What to ask Grifflec before you sign
These questions are generated from what this specific listing does and does not tell us. They are not accusations - a gap in a directory record usually means nobody has filled it in yet - but they are the gaps you should close yourself.
- 1There is little or no public review history on file. Ask for two reference installations completed in the last year within 30 km of you, and phone them. A small review count is not a red flag on its own - plenty of good installers never chase reviews - but it does mean you have to do the verification yourself.
What solar is worth at this location
Pietermaritzburg averages 5.1 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 4.0 in June. On those figures a 5 kW array with a 5 kWh battery - the most commonly quoted household system in South Africa - generates roughly 15.6 kWh on an average winter day, 23.8 kWh in summer, and about 7 260 kWh a year. The Midlands sit high enough to get materially better winter sun than the Durban coast while staying out of the marine corrosion zone, which makes it one of the better value-per-rand solar locations in the province. Msunduzi bills its own electricity.

This listing has not been claimed by Grifflec. It was compiled from public business records and the company's own published material, then checked for internal consistency. We publish it because an incomplete listing that says so is more useful than no listing at all, but treat every field as unverified until the business confirms it.
Ratings and review counts shown are the public Google figures at the time of our last refresh and will drift. Something wrong here? Claim the listing or tell us and we will correct it.
