If you want to get a super solar system I totally recommend E-Solar 22 Canham Way, Greenwood WA 6024. Great service, great product and a very friendly team.
Thanks Christy and Silvio a job very well done. Stewart

Worth paying more for a better system

The company was very contactable. They turned up when they said they would to fit the system. They did the whole thing without any problems. Other quotes were very confusing. I also had a heat pump fitted for hot water which I had at my last property. When my gas bottle runs out I will be all electric and will look at a battery

Very happy with the whole package

From Christy in the office to Addy, the friendly installer who I might add, installed the system on his own in 36° heat, leaving not a skerrick of waste and the system and app working without a hitch, to Ben who followed up the next day was nothing but outstanding. Thanks for making it easy for me.

Quick and efficent.

This was our second solar installation by eSolar. The first one was over 10 years ago and we became used to not paying an electrical bill during that period of time. When the contract rebate ran out we went back to eSolar as we were very pleased with the first time we bought from them. The whole process from my enquiry to the finished product installation was carried out in a quick, efficient and professional manner. Thank you to Christy for all the information you sent. All the staff and installers were friendly, respectful and professional. A big thank you to Courtis and Harrison for being punctual, friendly, respectful, tidy and extremely efficient and proficient in the installation process. You did a fantastic job! We are very pleased with the installation and instructions you gave for the app. A big thank you for looking after my roof tiles - I very much appreciated that. I highly recommend this company if you are looking at getting solar.

Fantastic supply and install of solar

This is the second time we have used E-Solar. We used them to install solar at our last property. We sold our last house and our new home did not have solar. We contacted E-solar as soon as our sale went through. Once again their service was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and not pushy. Answered all our questions, explained the pricing structure and left it to us to decide. Once our order was placed we didn’t have to wait long for the installer to make contact and book the job. Our installer did a neat and tidy job. Helped with setup and the app on our phone. I can highly recommend using E-solar. Thank you once again for a great service.

Very impressed

Key points when choosing sola that we considered were, local company, good trading record, product knowledge, value for money.
Esola exceeded in all these categories' the process was simple from start to finish, Christy at Esola was very reassuring and answered all questions with ease.
We did look at other Sola companies but never got the same service and prompt interaction from them.
The install date was given and time set, again being contacted personally, the installers turned up spot on the set time, were very pleasant and removed all rubbish.
As for connection and checking the right meter etc Christy handled the lot.
Being local my wife can pop in on a face to face situation should we have any issues, we also liked the fact that Christy also monitors our system and is ready to step in and take action if she sees a fault etc.
Its a minefield out there with Sola companies and its not easy to choose, but do your self a favor and give Esola a ring!

Excellent Value with No Fuss

I was extremely impressed with the e-Solar's customer service ethic. The quoting process was easy, with all the options laid out, so that I could make an informed decision. All my questions were answered promptly, and accurately. I was especially happy that I always got to speak with a real person that knows what they were talking about. I never felt like just a number on a job-card.

The installation went well. The installers were quick and efficient, and tidy. Every step of the install was explained. The install also happened ahead of schedule.

I didn't have to worry about a thing. All the grid connection and rebate paperwork was handled on my behalf. The inverter and smart meter WiFi setup was handled as well.

Am I super-impressed? ... You bet!

2nd time installation

Had eSolar install a 6.6/5 Kw system on our house in April last year which all went very well and when our daughter built her terrace style house we went straight to eSolar for a quote. Again they came up with the goods providing a competitive plan which we went with. Due to the position of some roof vents ( a site inspection was not possible due to COVID restrictions) a modification had to be made to the layout but all achieved with no fuss. Again the installation guys were efficient, helpful and left no mess. Would highly recommend eSolar

Great Value and Very Efficient :-)

I was looking at having a Solar System installed in my newly built home - after a long research (too many operators out there - not all reliable) I decided to focus on 2 elements to make a decision: longevity in the Business (found horror stories online of operators installing Solar and going bust - goodbye warranty) and price/quality of install. I ended up choosing E-Solar for my System, the Team were great in recommending a Growatt Hybrid Inverter ( I originally wanted SMA but the Team showed my how to save 25% off my budget and get great quality) and Longi Panels. So far (install happened Nov 2020) my System has been producing an average of 1000 Kwh (my house is North West so not ideal - production stops at 2.30 - 3pm) - in summer days reaching peaks of 45 Kwh a day!!! Extremely happy with the install Quality and the overall experience with e-Solar from sales to installers were great and made the process easy - thanks E Solar!!!

Great local company

The sales/quoting process was excellent. Not pushy, knowledgeable, happy to help, went in to the show room where they showed us a working system and the different inverters and just went through everything with us.
The installation team were polite, punctual, fast, got the job done with no problems.
They have organised the connection to the grid and are available to answer any concerns.

Great system, fantastic customer service

I dealt with Christy from E-Solar and she has been excellent from beginning to after intallation. She provided a quote quickly and answered all my questions. Installation was organised within 10 days and all went ahead without a problem. After installation I realised Western Power hadn't done their update of the meter, I contacted Christy who followed it up for me and with 2 hours Western Power came out and completed their work. Fantastic service!

E Solar installation

The installation was completely free of issues, prompt, courteous, with a no time wasting happy installation team doing the installation.

