Good install average outsourced call centre

Salesman knowledge average.
Nothing wrong with their attitude just understanding what they are saying and long distance connections made it hard.
All grid connections and compliance were fine.
Make sure you read up about regs and specs so you as the customer are informed.
This also helps with explaining to installer where you would like inverter/battery location vs regulations, which dictate certain distances from inverter and battery etc.

Strata install

If you're in a strata embedded network and thinking of installing solar be prepared for a rough ride.

Good installation., but somethings weren’t made aware to me upon paying deposit.

I had old panels to be removed and I presumed it’s part of the quoted price. It was not. So I had to pay for that. The rest was good, but a bit on panel positioning were not spelt out on my thought. But system is great and producing good energy; my bills have dropped off significantly, but no battery, for overnight storage.

Excellent installation by a great installation team

The sales process was efficient, clear and concise. Knowledgeable, able to answer all of my questions. Unfortunately, the installation occurred about 2 months after the original planned date due to some unforeseen circumstances. However, when a new date was locked in, everything went well for the installation. The installation team arrived early, ahead of time, and got to work with no fuss, very punctual. Everything was installed without a hiccup, and cleaned up well, there was no mess at all left behind. Lovely clean neat installation, very professional. This has only just been installed, so this is early days I realize, but so far brilliant.

Original Review on 05-08-2022:

Quality solar system for the best price

The sales/quoting process provided all of the information needed to compare quality, prices and systems.

The installation was completed on the scheduled day and the installers were very punctual, but did leave some bits and pieces of rubbish for me to clean up which was a little disappointing.

The installer gave me a run through of how the system works and advised that I would need to contact my power provider to install an upgrade to my meter box. I was also provided with a manual for the inverter.

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

Yes, it has. Together with the current government assistance for electricity charges, my account is carrying a very healthy credit balance.

Zip Solar are great at selling their product though after sales support is lacking and requires some work. I suggest you purchase elsewhere and check if they are a licensed solar selling retailer as per your states regulations which I wish I knew was a thing before purchasing. Having the system installed by a licensed installer is not good enough, the business needs to have a license also.

The installer(Not a ZIP Solar employee) I had on the day was good and explained everything well though.

Zip Solar.

Sales and quoting was quick, a few phone calls but respected my time to make a decision.

Installation was quick with excellent communication and contact made quickly with part supply issues.

Extra consumption monitor added as recommended from here.

Still early days but looking great so far.

Price came in cheaper with same parts used and had a few referrals from friends.
