Pre-wired conduit and a switchboard with a solar-ready circuit simplifies the install but does not determine your system size. Builder solar pre-wiring in Tarneit estates is typically sized for a 6.6kW system, but your roof, load profile, and how you use the home will determine whether 9.9kW or 13.3kW is the better long-term choice. We assess the roof, the pre-wiring, and your last four bills before recommending a size. In many cases we can use the builder's conduit run directly, which reduces installation time.

A 6.6kW system in Tarneit typically costs $5,500 to $7,500 before rebates, depending on panel brand and inverter selection. After the Solar Victoria rebate of up to $1,400 and the federal STC discount of approximately $1,800 to $2,400, the net cost for eligible homeowners is around $3,000 to $4,000 for a 6.6kW install. For a 9.9kW system, the STC discount is proportionally larger. Sunflare Solar provides an itemised quote showing all applicable rebates before you sign anything.

Ask for their SAA accreditation number and verify it at solaraccreditation.com.au. Ask if they are a registered Solar Victoria retailer — without this, your $1,400 rebate is inaccessible through them. Ask whether they subcontract the installation to a third crew. Ask who you call if something needs checking in year five. Then compare that to Sunflare Solar's accreditation number, S7274762, which you can verify on the same public register. Price is one variable. Accreditation chain, warranty continuity, and rebate access are the others.

All of Tarneit and Truganina falls within Powercor's distribution network. Sunflare Solar prepares and submits the Powercor connection application, provides all required SAA documentation, and manages any follow-up queries from the network on your behalf. Typical Powercor approval in the 3029 postcode takes five to ten business days once submitted. Physical installation takes one day for a standard residential system. We schedule the installation to follow approval so there is no delay between install and commissioning.
