What this business's certifications actually buy you

Certifications are self-declared on unclaimed listings and are not independently audited by SolarZA. Ask for the certificate number and check it with the issuing body before you sign anything.

What to ask Subscribe to the sun 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.

• 1Trading 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.
• 2There 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.
• 3This 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

Letlhabile, Brits averages 5.7 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 4.7 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 18.3 kWh on an average winter day, 25.4 kWh in summer, and about 8 114 kWh a year. Madibeng, which covers Brits and Hartbeespoort, has a documented history of electricity distribution debt and interruption independent of national load shedding. That pushes local demand toward genuine backup autonomy rather than the grid-tied, no-battery configuration that suits a stable metro feeder.
