I could not be happier with my experience with Sunboost. From start to finish , the service has been fantastic, and I would highly recommend them to anyone considering solar or a home battery system. A special thankyou to Fiona, my Sales Consultant, who was absolutely wonderful to deal with. Fiona was helpful, professional, patient and always… Read more
happy to answer my questions, making the whole process run smoothly. I would also like to give Brian from the Installations team a huge thankyou, his communication with us was second to none. Brian made the Installation process run very smoothly. Last but not least a huge thankyou to the Sunboost Installers for doing such a wonderful job installing our Battery system. The Installations team were friendly, professional, polite and their workmanship was excellent and of a high standard.

I was very happy with the quote then the lead up to installation, I was included with each stage and when the solar battery and an additional 11 solar panels were installed I was given a good briefing on how everything works plus the app on my mobile. Very happy then I rang the electricity provider for information on feed in and out to the grid,… Read more
went on a plan and Sunboost arranged their end so by night I was feeding into the grid as the process was a three way conversation all on day of installation. We had already purchased 43 solar panels 7 years ago with the same company. Extremely happy would not hesitate to recommend this great company, thank you Fiona, Mick and Jasper

Our second system from Sunboost. Always good service. Thanks again! Show reply
Recently we had Sunboost install a new (Fox) Battery to our existing Solar Panels. Overall, the installation was good & tidy however, every installation has some minor difficulties. We did. But the important thing is that I can honesty say that the Sunboost Team (installers, Call Centre etc) were very supportive during this adjustment period,… Read more · 1
ensuring within a couple of days that our system was running 100%. Happy to recommend Sunboost for your future Solar battery needs.
Sunboost and installation of our FoxESS solar and battery was done very professionally and very happy with the finished product! Show reply
Michael kept me informed regularly for the battery installation, being a remote location. Installers arrived on time and the installation was performed efficiently. On start-up there was a software issue which Michael arranged the necessary rectification. A good experience all round. Show reply
Neat and tidy. We were not home but everything is done properly. Show reply

Barry from Sunboost was very helpful in helping install my new 30 kW battery system. Any small issues that I might’ve had, they’ll quickly sort out by Barry and his team giving me full confidence with Sunboost. This is the second unit that SunBoost has installed for me. I’m quite happy with their work, the reliability, and their timelines. Show reply

Sun-boost has completed the installation of the solar battery system and happy with it.
Follow-up · Have been speaking to Sunboost,s very good representative 'Wilson' I have had a blackout back up installed will the installers detailing and explaining what backs up when the outside power goes off - demonstration was very good and provided what was required. Since the installation we have had two blackouts with system not backing up as… Read more
Our ESY battery had issues with the circuit breaker. It wasn't immediately clear if the problem was with the hardware or installation, but Jasper at Sunboost worked together with ESY to provide a solution. It's a pity that the ESY app didn't… Read more
report that the circuit breaker had tripped, otherwise I would have been able to get onto it much more quickly. Initially, I had no idea what was causing the problem. But that's an ESY issue rather than Sunboost.
Follow-up · While it took a fortnight to work out whether the problem was with hardware of the installation (it was intermittent), once diagnosed, it was resolved quickly. The replacement parts completely resolved the issue. Unfortunately, the app still doesn't report tripping of the circuit breaker, to my knowledge.
Rachael from sunboost was fantastic.Always returning calls if needed to solve our problem,and always willing to help whatever was needed.In the end excellent result everything worked out well.
Follow-up · A new inverter was replaced under warranty.The installation process only took 30 minutes,and no follow up was needed.

