Solar Chief

A solar company you can trust – Always a pleasure dealing with Neal from Solar Chief. I have used Solar Chief to install Solar panel & battery systems on my family and friends home and would highly recommend them to you.

Once you pay you cannot get anyone to call you back. Terrible service. Would not recommend them. They overcharged me and I can’t do anything about it except contact my bank. Installation not finished either. I have called 4 times and still cannot… Read more

Great experience with Solar Chief. Sam was very helpful throughout the entire process, from the initial consultation through to the installation. He was responsive, professional, and took the time to answer my questions and explain everything clearly. The whole process went smoothly, and I'm very happy with the service. Thanks, Sam and the Solar Chief team!

Martin and his team has done a tremendous job. Very professional and extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you very much for helping me out to get a 42k battery pack for a very reasonable price.

Good service Neal kept me well informed And the installer done a great job. I had a difficult job with standing seam colorblind finish so I didn't want to see electrical in front of the walls, the installer ran Wires inside of the roof so not visible. I would recommend solar chief for my batter install

Terrible after-sales support for a premium system. Avoid. ​ I was referred to Solar Chief by a close friend who had a good experience, and I will admit that the initial sales process went well. They were very keen to win my business when my system was installed in September 2025. However, their post-installation customer care has been… Read more

non-existent.

​I have a large single-phase solar and battery setup. Now that we are trying to use the system's automation and manual features, there is a major conflict in the setup. If the battery tries to fast-charge from the grid while normal household appliances (like the dishwasher or dryer) are running, it overloads our main switchboard and completely trips the power getting us off the grid.

​I raised this issue with Solar Chief back in February 2026. It has been open for four months now, and despite numerous follow-ups, they have been completely unresponsive. They have not even sent a qualified electrician to physically inspect my property or attempt a proper hardware fix. Instead, a quick software "fix" they attempted remotely has created a permanent energy leak, forcing my system to constantly drain power from the grid even when my battery is completely full. This is actively costing me money and voiding my electricity plan's daily discounts, so I have asked them to disable it.

​It is incredibly frustrating to spend top dollar on a premium system only to be completely abandoned the moment something goes wrong. Buying solar is a long-term investment, and you need a company that actually stands by their work. Solar Chief does not

As a warning I would not use Solar Chief as a contactor to install a Solar System. I had to wait 3 months to have my system installed which was the time limit in the contact to cancel. I had held 10% retention to ensure the system was operated… Read more

correctly. I did not think the 10-year workmanship warranty would need a retention to get action on poor & none compliance issues. I have sent numerous emails with no action. Made phone calls with promises but not action. I have logged a compliant with The New Energy Tech Consumer Code who also have not been able to get Solar Chief to respond. With that none response I have now logged a complaint with the Building Commission NSW.

I should have trusted my instincts when the sales agent kept bugging me to sign a sales contract. I eventually signed one in early December 2025, and paid the $1,000 deposit. I thought it was strange that a technician wasn't sent to my house (being built) to review the work. At the time the sales agent committed that the installation would occur… Read more

by mid February, which was a hard deadline as I needed the solar panels installed for the Occupancy Certfiicate (OC) of my home development.

After no contact in three months, I called them in early to mid February 2026 asking when installation would occur. I got put onto the installation scheduler who said he would send a technician to review the job but "when one was available in the area". I had asked that my builder be on site, but I couldn’t get a commitment for a time and date until one night a got a message at 5pm that they would be on site the next day at 11a, (they turned up at 10am).

There was some communication breakdown as to the requirements of the solar and battery installation, but I basically outlined that I didn't want a conduit running up the front of my new house, and it would need to be at the back or side. They called back in the second week of March 2026 saying they couldn't do the job, and to take my deposit back. This is days before I was told installation would occur, and approximately two weeks prior to my OC being signed off - which couldn't occur without the solar installed.

The initial sales agent revealed to me that my job "will take a couple of days", and in that time "they could install two to three batteries per day". I then realised that the battery rebate was reducing by the end of April and these dodgy installers were randomly cancelling jobs to focus on those which deliver them the most profit. It had nothing to do with my job being too difficult, as was claimed at one point.

These guys don't install their own work, and are just a retail front. They don't respect their own contract that they pushed to have me sign, and are happy to burn customers to make a quick buck on government rebates. I am in a pickle as I can't get my OC and we plan on moving into the house in the next two weeks.

I had a fantastic experience with Martin for our FoxESS battery installation. From day one, he was so helpful - he gave me the best deal possible and explained everything with full transparency, no hidden costs.

Great service. Installation went really well. Even tidied up after themselves, couldn’t have asked for more. Did a great job. Martin their sales guy was also very helpful, communication excellent and advice also great. Thanks again!

Solar Chief removed the old panels from our roof and installed 18 new panels. They provided an excellent quote and were able to carry out the job soon after we placed the order with them.

It is certainly worth contacting Neal on 0489901977 for a quote.
