Simple Steps to your new Solar Power System

What our residential customers are saying

  • We wanted to maximise the roof and put as much solar generation on there as possible, the system powers the whole house, plus all my crypto mining, and still has an excess it's great


    Shannon
  • I recently had the pleasure of working with AA Solar for the installation of solar panels and battery on my home, and I couldn't be more impressed.  Their professionalism, technical capability, and customer care are second to none. 


    Derek
  • AA Solar installed a solar system including batteries on my home.  I cannot speak highly enough of their team.  Every staff member I interacted with was professional, courteous and respectful.  I was impressed with the attention to detail and neatness of the installation.  The savings on my electricity bill is already much higher than I expected".


    Christine
  • My solar install that you guys did a year ago, is going well, coupled with the DC batteries it's all working mint.  Also extremely happy with the DEYE hybrid inverter.


    James
  • The Victron Solar System has been a great investment and more than provides for our requirements, we gave mains grid power little consideration over the current system. AA Solar, sales presentation, electrical engineering, and installation team have been exceptional to say the least, and if support is required there is no problem.


    Rob
  • Loving the fact that my electric car costs me nothing to run now, and any excess power goes into my batteries to use at night

FAQ

AA Solar has been helping NZ Families and homeowners for 30 years, combining leading solar technology with local expertise and genuine customer care.  Every customer receive tailor-made advice and lasting value.

When is the best time to install solar panels?

Solar panels can be installed year-round, although we don't install them in the rain or during high winds for safety reasons. You will likely achieve the most energy savings when sunshine hours are the longest ie summer and early autumn. Installing a system before this time ensures you can make the most of the long sunny days.

How long do solar panels take to install?

Most residential systems are installed in one to two days. This process includes mounting, wiring, inverter and battery setup and testing.

Can I add a battery to my solar system later?

Absolutely. Many AA Solar customers start with panels and upgrade to battery storage when ready, letting you store daytime power for use at night and providing backup during outages. Batteries are now more affordable than ever, and can often be financed through Q Card or with a green energy loan.

Do I need council consent to install solar panels in 2025?

No, rooftop solar installed on existing homes does not require building consent. For new homes, councils must process consents for solar panels within 10 working days, ensuring quick approval and minimal hassle.
