Report
After several quotes from various solar companies, we decided on Hunter Solar Solutions to install solar at our home. They were not the cheapest but were by far the most knowledgeable and helpful through the entire process. From start to finish, the job was managed professionally and on time with no hiccups along the way. We would certainly recommend them to anyone thinking of installing solar.

The team at Hunter Solar Solutions have always been very knowledgeable, and the install team get in and get the job done fast. My 5Kw Enphase micro invertor system was up and running within about 3 hours. Their professionalism led me to engage in them to supply and install a Tesla Powerwall this week, and after first days charge I was able to utilise the battery power to run my homes power right through the night. The next day before lunch the battery was fully charged once again ready for the next nights use. I would definitely recommend the team at Hunter Solar Solutions along with the Enphase

Report
My installation was not a straight forward job. Hunter Solar Solutions came to the site a number of times to discuss possible solutions. This was much appreciated and, they were the only company willing to inspect the site. HSS originally put in 11 panels and I recently added another 3 panels. The company were extremely helpful, professional and best of all, on time. Highly recommended and many thanks HSS.

What can i say about HSS other than starting from Wayne's initial visit where he thoroughly explained the solar system, my requirements and ran me through the entire process and benefits of Solar. Wayne was very friendly, informative and didn't try and sell me a system that was larger than my needs. I ended up ordering a 6.24kw Enphase system which installed a couple of weeks later. Josh and his team turned up, who were very professional and knowledgeable, Installed the system and kept me in the loop the entire time they were on site. Zero mess left and i couldn't be happier with the installation
