A.  If you have filled out the forms correctly and you meet all the eligibility criteria then you should be paid your rebates within 6-8 weeks. 

Q. What is a REC?

A. Every solar hot water system is entitled to a certain amount of REC's (Renewable Energy Certificates) most of the systems we sell receive 31-33.  Put simply the power companies must comply with government regulations on the amount of  energy they produce from renewable sources.  If they cannot meet the target, they must buy REC's to make up the short fall.  We give them to you as a point of sale discount and claim them back on your behalf

Q. Will my solar hot water system produce power for my home.

A. No.  The solar hot water systems we sell use the heat from the sun to produce hot water.  The solar systems that produce power use a different technology called photovoltaics. They use the light from the sun to produce power.  It can get confusing and we would be very happy to explain it to you in depth.

A.  We get asked this a fair bit.  If you are buying solar hot water there are a few things you should ask the company. Do they have there own BSA, are they solar accredited, are they actually the plumbers or just a sales company and are they insured.  We have our own BSA, all our boys are solar accredited, we are actually the plumber and we have all our insurances.
