What to ask Sensible Solar 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.

• 1No certification is published on this listing. Ask for the registered electrical contractor number of whoever will issue your Certificate of Compliance, and confirm that person is the one doing the work rather than a name borrowed for the paperwork.
• 2Warranty terms are not stated. Ask for three separately: the panel performance warranty, the inverter warranty, and the workmanship warranty on the installation itself. The third is the one that fails first and the one most installers do not put in writing.
• 3Trading history is not published here. Ask how long the business has traded under its current registration, not the owner's years in the industry. A twenty-year electrician can still be running a two-month-old company, and your workmanship warranty is only as durable as the entity behind it.
• 4This business advertises a wide service area. Confirm who physically attends a callout at your address and what the response time is, because a wide footprint is often subcontracted and the warranty conversation gets complicated when the installing team is not the contracted party.

What solar is worth at this location

Ballito averages 4.9 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 3.6 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 14.0 kWh on an average winter day, 23.4 kWh in summer, and about 6 975 kWh a year. Ballito is billed by KwaDukuza, not eThekwini, so a Durban installer files the embedded-generation paperwork with a different municipality here. Estate architectural rules on the North Coast frequently restrict panel visibility from the street, which can force a lower-yield roof plane and should be raised before a quote is signed.
