SolarGreen

I don't think that there could have been a more professional, neat and efficient job performed. From the initial quotation, the organisation of the job and the instillation and finalisation - the entire process was seamless and the outcome was fantastic. Thanks to Rob and the team for their excellent work. Show reply

For a second time, we have selected SolarGreen to supply and install a solar system for us; this time to a new property and with a battery. We chose SolarGreen because of our satisfaction with the advice and service Robert gave us last time, and we are very happy with the decision to go with him again - his advice on what system to go with was… Read more ·  1

honest and reassuring: and the installation by Aaron and his team was without doubt one of the best and most preofessional interactions I have ever had with a team of tradesmen. The best endorsement is that from the moment the system was turned on we have been completely independent of the grid.

Had solar hot water installed 1/7/25 by this company, they were so professional, great work would highly recommend. Show details ·  1

I had an Edwards 300 l rooftop solar hotwater system that regrettably failed due to an unrepairable leak from a rusted edge of the tank where it had been factory welded (stainless steel isnt supposed to do this in a short time), after a short 11 years. Two independent solar specialist confirmed after inspection that it could not be repaired nor… Read more ·  5

the tank replaced at an affordable cost. After researching I discovered the following:

Standard Stainless Steel (usually 304 grade): Contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel. Provides good corrosion resistance and strength for general indoor or mild outdoor environments. This is used in all other solar tanks with the exception of Germantech.

Germantech uses the following: Marine Grade Stainless Steel (usually 316 grade): Contains 16–18% chromium, 10–14% nickel, and crucially 2–3% molybdenum. The molybdenum dramatically improves resistance to chloride corrosion — i.e., rust and pitting caused by salt, minerals, and chemicals in water. This was the major consideration in choosing a Germantech 300 l solar hotwater system. What convinced me is the marine grade stainless steel which is far more resistant to corrosion than other brands that use stainless steel, and living near the ocean means marine grade has far higher resistance to rust than the standard 304 grade used by other manufacturers. The panel is also of the highest grade which means it can capture sunlight at its minimum and still heat the water.

Robert at Evergreen was very helpful, and the installers were professional and courteous. It has been 2 months since installation and I'm impressed by the solar capturing ability during overcast days, making hotwater available without boosting.

Excellent service! – I am thoroughly impressed with the exceptional service I received from SolarGreen, from the initial consultation to the installation of two heat pumps at my property. Robert and the team exceeded my expectations in every way! From the moment I contacted Robert, I was struck by his expertise, professionalism, and genuine desire to help. He took… Read more

the time to understand my family's specific needs and provided personalized advice that was tailored to our unique situation. His recommendations were spot on, and I appreciated his honesty and transparency throughout the process.

The installation team was equally impressive, efficient, and courteous. They worked seamlessly to complete the job, ensuring minimal disruption to our daily routine.

I highly recommend SolarGreen to anyone considering heat pump installation. Their dedication to customer satisfaction, combined with their top-notch products and expert installation, makes them the go-to choice. Thank you, Robert and Solar Green, for a fantastic experience!

Totally Impressed – Installed in less than 2 weeks, we are very very happy with the way it performs and looks on our roof. One of their guys Mason took the time to patiently explain every aspect of solar and answer all of our questions, and trust me we had a lot. They were patient and there was no hard sell or harassing phone calls that we got from some other well… Read more

known solar companies. The whole process was effortless and we can't recommend them highly enough. The real deciding factor for us was the honest advice we received. I had been researching solar for months and pretty much knew exactly what we needed. Our roof is partially shaded at some times during the day some times during the year and while some of the other companies were just trying to flog us a bog standard 6.6kW system and told us they wold work fine, which I already knew they wouldn't. Mason on the other hand refused to sell us a standard system, telling me they would take my money just to install a white elephant system on my roof. Instead they offered us both Optimised and Micro Inverter options. We went with the Solar Edge system with 365w smart modules. It works great and the App is amazing. The installers showed up at exactly 7:30am as promised, were polite and well behaved and were generally very professional and un-tradie like. They did the job, cleaned up all of their mess and took the time to make sure we understood how everything works. Totally impressed and happy that there are still Aussie companies out there offering such honest advice and top notch service.

