Hi Terence & Marion,

Thank you for your feedback and for bringing this to our attention. We’re sorry to hear that some of your panels appeared marked or dirty — that’s certainly not the standard we aim to deliver.

Please rest assured that all panels installed are new and fully covered under warranty. Sometimes panels can appear dusty or marked from handling and transport, but this does not affect their performance or longevity.

Dealt with Brad from the Brisbane based team. Great communications and very informative. This fellow knows his products and is very helpful.
The Install was done by Chris (the electrician). He was very professional and again very polite and helpful and explained each step.
Overall, I could not be happier with the system i purchased and it works extremely well with the guys being more than helpful to answer any questions i posed after the install. Nothing is a problem for these guys. I highly recommend this Company.

From first contact it has been a seamless process with very prompt and helpful customer service. We highly recommend PowerSmart Solutions to anyone who are thinking of Solar panels and/or battery back up. As our batteries our outside we ordered a cover to protect it but the area was too confined. Took it back. Easy. Very happy customer.

Not enough information to the installation of the batteries. Salesman didn't inform us of the limitations of the positioning of the batteries. The workers worked around the alternative location. We have been away since it was installed so we haven't had enough time to experience the new system.

Hi Keith,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that our installation team were able to work around an alternative location for your batteries.

We’re sorry to hear there wasn’t enough information provided beforehand about the positioning limitations — we’ll review this with our sales team to ensure clearer communication in the future.

Once you’ve had some time to experience your new system, we’d love to hear how it’s performing for you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need any assistance in the meantime.
