What to know before you start
Menai is an established suburb. Many homes already have an older solar system, often small by today's standards, and some switchboards were not built with solar and batteries in mind.
Much of Menai was built from the 1970s onwards on the Woronora plateau, so most homes are single-storey or two-storey brick houses on reasonable blocks, often with a long north or west roof face. Many have a first-generation solar system that is now due for review.
Across the Shire, the common jobs are on established detached homes: assessing an older system, adding a battery to it, or replacing it with a system sized to how the household uses power now.
We design and install across the Sutherland Shire, so the questions below are the ones we look at on homes like yours.
What we design for Menai homes
Battery retrofits and upgrades
Add a battery or replace an ageing inverter where your existing system allows it.
Home batteriesSolar and battery
Hybrid systems that store daytime solar for the evening, when power costs the most.
Our packagesNew solar
Systems designed around your consumption, roof layout and network rules, not a standard package.
Residential solarWhat we check on a Menai home
Older solar systems
Many established Sydney streets have systems installed around 2010, when the old NSW Solar Bonus Scheme was running. We check what is there, whether any of it can stay, and what a modern system would add.
Switchboard condition
Older switchboards sometimes need an upgrade before solar or a battery can be connected safely. We check yours at the start, so it is in the price rather than a surprise.
Older tiled roofs
Older tile roofs need careful handling. We allow for replacing brittle tiles and plan the panel layout around the roof's condition.

Homes in Menai are generally on the Ausgrid network. Your network approves every connection and can limit how much solar you send back. Conditions depend on your property, so we apply for approval before installation.

Questions from Menai homeowners
I already have an old solar system. Should I upgrade or add a battery?
It depends on its age and the inverter. Systems from around 2010 are usually small and the inverter may be near the end of its life. We show you the numbers for keeping, upgrading or replacing it.
Does my switchboard need upgrading?
Sometimes. Older boards may not have room for the new protection devices, or may need safety upgrades. We check on the site visit and include anything needed in your quote.
Can you install on an older tiled roof?
Yes. We use tile-specific mounting, take care walking the roof and replace any tiles that crack. If the roof needs repairs first, we will tell you.
What rebates are available?
Most homes can get the federal solar rebate (STCs), and eligible batteries get the federal battery rebate. Both come off your price, and we claim them for you. Eligible NSW households can also use the NSW Government's 0% Home Energy Saver loan. The design tool shows what applies to you.