The work was carried out with care nd consideration in a professional manner and the team cleaned up after themselves! Show details ·  1

**PLEASE TAKE INTO ACCOUNT WHEN READING OUR REVIEW THAT SOLARGREEN GIVE FEEDBACK TO ALL REVIEWS HERE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF OURS; THIS CONTINUING TO IGNORE OUR CONCERNS. DO YOU WANT TO RISK THIS WITH YOUR INSTALL? WILL THEY BE THERE FOR YOU OR WILL YOU SIMPLY BE AN INCONVENIENCE?**

Factually, the Seraphim Solar Panel array and Sungrow Inverter along with the Germantech Solar Hot water system we had installed by SolarGreen to replace previously failed systems have worked to task as expected coming up to the first full year since installation. Absolutely no problem or dispute about this. Where this all goes wrong is the service that SolarGreen is offering, and, despite their perceived "value" of having over fifteen years of experience, it all counts for nought. Let me explain, keeping it to the main points. Bear in mind, the service provided by SolarGreen is what is being reviewed here.

My Wife put out requests for quotes in April 2023 for a replacement of existing antiquated equipment that failed and was installed under the Queensland Government High Feed-in Tariff back in 2013. This equipment was allowed to be replaced under the legislation created at that time provided that it doesn't exceed the previous outputs of the unit to be replaced nor the limits of capacity placed at the time of installation in 2013 to be able to retain the Feed-In Tariff. As such, the "request" was stylised to include these imperative requirements. We were met with many responses and my wife spent some time vetting them before ultimately deciding to go with SolarGreen. Let me put it out there that SolarGreen were not the dearest quote by a longshot, but were nowhere near the cheapest either. My Wife found that the communications from SolarGreen through their General Manager, [Name Removed], were second to none and there was no condescension that was prevalent from the many other companies that tendered towards woman.

[Name Removed], General Manager of SolarGreen, put to us a quote along with written and verbal confirmation that we would retain our generous Feed-In Tariff and be provided with many years of trouble-free powering of our home. We made him aware, that we were not willing to go ahead with the installation if we were to lose our Feed-In Tarrif (FIT) as it would be cost prohibitive. [Name Removed] alluded to SolarGreen’s fifteen years in business and that HE had done this many times previously without issue.

Installation took place on the 23rd June 2023. There was Two different teams; one for the Hot Water System and one for the Panels/ Inverter. Installation went relatively well with a few issues ironed out over the following fortnight.

Fast-forward to November 1st 2023 and we were advised by Energex that our original FIT had been cancelled. When calls and emails to the Ombudsmen laid out that it was due to our latest installation exceeding original capacities, we were left with an investment that will never pay for itself.

In short, be prepared if you are dealing with SolarGreen. The initial contact, couldn’t fault. The Installation; a few hiccups, but again, I can live with the few niggles. It was the solemn oath that we wouldn’t lose our FIT that had put us out of pocket to the tune of around $7000 with no chance on return on investment. Throughout all this, SolarGreen, through their General Manager, [Name Removed], initially was helpful before ultimately, ghosting us. Left with little choice, we approached Queensland Fair Trade who were having initial success in dialogue, but has since come to a stonewall as well. In short, SolarGreen, through their General Manager, [Name Removed], are quick to blame anyone, be it QLD Government or Energex as opposed to admitting they simply lied to obtain business.

Ask yourself before committing to this installer; can you afford such an outlay based on SolarGreen’s “goodwill” and “knowledge” which evaporates quicker than the Brisbane Fog on a sunny day when something goes wrong? If I can save one Product Review site visitor from what we went through and are about to go through, then penning this review would have been worthwhile.

Avoid this company at all costs – We went with this company as a recommendation all we have had is a horrible experience they make excuses after excuses they are unprofessional and have no idea what they are doing be prepared for them to leave all There rubbish nuts and bolts in your bins be prepared for error codes from the inverter and just be prepared for attitude and harassing calls to leave reviews.  Show details

I can’t say enough good things about SolarGreen!

The installation was seamless, and their team was professional and courteous throughout. Highly recommend them for their excellent service and great value! Show details ·  1

A very positive experience! – I had my solar hot water system installed by Solar Green yesterday, and the experience was fantastic.

Solar Hot Water Install – Had a great experience from start to finish. The products available are good value for money. Both Robert and the install team are very responsive and take the time to answer any questions you may have. The roof mounted solar hot water system we had installed has taken 60% off of our electricity consumption (running on 100% solar even on rainy, cloudy, and cold days). Show details ·  1
