FAQ

Ausgen Solar provides comprehensive solar energy solutions for both residential and commercial customers. Our offerings include solar panel installation, battery storage systems, solar panel cleaning services, and ongoing maintenance and repair. We specialize in providing tailored solar systems designed for efficiency and long-term performance.

Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity, allowing you to generate your own clean, renewable energy. By using solar energy to power your home or business, you can significantly reduce your reliance on grid electricity, lowering your monthly energy costs. Any excess energy produced can be stored in batteries or fed back into the grid for credit, further increasing savings.

Battery storage systems allow you to store excess solar energy generated during the day for use at night or when the sun isn’t shining. This increases the self-consumption of your solar power, reduces your reliance on the grid, and helps you maximize your energy savings. Ausgen Solar offers high-quality battery solutions tailored to both residential and commercial needs, ensuring efficient energy use and security.

The installation time can vary depending on the size and complexity of the system. Typically, a residential solar system installation takes between one to two days. For larger commercial systems, installation may take several days or even weeks, depending on the scale. Our team ensures minimal disruption during the process, and we work efficiently to complete installations as quickly as possible.

Yes! Solar panels are a long-term investment that can significantly reduce your energy bills and increase the value of your property. With the right system design, you can expect a return on investment (ROI) within a few years. Additionally, with government incentives, rebates, and tax credits available in some regions, the upfront cost can be reduced, making solar a financially attractive option.

Solar panels are low-maintenance, but regular cleaning and periodic checks are essential to ensure optimal performance. Ausgen Solar offers professional cleaning services to remove dirt, dust, and debris that may reduce efficiency. We also provide ongoing maintenance services to monitor system performance, identify potential issues, and ensure that your solar panels and battery storage systems continue to function efficiently over time.

Yes, we provide warranties on both solar panels and battery storage systems. Our solar panels come with manufacturer warranties, typically lasting between 10 to 25 years, depending on the brand and type of panel. Battery storage solutions also come with warranties, typically ranging from 5 to 10 years. Additionally, our installation services are backed by our own warranty for peace of mind.

Yes, you can still benefit from solar energy without a battery system. In this case, your solar system will supply energy to your home or business when the sun is shining. Any excess power will be sent back to the grid, and you may receive credits from your energy provider depending on your state’s feed-in tariff regulations. However, a battery storage system allows you to store energy for use at night or during cloudy days, maximizing your savings.

Solar panels are built to last for decades, with most high-quality panels having a lifespan of 25 to 30 years or more. Over time, they may experience a slight decrease in efficiency, but with proper care and maintenance, your panels can continue to provide reliable energy for many years. We provide long-term warranties on the panels and the installation to ensure peace of mind throughout their lifespan.

In most cases, standard grid-connected solar systems will not operate during a power outage unless they are paired with a battery storage system or a backup inverter. However, by adding a battery storage solution, your system can store energy to be used during an outage, ensuring continued power supply. At Ausgen Solar, we offer battery storage solutions to enhance your energy independence and ensure reliability even during emergencies.

Whether you’re looking for a payment plan or want to explore loan options, our team can guide you through the financing process. We work with trusted financial partners to provide various solutions, so you can find the best option that suits your budget.

The amount of energy you can generate with solar panels depends on several factors, including the size of the system, your location, roof orientation, and the amount of sunlight your property receives. Typically, a standard 5kW solar system can generate around 20 to 25 kWh of energy per day, which can cover a significant portion of your home or business’s energy needs. We can help you determine the right system size for your specific energy requirements through a personalized consultation.

Yes, we offer maintenance services for both new and existing solar systems. Regular maintenance is essential to ensure that your solar panels continue to operate at their highest efficiency. Our services include system inspections, cleaning, and performance monitoring. If you have an existing system that requires repairs or upgrades, our team can also assess and make recommendations to improve its performance.

Our team conducts a thorough assessment of your roof during the consultation process to determine if it’s suitable for solar panel installation. We consider factors such as the roof’s orientation, pitch, size, and shading from trees or nearby buildings. If your roof is not suitable for panels, we may suggest alternatives like ground-mounted systems or recommend adjusting your setup to maximize efficiency.

There are various government incentives, rebates, and tax credits available for both residential and commercial solar installations in Australia. These programs can help reduce the upfront costs of your solar system, making it more affordable. Our team at Ausgen Solar will help you navigate the available rebates and guide you through the process of applying for them, ensuring you get the best possible financial benefit.

Many of our solar systems come with monitoring options that allow you to track the performance of your system in real time via a smartphone app or web portal. This lets you see how much energy your system is generating, how much is being used, and how much is being stored or sent back to the grid. Monitoring is an essential tool for ensuring your system is running optimally and helps identify any issues that may arise.
