Question 1

How do I know what solar system size is right for my home?

Accepted Answer

We review your electricity usage, roof space and orientation, budget and future plans such as a battery or EV. Solvitec Solar then recommends a system sized for your Tasmanian home and explains the expected production in plain English.

Question 2

Can I add a solar battery later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A solar system can be designed with future battery storage in mind. A hybrid inverter may make adding a compatible battery easier later, and we can explain the options before installation.

Question 3

Does solar work well in Tasmania?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Solar panels still generate electricity in Tasmania’s cooler and cloudier conditions. The best result depends on your roof, shading, orientation and system design, which we assess during the consultation.

Question 4

How long does a residential solar installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most straightforward residential installations are completed in a day once approvals, products and scheduling are in place. Larger or more complex systems may take longer, and we will explain the expected timeline before work begins.

Question 5

What happens during a solar consultation?

Accepted Answer

We discuss your energy use, roof, budget and goals, then explain suitable system options, estimated production and the quote. Our aim is to give you clear local advice without pressure.

Question 6

What warranties and support do you provide?

Accepted Answer

Your system includes the applicable manufacturer warranties for the selected panels, inverter and battery. We also provide installation documentation and ongoing local support, with the exact warranty terms explained in your proposal.
