Still a Happy customer a year on in!
After obtaining 6 quotes for various 5 to 10kW solar system for my mother’s property in the Samford area in Feb 2020 we chose Macdonald Air and Electrical.Alex attended site and suggested what equipment he could install, along with a detailed site report and quote for equipment options he had suggested.
The main thing that struck me with Alex (Macdonald Air and Electrical) was the total lack of sales talk/pressure trying to push the sale to “get the job” he was honest and up front with what he was quoting and why.
His price was his price to get the job done right by his company!
He quoted good quality equipment at a reasonable price compared with other quotes for similar/same equipment.
Fronius 10.0-3-M 31x350W Longi Solar Hi-MOX panels
Installation was fast and went well after a small delay only due to rain.
All his team were polite and very tidy even when the boss was not around the focus was on getting the job done.
Good to see in this day and age, very happy with his whole team.
From quote to completion and grid connection I would do the same again 100%.
I would not hesitate to recommend, and have passed his company name on to others since our installation for Solar and other electrical work.
Since the above Solar install I have also had Macdonald Air and Electrical install a 18kW fully ducted multi zone AC system at my mothers house and a 25kW ducted system at my house.
More than happy with this company.

Customer focussed and good installation team
Alex was only supplier to really think about size of system. The team which showed up were a good bunch of guys and did a good tidy job. Have yet to see how it goes as smart meter not yet installed.Have since asked MacDonald A&E to come back and do some other work on house.

Fantastic solar
Just had our system installed Alex and the team did an amazing job. He spent the time discussing various options and was very accommodating when I decided to add a battery to the setup.I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome solar setup.

Wonderful experience
We had a Fronius 8.2kw inverter and 29x Jinko panels installed recently by the team at Macdonald Air & Electrical. The system design was shown to us along with the quote and on the day the team explained to us how to monitor the system and the job was done neat and tidy. We have access to an online app to see our production and consumption and we are on track for a credit. Good news considering our bill use to be between $600-700 a quarter.Panel rating: 5/5

A Great Solar Experience
The sales and quotation process was excellent. I contacted Macdonald Air & Electrical after they had completed installation of an air conditioner for me as I was very happy with the workmanship and price. Alex came to my property, accessed the roof and meterbox to give a thorough assessment and gave me a detailed quote which was agreed and installation date arranged.Installation went very smoothly, He arrived at the arranged time, the installation went as advised taking a full day to complete. I had a 6.6 Kw system installed on two roof surfaces. The work was completed and the site was left clean and tidy- taking their waste with them. The workmen were very curtiuos and polite.
The customer service in terms of assistance to connect to the grid was very good too. Alex had advised that Energex would need to upgrade the current meter to a smart meter and arranged the paperwork with the authority. Energex attended the site and had no issues with his work, the meter was installed and I've enjoyed the benifits of solar panel installation

Awesome equipment and installed perfectly !!!
I have only had my Solar recently installed, I was given a very detailed quote with plenty of options to suit my budget and specific needs. The process was easy and the communication was brilliant. The tradesman were prompt and very clean the cleared up all mess after the job and the system works exactly to my expectations. If your looking for Solar I recommend you speak to Alex from Macdonald Air and Electrical he will make it easy and give lots of options and you will be very happy with the quality of the product and the install, it's 5 stars from me as I am extremely happy. They even sorted out my appliances coming on at the optimum time of the day via timers so I maximize the in-coming power, my first bill come in at $90 this time last year my bill was over a $1000 so now it's paying for itself.Panel rating: 5/5
