Thinking about going solar? Smart move.
With rising energy prices and generous solar rebates still available, there’s never been a better time for Queensland homeowners to make the switch.
But before you dive in, there are a few important things you need to know to make sure you get the best bang for your buck.
Here’s what we wish every customer knew before installing solar panels:
1. Not All Solar Systems Are Created Equal
Sure, two quotes might both say “6.6kW system” but the quality can vary massively.
Cheaper quotes often use lower-quality panels or inverters that won’t last the distance.
At SunFlux Solar, we only install Tier 1 panels from trusted brands, giving you better performance, longer warranties, and fewer headaches down the track.
💬 Tip: Always ask about panel brands, inverter brands, and warranty details before you sign anything.
2. Your Roof Matters More Than You Think
Your roof’s size, angle, shading, and even material can impact the design (and cost) of your system.
A good solar installer (like us!) will customise your setup to maximise sun exposure and efficiency, not just throw panels anywhere that fits.
👉 Queensland homes are perfect for solar, but every roof needs a tailored plan.
3. Solar Rebates Are Still Strong, But They're Reducing
The federal government’s solar rebate (technically called STCs) gives you a big upfront discount on your solar install.
But here’s the catch: the rebate reduces slightly every year until 2030.
That means the sooner you install, the bigger your savings.
👉 Thinking about solar? Don’t wait — you could save thousands by acting now.
4. Solar Is an Investment — and It Pays Off Fast
Most of our Gold Coast customers see a full return on investment in just 3 to 4 years.
After that, it’s pure savings.
Plus, a quality solar system can boost your property value and make your home more attractive if you decide to sell.
✅ Lower power bills
✅ Long-term energy security
✅ Better resale value
5. Choose a Local Installer You Can Trust
Solar isn’t a “set and forget” thing — you want a team that’ll be around for the long haul.
At SunFlux Solar, we’re Gold Coast locals who genuinely care about your experience, not some interstate company who disappears after install day.
We offer:
- Full post-installation support
- System monitoring advice
- Help with warranties if you ever need it
🌞 "We treat your home like it’s our own — and we’re only ever a phone call away."
