The Solar Renewable Energy Corp Solar Reviews
We got 8 panels and a 3kW system. for under $2300. Tom advised me to only purchase a minimum number of panels, and a bigger inverter as panel prices were going down and we could get more panels later.
Obviously talking on the phone one does not know if the service etc. is real. I emailed Finn and asked him about Solarrec. Finn emailed instantly and gave me positive feedback on Solarrec. I also forwarded a quote to a local Solar Company, who confirmed the prices were good.
I am very grateful to Finn, thank you. We could not have done it without you. Show additional information
Chose Solarrec on price and which included German PV Panels. Panel installation was completed within one week of agreeing on the price and then hook up to the grid took another two weeks.
Highly satisfied with the service and feedback from Tom O'Donnel and quickness of installation. Show additional information
At the same time I was ordering a fireplace, and similarly i had to do a lot of chasing of the tradesman involved in installation to get a quote.
It seems that there is a lot of work around, a limited number of skilled tradesman and the companies are having difficulty coping with the workload.
The system seems OK to me and working as indicated. Difficult for me to assess the technical capabilities of system. Show additional information
1. They switched panels on me at the last minute. Basically sold sytem A and when it came to install declared that they had only panels from manufacturer B available. I had no choice but to accept otherwise I would have to wait for a long unknown amout of time before I could get the system initially offered. Of course the new panels were slightly less efficient and from a less known manufacturer than the ones in the initial offer.
2. I am still waiting for the meter/grid connection. While they promised to organise this for me within 2-3 weeks, it did not happen and I am left to deal with the guys that do the meter connections. That is now after over 4 weeks after the installation.
3. Solarrec paperwork is totally inscutable. I am still not sure that they actually lodged all the correct paperwork (I assume so) and it is impossible to get a straight anwer here. This is even more vexing because NSW reduced the feed-in tariff to 20c/kWh in November and I'd really like to be sure that they lodged everything before the deadline expired. The system certainly was installed before the new feed-in law came into effect. Show additional information
Tom showed his knowledge and expertise by explaining the ins and outs of the various systems in laymans terms as well as giving me the best price.
Unfortunately all quotes received from other suppliers fell well short in all areas.
Thanks once again for recommending solar rec . Show additional information
Tell you that you will get paper work then forget to send it.
Should have been fitted at begining of March but actually waited into April when fitted. Show additional information
After a few broken promises it was installed at a much reduced cost.
Overall everything seems to working fine and we are just waiting for our 1st bill.
I would definitely recommend Solarrec. Show additional information
When the customer service & connection to the grid is improved i would only be to pleased to recommend this company to others . Show additional information
