FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Read the information below to find out answers to our most commonly asked questions.

Hamilton’s climate makes it suitable for solar power. However, you’ll need to consider your energy needs and roof orientation to determine if solar is suitable for your property. We recommend consulting with our experts in the region for a professional opinion.

Solar panels are well known for their year-round effectiveness. So, yes, solar panels still work and are effective during winter. They absorb energy from the sun’s light rather than the sun’s heat. Even in the autumn and winter months, when there is little wind, only reduced sunlight hours will impact the solar panels’ performance.

Yes, solar panels can be a worthwhile investment due to ongoing energy savings that offset initial installation costs. Beyond energy savings, benefits include low maintenance, increased efficiency, and the opportunity to contribute to a greener environment in the Waikato region.

We have a dedicated install team and warehouse in Hamilton who get the best industry training. The team will evaluate your site and establish a solar solution tailored to your property, prioritising your safety throughout the process.
