Yes, you can and most people do. Depending on your requirements, a system may be $5000 or $15,000, but you have the choice to purchase up front if you have the capital.
The components in our systems come with long warranties (12 years). We also guarantee our workmanship for 10 years. However, it's not unusual that a system will last 20-25 years with very few problems.
If you are buying outright, you can expect to have returned your investment within 3-5 years. If you will get finance, loan terms vary with each provider and financial product so you need to consult with the lender. However, typically these are around 3-6 years to repay.
We only install the best quality components. Check our products page to see which we recommend.
All of our brands have a smooth customer service process and carry out repairs within Australia.
Shoalhaven Solar prides itself on our aftercare and customer service so we will, of course, take care of any liaising with manufacturers.
