Hi Keith,

Thank you for your feedback and for letting us know about the installation experience. I’m sorry to hear the panels couldn’t be placed in the originally planned location — I understand that must have been disappointing.

Our installation team always aims to find the safest and most effective placement possible, but I appreciate that the alternative site may not be ideal.

Power smart solar and battery

I organised a consultation with multiple companies, power smart were very helpful at explaining what was needed for what I wanted to achieve. Instal was easy and they consulted with me before doing anything and if they saw a better way of doing things they discussed it and let me make the final call. Since getting up and running I haven’t used anything from the grid, which is what I was aiming for. System is doing exactly what they said it would.

From the start I did not have to chase people up if I asked a question it was answered that day.
Lots of information and time spent explaining what how and why.
Installers where professional understanding and informative.
The product is working so well and everything is as it should be.
Could not ask for better service.
Thank you.

Hi Elaine,

Thank you for your feedback and for your positive rating — we really appreciate it!

Our install team always runs through the key operating and safety features of your solar and battery system. The good news is that the usage is very automated — the battery automatically stores your excess solar power and supplies it when your panels aren’t producing, such as at night or on cloudy days.

If you’d like a more detailed walkthrough or some tips on how to get the most out of your system, we’d be more than happy to arrange a follow-up call.

Install was great

Install was great. Quick and really good workmanship. Just a bit disappointed with not completing the APP monitoring setup… still to this day hasn’t been set up Correctly. We received a print out how to set up the App. But TBH it should have been done at installation.
