Tindo Solar Solar Reviews
Tindo solar-great SA solar company
I contacted Tindo Solar for a quote. Their representative was helpful and prompt in getting details on the install. They organised everything. The installer turned up when they said they would and went about the installation that was completed same day with no issues. The system works well and generates plenty of power. They're certainly not the cheapest out there but they're SA made and I'm happy to pay a bit extra for that, rather than deal with overseas call centres and unknown installers.

Everything was smooth and without issue. The system was installed and running in one day. Sales rep didn't try to oversell us as some others did and listened to what we wanted whilst giving advice. Show additional informationKnowlegable Customer Rep. and Installer
We had a wonderful experience with Tindo Solar from start to finish. Our sales/Customer Service Rep Jamie was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything to us in a way we understood everything. Jamie has a personalized and genuine level of customer experience and we truly appreciated his time and effort. We are extremely happy with the system, not only our Panels Australian Made right here is SA, they are delivering on our expectations. We received our first bill after our new system was installed a few months back and we have a HUGE credit on our bill which we have never experienced before. We use to receive $1200 a quarter bills so to be in credit now is an unbelievable feeling and a true investment. Ivan who installed our system was so helpful, knowledgeable and professional. We highly recommend having a Tindo Solar system installed, you wont look back! Grateful to the whole team at Tindo. Thank you! Show additional informationExcellent Local Manufacturer of Great Product
The product was well explained by the company salesman. Its pricing was reasonable and the quality is excellent. The installation was done professionally and its performance since has been as promised. I highly recommend this company and product, especially as locally manufactured in Adelaide.

Quality
I found Tindo helpful and professional from beginning to the end. Everything was handled on-time and without fuss. Show additional informationTindo Solar System with battery
The quoting process was fabulous. Salesperson proposed and explained the system in detail. Was absolutely pleased with the proposed system though not cheap. Wished the Solaredge inverter proposed and installed was a HD series one instead of the older SE series. Installation went well but they left a cut wire sticking out on the roof and caused a leak when rain came. Called customer service about it and problem was quickly attended to, though there is a water mark on the roof.Happy system is live now, and generating energy and saving me money. Customer service is OK (great if issue is urgent, like the roof leakage) but can be better, in particular, addressing questions that were put to them. Frustrated of not answering my questions, I decided to Google for answers and found them. Hopefully, service will be better in the future. Show additional information
Great local installer,for S.A. The whose company based close to home was very handy!
Happy with the whole process overall. Good explanation on the system & how it all operates for my particular home. All shown to me on computer,( which I wouldn't otherwise understand! Show additional informationTop quality installation from the quote to completion of the installation
System quote and installation was done very quickly - 18 days from quote to job completion. Everyone we dealt with fromTindo were professional and helpful from the very knowlegeable sales person through to the admin staff. We also received regular updates during the 18 day wait period.The installation crew were punctual, courteous and efficient, and also left their work area clean and tidy. Because we already had a smart meter the system was connected to the grid at the time of installation. The information we received regarding how well we could expect the system to work on cloudy days was correct - in fact it works even better than expected. Show additional information
Great job done by a great company
Very friendly, clear and easy to get your head around what we where purchasing.Clean, tidy, very polite.
Grid connection was done on the day of install. All sorted out by Tindo. Constantly kept in the loop. Show additional information
Top system for a difficult situation
Due to issues with shading I went for a top quality system that would degrade as little as possible over time. Tindo were honest with their data from the Desert Knowledge Centre so although I paid a bit more I'm satisfied that I will have a reliable system for many years to come. Show additional informationFrom start to finish the experience was great. I went with tindo as there the only panels made in Australia for Australian conditions. A bit more expensive but we'll worth the money.
Installation was a breeze the guys, very friendly and were on time and didn't leave any rubbish laying around. Matthew the sales person I spoke to couldn't have been more helpful. All in all its a 20 out of 10 for Tindo solar a very peasant experience. Show additional informationLocal product, excellent service and three weeks from quote to installarion
Quote was done at home well within a week of first contact, information was immediate and recommendations have proven to be precisely as stated.Installer came prior to the scheduled date to ensure existing wiring was appropriate to the system.The installation was completed as scheduled and the site was clean and tidy when the job was complete.
Following installation I had to wait three weeks for the energy retailer to install a smart meter (I had been told of this at the time of quote) and following this found that the solar monitoring software was showing error messages. Tindo arranged rectification within 2 working days and made follow up calls to ensure that the system was reporting correctly Show additional information
Installers were excellent, there was a hiccup with the billing process which almost made us cancel
Installation excellent, customer service from Tondo not real good. After a hiccup with the pricing,due to computer hitch,no after sales backup or is all ok now? Show additional informationTindo solar for my house.
My system was installed within 3 weeks, including the monitoring app. Show additional informationresearching Tindo and others
Tindo quoting process very helpful. Information about the product was comprehensive. Can see on-line how they are made or visit the factory. No problems with installation. Attended when they said they would. Everything went smoothly. They requested full payment before it was up and running which I didn't agree with so I told them I was holding a small % back till it was up and running and they were okay with that. Excellent easy to understand Solar Analytics who are also very helpful if you have questions. Researching Solar Quotes was extremely helpful in the lead up to my decision making. Show additional informationQuality is worth the additional investment
As a retired Engineer I undertook a lot of investigative reading before hand to ensure that I could ask the correct questions and assess the value of the PV panels on offer. I had decided that my selection would be based upon monocrystalline PV cells with Micro Inverters that would permit future expansion of the system and the latter inclusion of storage batteries when they became more cost effective and would permit auto change over to storage should mains supply fail. I then reviewed the quality of panels and roof supporting attachments as a unique system with regards to structural strength, longevity of components, warranty and service levels. From this I identified a limited number of preferred suppliers and used the opportunity to then observe systems being installed so I could directly compare quality and installation of systems. My final selection reduced to two possibilities who were very close but once I adjusted for supporting local / Australian manufacture Tindo was selected. The installation was of the highest quality and they even had the patience to put up with me hovering around them asking questions and closely observing what they were doing, even the wife was impressed with their professionalism and work ethic. The system has now been working for some 6 months with an excellent online monitoring from MyEnlighten the Enphase micro inverter manufacture. Each panel is identified for output and download into a spreadsheet. A clear day produces 82% overall efficiency which the expected result. I am very pleased with the total process which will pay for itself within the next 3 years. Show additional informationGreat Polite and Tidy Installer
During the Quote process everything was explained clearly. Taken a tour through the factory where the panels are made and assembled very informative tour. This took place before signing contract. A few extras which I knew nothing about were explained and I agreed to adding to quote. Price is higher than those seen on TV but I'm glad I paid the extra and got my panels from Tindo. Australian made and local company, After Sale service is faultless they monitor panel performance and contact you if panel performance drops. Tindo keep in contact with purchasers. To be honest the best $$$$ i have spent. When you buy Tindo panels you also get great caring after sales service. IF you want a Top Quality Product go to Tindo. When fitted workers were very polite, answered any questions, very tidy looking installation, and all packaging was removed. Installed all 18 panels by lunch time.

Tindo did not try to over sell their product. They gave me the facts and tried to be as competitive as possible with their price, and managed to come within a few hundred of the cheaper competitors, but with better warranty and quality. I have had my panels since January 2019 and love my panels, I have had great service from Tindo in the time I have had them. Show additional informationThank you. Show additional information

Very happy with the 5kw premium system with lifetime solar analytics subscription. There were cheaper systems but I am very confident in Tindo's quality. Also I found your website very useful to cut through the minefield of information so thanks Finn and thanks Vince and the Tindo team. Show additional information
