Had a small enphase installed a few years back and have been satisfied with the savings but when I called to see if I could increase the size I found out that model was no longer available BUT a new model battery would be available that would be compatible. They said they would call me when it was available. Unfortunately I have not heard from them.

Very professional installation and service. Ongoing monitoring discovered a fault with two optimizers which were replaced under warranty. HCB always answer the phone promptly and are available to address any concerns without fuss. A fantastic local business in the Hunter.

Like many, I did a fair bit of research before selecting HCB Solar (having had either no confidence or no satisfactory response from four previous companies). From my first phone call to the installation (yesterday) and to our first full day with the system, I have nothing but praise. From order to installatioin was only 2 weeks, the pre-installation inspection was excellent in providing both information and advice, the installers arrived on time, were courteous and efficient, gave a great run through of the system and how to monitor production and consumption and left the place clean and tidy. I would happily recommend them and would certainly use them again for future expansion of the system. ***** Now some years down the track I would still recommend them. We had one small part fail a few years ago. One phone call, no problem, fixed in a matter of days. I’m only sorry we didn’t install a battery at the same time as the panels!

Very professional solar business. Did a lot of online research & reading reviews before deciding on HCB. Glad I did as it has been a no hassle process, before, during and after the installation. I highly recommend them to anyone looking at installing solar.

My partner and I got an expertly designed and installed Enphase system and were very happy with the entire process.
Both the office team and installation
team were very nice and explained everything the whole way through.
We will definitely be back to add batteries to our system in the near future.😁

Very professional company with staff who know what they are doing and provide excellent service. I would not use any other company in Newcastle
to install and clean solar panels.
