FAQs
What solar services do you offer in Newcomb?
Our trusted partner electrical team provides a full turnkey service for Newcomb homeowners and businesses, including site inspection, system design, supply of Tier-1 panels and high-efficiency inverters, installation by CEC-accredited electricians, grid-connection paperwork, monitoring setup and ongoing maintenance.
How long does a typical residential solar installation take?
Once your quote is approved, we lodge the paperwork with your energy retailer and schedule the installation. Most 6.6 kW residential systems are installed and commissioned in a single day, with total lead time—from approval to switch-on—averaging 2–4 weeks, depending on stock availability and distributor approvals.
What warranties and after-sales support are included?
All panels come with a 25-year performance warranty and 12-year product warranty, while inverters carry 10-year coverage. Our workmanship is guaranteed for 5 years. You’ll also receive free system health checks in the first 12 months, remote performance monitoring and priority on-site support if any issue arises.
Will my solar panels work during a power outage?
Standard grid-connected solar systems shut down automatically during an outage for safety reasons. If you want backup power, we can integrate a hybrid inverter and battery, or retrofit a battery later. This allows selected circuits—such as lights, fridge and internet—to continue running even when the grid is down.
How much can I save on my electricity bills?
Savings depend on roof orientation, system size and consumption habits. A well-sized 6.6 kW system in Newcomb typically produces 24–26 kWh per day, offsetting up to 70 % of an average household’s usage and cutting annual bills by $1,200–$1,800. With current feed-in tariffs, most customers achieve a 3–5 year payback period.
Are there rebates or incentives available for Newcomb residents?
Yes. The Federal STC rebate reduces the upfront cost by roughly $350 per kW installed. In Victoria, eligible homeowners can also apply for the Solar Victoria rebate (up to $1,400) and an interest-free loan of the same amount. We handle all paperwork so you receive the incentives at the point of sale.
