We offers a limited installation services warranty for any defects in the work carried out by its qualified installers when installing a solar system at a residential or business premises (“workmanship warranty”).
Who receives the benefit of this workmanship warranty?
This warranty applies to the residential customer named in the solar system installation agreement entered into with us from February 2019. Where the installation premise has been transferred, we will transfer this workmanship warranty to the new owner of the premise for the balance of the warranty period on the same terms.
Scope of this workmanship warranty
The workmanship warranty covers any defects that arise from the workmanship in installing your solar panels and solar inverter at the premises specified in the solar system installation Agreement.
It does not cover the system or any of its components, including the performance of the panels or the inverter (which may be covered by separate manufacturer warranties and under law).
For all work except the installation of a switchboard, the workmanship warranty period is 5 years from the date of completion of the installation.
For work related to the installation of a switchboard, the workmanship warranty period is 1 year from the date of the installation of the switchboard.
Where the workmanship warranty applies,
we will either (at its discretion and cost):
re-do or repair the installation; or
replace any faulty part with a comparable new or refurbished part so that the installation is no longer defective.
Limitations and Exclusions of the workmanship warranty:
To the extent permitted by law, claims are excluded from the workmanship warranty where the defect or loss is or has been caused or contributed by:
improper use of the solar system;
failure to comply with manufacturer instructions;
work on the system (including modifying, moving or relocating any part of the system, even if temporary) performed by someone other than us or our installer;
you have not adhered to maintenance requirements set out in the installer Welcome Pack provided to you by our installer on the day of installation;
Any act, omission, misuse, abuse, or damage (whether wilful, accidental or negligent) caused by the customer or a third party;
Any extreme weather not for the location in which the system was installed (eg lightening, floods, power surges, pest damage, corrosion, land or building movement);
Interference from other devices;
General wear and tear;
Events outside of design range caused by the distributor or network operator;
a failure to promptly notify solar plant of any defects.
You need to regularly check your system is working properly; or

You must provide all reasonable assistance to us to help us diagnose and remedy any defects over the phone. If you do not do so, costs to attend your premise may not be covered by this workmanship warranty.
