Questions most customers ask — answered

How long do batteries last?

Battery life depends on chemistry and usage — typical lithium batteries last 5–10 years with proper maintenance. We outline replacement planning during your quote.

Will my fridge stay on?

Yes — we prioritise critical loads. Example runtimes provided in quotes; larger batteries give longer runtime for refrigeration and tills.

What warranties do you offer?

Panel warranties are manufacturer-provided (10–25 years), inverters 5–10 years, batteries vary — we include warranty details in your quote and offer local aftercare.

Do you offer financing?

We offer phased installations and partner financing options where available. Ask us during assessment for tailored payment plans.

What affects price?

  • System size — kW of panels and battery capacity.
  • Battery chemistry — lead vs lithium options affect cost & life.
  • Panel quality — higher-efficiency panels cost more but save space.
  • Mounting complexity — roof type, angle, and height influence labor.
  • Cable runs & site access — longer runs and difficult access add to cost.
  • Permits & electrical work — local approvals and upgrades if needed.