Positive reviews
I didn’t have to wait long for the installation and the installers were friendly and helpful. The Electrician, who connected my battery took time to show me how to use the monitoring app before he left.
Thanks to the team at Sunboost for exceptional service installation of my panels and 2 batteries mounted. I will definitely use you guys again. Job well done. Thanks again
Good communication, not the cheapest, but competitive pricing. Responsive to queries and requests and replied in good time to finalise my system installation. Had some difficulty with arranging installation in my regional area (installation date postponed twice), but once the installer came, the installation was done very well. They completed a… Read more
full rewire of the switchboard and connected my 2 existing separate solar systems...a neat and clean installation which is working beyond my expectations. Sunboost kept me informed of what was happening and followed up after istallation. They completed all documentation and all that was required to a good standard. I would use Sunboost again.
Negative reviews
Well it finally happened. I had Sunboost clean my solar panels and check all connections for corrosion. They charged over $800 for the job that took a single tech less than 2 hours. The tech was great and did an amazing job but the fees are ridiculous and almost the same amount that I've saved in the past year. Will be looking elsewhere next time.
Satisfied with the work done however a site inspection of the premises before signing up should be mandatory. I was advised that a separate granny flat (gf) would benefit from the solar system however when the installation team came out they advised me that the gf would not be linked to the system due to having its own electrical sub board. I now… Read more
have to get a separate system for the gf with its own inverter. The sales person should have asked the sub board question to validate that what she was telling me was accurate as this would have influenced me on the size of the system I chose. This highlights the need for attention to detail by sales staff and site inspections prior to finalising the quotation.

My system was poorly installed and was disconnected after being considered unsafe/uncompliant by Energex. I received no Safety Certificate! It's been 3 months now without a confirmed fix date. Sunboost has recognized the issue but has been extremely slow in follow-up. Still hopeful they will come fix it soon and I can give positive update.

I'm only giving 4stars because in my opinion Sun boost objective is getting the sale in the bag. The whole pre sale transactions consisted of me taking photos of where the batteries could be located, floor plans of the house. I also provide a second option for the location of battery. After reviewing the photos Sunboost decided the first option… Read more · 1
was ok.They provided a quotation. I accepted the quote, paid the deposit. A couple of days later I receive a phone call from Sunboost saying the installer would be there on Monday. Also the caller indicated the remaining amount to be paid by the Monday. On the Monday before the installer arrived I receive a SMS telling me to deposit the remaining amount. I deposited into the nominated bank account. A few moments later the installer arrives to carry out the installation of the batteries. Before the installation could be undertaken, the installer undertook mandatory safety and regulations requirements and found the location chosen didn't meet the requirements. The location of the second option was viewed and passed the mandatory safety checks. This location was approved. Now the Stinger with the relocation came additional cost. And before any work got started, I had to deposit that amount of money. I was a little pissed off to say the least, and I vented this to Sunboost staff. Instead of conducting a sale in front of a computer screen have someone who has experience in the mandatory rules and regulations out to people homes and provide a true quote. If I want an Electrician or a Plumber, Carpenter to the location and provide a quote. I have no qualms with the installer he did and excellent job and set up the app and explained how it all worked.
I would like to provide some feedback regarding the recent service/maintenance on our solar system. Before I do this I'd like to acknowledge that we have used Sunboost to install our solar panels in 2023, and then in 2026 you installed our solar battery system. On both occasions we were very happy with the work and outcome, and left positive… Read more

But this service/maintenance that was recently carried out has left us very disappointed. We feel that we didn't receive a proper job for the $700.00 we paid. In fact, you seemed more interested in us paying the $700 before the service was actually carried out.
The technicians were only on the roof for a total of 15 minutes. Yes, I timed it. I can't see how you can properly inspect and clean 16 panels that were on 3 different areas of the roof in that short amount of time.
We have 6 panels on west side of main roof, 5 panels on north side of main roof, and 5 panels on north side of 2nd story. I'm not sure that the technician went onto 2nd story to do an inspection and panel clean.
Before the technicians arrived, I messaged them to confirm they were still attending. I also asked them the approximate timeframe they would need to carry out service. I was told 1 - 1 and 1/2 hours, depending on condition of panels.
When they arrived I greeting them and pulled out a list of what was included in complete system check. They glanced at it but didn't seem too interested. I went inside and let them set up their equipment.
We feel you have let us down on this occasion, as a valued repeat customer.
