What to expect on the day of your solar installation

  • A normal solar installation should take around half to three-quarters of the day to install (dependent on the complexity of the install). Our installers arrive between 7-9am to begin the installation.

    We ask if you can be home when the installers arrive, this is so that they can go through the proposed layout/inverter location. If you do need to leave for whatever reason during the installation, then please let our installers know and they can organise for you to sign the STC form (assigning the STC’s to Termico Solar Generation). Otherwise this form will be signed at the completion of the installation.

    Due  to Worksafe requirements, your power will need to be turned off while the installers enter your roof space. Don’t worry – it won’t be off for long. Normally we require the power to be turned off around 60 minutes.

    Please  have your Wi-Fi password handy if you do wish to monitor your system performance (Termico Solar Generation will send through login details after the installation).

    If you have a tiled roof, we ask that you have at least 15 spare tiles on site on the day of the installation. Despite our best efforts, it is inevitable the installers will break some tiles on the day. If all spare tiles get used, we will let you know at the end of the installation and our installers will silicone the remaining broken tiles and move them as close to the gutter line as possible so that they are easily accessible to replace.

Other Useful Information

  • For the safety of our installers, wet weather may cause delays. In these instances they will install as much as they can and come back to complete the installation as soon as possible when the wet weather has cleared.

    Our  CEC accredited installers are legally required to install your panels in the most efficient way possible. In occasional circumstances, it may mean that the size of your system will change, if we are not able to install the panels as per our proposed layout. If any changes occur, Termico Solar Generation will discuss with you on the day of installation.

    Installation of a solar system to a double storey property may require cabling to be run through an external conduit to enable the panels to be connected to the inverter.