Once the contract was signed, there was no further input needed from us from signing to "power on".

Very Happy

The installers had to cancel on the arranged day due to rain, but worked a Sunday to make up. Tom and his team worked on a 37 degree day, on a two story home and did a fantastic job, despite the heat. Very polite, efficient and helpful. When they left all was working perfectly (and still is).

Thank you Tom and E-Solar

Very happy with the solar panel installations

The eSolar Company in Canham Way Greenwood Perth have been really good to deal with. Always pleasant and helpful, providing us with quotes with no delay. Organising times for installation and answering phone queries ... they made sure everything went very smoothly.
The installers were really efficient, polite and friendly and quiet where possible. The connection to our Wifi was done so neatly and they cleared up really well before they left. Thank you to all from Moira and Race McCracken

A genuine business and product

This is a level of service that you rarely get nowadays; a personal service and quality product at an excellent price. When you call the contact number, Silvio will always answer in a pleasant and respectful manner. We are extremely happy with the 6.6 Kw installation.
From the time of first contact to the follow-up calls to ensure we were happy with the product, Silvio always dealt with us in a professional manner.
Installation was done over 2 days and the crew left the roof and surrounds in a tidy condition.
Thank you Silvio !

Amazing Customer Service All Round

From the very start e-solar has been amazing. From the first contact who gave me all the information i was after with no pushy sales pitch, allowing us to take time to decide. Once we decided to go ahead with the installation the next contact was friendly and had us booked in so quickly - i was shocked at how quickly it happened, but very pleased. Then the guys that came out to instal the panels were also super friendly, knowledgeable and kept me in the loop throughout the day. I will be recommending these guys to everyone who needs solar panels. Such a pleasure to support this business! Thanks so much E-Solar :) Very happy customers!

Five star plus !

Fantastic company to deal with from start to end.
Prompt response with clear quote without hidden costs, dealing with one person from start to end apart from admin part which was very prompt, helpful and polite. Silvio is very knowledgeable and experience in the field, local guy and thankfully was able to stir me away from doggy interstate cheap deals. which later as I discovered were rated one star rating on this site.
The installation was easy , great guys , punctual, efficient and tidy . The electrician was also helpful with my other inquiries which were not solar related.
We had some hiccups due to insufficient space on my roof , but it was addressed promptly and professionally.
I would highly recommend ESolar to anyone in Perth.

Great experience from e-solar right from our first phone call right through to installation and beyond

Thank you so much guys at e-solar we couldn't be happier from our first phone conversation with you, your advise and quotation which included removal from our roof and premises of our old system and installation of our new 18 panel sola system, your installation team were so professional and Curtis the the electrician very kindly offered to install the app on my husbands smart phone he loves checking out on how well our new system performs compared to our original, our next door neighbour followed our advise and changed his system over and is just as happy as we are, you turned up on time and on the day promised and installed both systems as per quote and to our satisfaction, we would recommend your company to anyone interested in installing a solar system on their roof regards Bryan Gwelup

Good choice of installer

This installer was easy to deal with, helpful and factual. This was a good experience. They turned up on time and were helpful and flexible in location of inverter. They were polite and friendly and cleaned up before leaving. After completion the operation of inverter, the use of the App were explained and installed on our phones. The system was up and running, no hassles, and we are happy customers. They also checked later if how the installation went and offered any help if we thought we required it.

Excellent all round

Great service from e-Solar. I received a phone call from the owner (Silvio) literally minutes after submitting a query on their website. The quote that followed shortly after was detailed and explained the various options well.

I was slightly surprised that the installation was carried out by a subcontractor but I can't fault the installer's work or professionalism.

e-Solar arranged the grid connection and my system was exporting as soon as the installation finished. I had a slight issue getting the inverter connected to my wifi but that was due to a miscommunication between myself and the installer and e-Solar had it sorted out promptly.

Highly recommended

Fantastic service, great price and quality products

Can't say enough good things about Silvio and Christy at e-Solar in regards to my purchase of a 6.4KW Solar System. Open and honest throughout the sales process, they provided me with all the information I needed to make an informed decision and didn't hassle me with the hard sell while I was looking at all my options.

Installation was a breeze, very professional throughout, arrived on time, very tidy and ran through the system before leaving the premises. The installation team did a great job with the installation of the panels, they put the invertor in the garage where I asked it to go and they left my premises clean and tidy with no mess and no fuss.

When they left it was up and running, producing power with no issues.

New Solar system.

From the minute I contacted e-solar , Silvio came back the next day with 3 different quotes and photos to match for installation purposes and full quotes which were self explanatory. From there it was up to me to make up my mind on which of the quotes we wanted.. I also got quotes from 3 other solar companies but only one came close to e-solar. After making the decision to go with e-solar everything went along in leaps and bounds with the company being in constant contact with me to explain were we were at along the way to installation. Even when the government changed the tariff structure they sent me an email in case I had missed the announcement, not that it affected me due to the prompt office staff. Then comes the installation and I could not be more impressed with Tom and his boys , explaining everything along the way. They made sure they cleaned up as they went so no paper blowing around. When finished Tom set it all up and made sure I understood everything. Even asked twice if I had any questions for him Certainly will recommend this company.
