Company went bust, no decent communication until the unit failed. Costing us a fortune. Have not saved a cent.

Awesome job!

Competitive price and keep up to their word in pricing. Installation dates well communicated and changes communicated in a timely manner . Customer friendly. However, I would suggest it’s good to give a call back and enquire a week later after the installation and to keep customers happy.
Pro-active ness in customer relation could improve.

Good quality and price, looking forward to savings!

Good installation, done in one day. Made some suggestions with customer service which they very openly took up about texting what time the installers will show up, and giving direction about how and who to complete payment to. Still just waiting to organize the wifi so the system can be monitored from the phone app, and will see the savings on out bill soon!

Great service

The sales and quoting process was very informative. When it come to the installation day the guys turned up bright and early. Very friendly and professional. Answered all of my questions and showed me how everything worked.The installers called me the next day to see if I had any questions and again a week later to see if everything was good. Can't recommend these guys enough!

Very Good Purchasing and Installation Process

The salesman from the company I chose was very knowledgeable and was the only one to get on the roof to inspect the old system which was to be replaced. Only two of the salespeople came to the house, the third gave a proposal over the phone and email.

Installation was on time and quick with multiple people working. They also took the old system away.

All admin around connection was organised by the customer service team.

Great service and excellent sales person Mark.

Mark came and explained the syste...he was professional and knowledgeable.Main reason I went with Lumak is down to Mark.
Installers came and did the job in a day...very polite,tidy and helpful.
Only issue I had was a delay in getting Ergon the EWR and from install to getting the system running took a month.However it is running well and I am happy.Should have done this years ago.
Show Details

Very fast and efficient Install

Very Laid back sales process, no pressure, in fact had fun.
The guys turned up earlier than expected an got on with the job immediately, worked very tidily and were super easy to get along with.
Grid connection all organised just waiting for Ergon to do their bit.

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

The system is fine but it was not correctly installed and after much frustration with support from the company I phoned a local electrician who fixed it in a couple of hours.

So happy we got Solar!

With Solar, we're not scared of having aircon during a hot day in Cairns. Lumax's sales staff was amazing. Max educated us well and answered our all our questions. We were impressed with Jamie who contacted us personally on the day he installed it. The after sales staff was great with follow up as well. Thank you Lumax Solar!

If it could go wrong, it did go wrong.

22/8/19 Luke quoted on job
12/11/19 Lumax installed 21 of 22 panels. Tariff 33 not all disconnected. They did connect us to the grid.
20/12/19 Many phone calls later, got Leon on site. 22nd panel still in the warehouse!
16/1/20 Received Electricity bill from Ergon No record of Solar connection?
17/1/20 Several hours on phone to Ergon & Lumax. Our paperwork was submitted with the wrong address!
22/1/20 Ergon received correct paperwork but didn't recognize our solar credit for previous 2½ months. Formal complaint lodged.
30/1/20 22nd panel installed, Tariff 33 disconnections completed.
10/2/20 After numerous phone calls between Ergon and Lumax, finally granted some Pro rata solar credit.
5½months, countless phone calls & excuses, extreme stress, we think the saga is now over.

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

So far the system installed has been working without any issues. Only complaint is lack of customer support from lumax solar. It has been three weeks since i first contacted them about my tariff 33 not being disconnected. Several phone calls later and they still havent resolved the matter. How hard is it to disconnect tariff 33 which they were suppose to have done as part of their contract of installation?

Excellent service and product

They even managed to get me in earlier than booked. Installers very proficient and speedy.

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

No it hasn't. I was practically guaranteed i would not be paying for power as our energy bills prior to instal were so cheap. I still find myself paying 1/2 to 3/4 of my old bill making my return on investment a lot longer. I am still very happy i decided to install a solar system but it does not meet expectations.

The Townsville floods got in the way of our install but the delay wasn't an issue for me. Dean was very good at keeping up communication. The installation team were great to do a site assessment and then place the panels in a more difficult location for them to keep a fussy homeowner happy! Very glad to have used Lumax for my solar needs and happy to recommend them to others.

Good communications from installer to sales let me know of times and date of install and back up service was also good and helping.

During the last few months we have been bombarded with solar offers by pop up ads on our phones and internet and even snail mail. We have received unsolicited email offers as well as what seems to be endless array TV ads. It was easy to lose the quotes your suppliers gave us in all the "noise". However, the eventual supplier was the only one that visited my house and explained the system to us. As I was expecting this offer, I was actually looking for his companies emailed quote.

The two men that came here and were gentlemen. They got on with the job and had it done in no time. They didn't stand around, just knew what to do. Cant fault anything, cleaned up after they had finished.

Installation looks neat and professional. Installers cleaned up after themselves. Lumax did all the paperwork with Ergon. I chose a non-China inverter and am very pleased with the ABB system installed. Installers arrived ontime and completed the work in the one day. I am very happy with the work done and would recommend Lumax to anyone.

After using SOLAR QUOTES(great site), Lumax solar was the first company to call me back. WOW, Service was second to none at the start. Mark the salesman was great and talked the company up. Mark needs a pay rise! Installation guys turn up early and over two days installed the system.After sales service has been slow and many e-mails and calls to the office too get the job completed. I was a happy customer after 5 weeks waiting. Thanks Daniel & Mark. Happy with my solar system, hope after sales service gets better in the future.

An excellent project from start to finish - sales with adjustments were well managed, communications were at the fore front all the time. The install team were in, cleaned up, then out after completion, very efficient. It was kinda cool to have a project run through with only a couple of oopsies, but nothing unsolvable, if the system delivers as planned will be a great investment. Thanks & do recommend Lumax as a good experience.

The service was excellent, phone calls were returned in a timely manner, they were very knowledgeable about process and product and were happy to take the time to answer my husband's many questions. There was no hard sell and they just made the whole experience easy. They kept us informed as to what was to happen next and that is what did happen. I would highly recommend Lumax and their staff to anyone considering the addition of solar panels to their home.
