We had 18 panels and power wall installed recently and are very impressed with the results! Jono was very helpful from the get-go from inception to completion jono kept us well informed through the whole process and was quick to respond to any questions we had. We highly recommend him!

We contacted Harrisons on their website and phone contact was made the next day & an appointment was arranged. Jono visited us the next day and we discussed what our needs were. There was no hard sell and Jono gave us several options explaining the upsides and downsides of each option. Communication throughout the whole job was excellent and the installation team were efficient, pleasant and very tidy. We highly recommend Jono & Harrison Solar Marlborough to anyone planning to install a solar system.

Had a 20 panel system fitted in Marlborough. Jono was extremely good at explaining and guiding me through the process also with frequent update emails. The installation team were very clean and tidy with good system layout.

We got Jono and the team from Harrison’s Solar in Marlborough to add another 12 panels to our existing 16 panel system (including Powerwall). We’re really happy and impressed with the install job and the results we’re getting. The system, running through two Fronius inverters, is working exactly as desired - providing our home’s immediate electrical needs and charging the house battery, then diverting to the EV, if plugged in, then diverting to the hot water system and finally any surplus going to the grid. A very tidy job, well designed and well executed. Thanks!

David Smith and his team from Harrison Solar supplied and installed our solar power system. The procedure was thoroughly explained to us prior to commencement. It all came together as planned at a competitive price.Very happy.

We would like to thank Tineka & Andre for their great service and willingness to help when we ask the dumb questions. They walk the talk and do what they say. Harrison's couldn't have better people to represent their product. We would recommend them and Harrisons Solar to anyone.

We were stepping into the unfamiliar with the installation of Solar panels & battery. However, with Stu and his team we felt supported and confident throughout the whole process and into the future. Would definitely recommend Stu at Harrison's Solar, Waikato !!

Stu and his team did a great job of understanding our requirements, quoting for and installing our solar panels. This was the second house we'd done this work (the first was with Harrison's in the Wairarapa) and Harrison's Waikato were just as professional, responsive and easy to deal with as the Wairarapa team. Their systems for managing the install all worked to plan and there were no suprises. The Waikato installation team worked around some atrocious weather conditions to get the panels installed, and up an running, very quickly. Really good value for money.

Great team to work with and very happy with the solar and battery systems installed. No more power cuts! Would highly recommend and would not hesitate to use them again in future.

Thanks you Andre and Tineka. From the start it was great support and no pressure. They worked at our pace and had plenty of advice and solutions. Once we commited they moved quickly and worked well on install time.

Andre and Tineka were very helpful in guiding us towards the best setup for our place. Installation was professionally done and very tidy. After sales service is prompt too. When our inverter was temporarily put out of action by a power spike, Andre got onto it immediately. Very handy them having online access to do remote firmware updates etc. Highly recommended

Harrison’s Solar team have been great to deal with. We have recently had a solar system installed and the process from quote to installation and the ongoing support is excellent.All members of the team respond to queries in a timely fashion. Highly recommend this team if you are considering installing a solar system

The team was very good only took 4 hours to get the system set up and it's working properly everything was easy, I'm very happy with the product and workmanship thanks Harrisons for everything.

Sharron and the team are great to deal with. Premium products, with a service to match.Couldn't be happier with the system they installed, and great communication throughout the process.You won't go wrong with using these guys for your solar wants or needs.Highly recommend.

Harrisons installed solar panels in our house about 12 months ago. Right from our first point of contact with Steve and Sharron their customer service and product knowledge has been excellent. There was no pressure to purchase solar but the fact Steve and Sharron were able to answer, with facts all our questions made our decision so much easier. In fact, we have just signed up to install extra panels plus a "battery" to make ourselves better future proofed. Again no pressure from Steve and Sharron. Just great customer service answering all our questions. We are very pleased with both the system and customer followup. Great partnership.

Awesome to deal with and the install was a breeze, looking forward to not having power outages this winter

From the initial introduction through to the installation and behind the scene documentation the Harrisons Solar - Taranaki team have been fantastic. Great customer service throughout the entire process. We are very happy with our new solar system and would fully recommend Harrisons Solar - Taranaki to anyone interested in going solar.

Steve and Sharron are a pleasure to work with. Very helpful and provide amazing support to their clients. The lads who completed our system were great to deal with and did a very professional job and were helpful also!! Would recommend to anyone

Fantastic service. Fast and efficient and very good communication. We are very happy with our solar install. Thanks.

I am very happy with the Harrisons team, the guys were friendly and helpful, they were efficient and did a great job going that extra mile for me, I would happily recommend them. The whole team have been extremely helpful through the entire process

We are very happy with the communication from Struan and his team from the initial information received to when coming to our property on site to install the solar system. We are excited to be part of the solar family in Hawkes Bay.

Very good company to deal with. Very clear with information from start of the process to the end result. Installation was a great experience - team was friendly, clean, tidy, efficient and everything done on time and to expectations. Follow-up has been great and we are very happy with the result. Thanks

Great advice and great service. Would definitely use them again.

Thanks to Carl Williams and colleagues Sian and Renche in the office at Harrisons Solar, from the first really detailed and helpful meeting with Carl scoping our requirements through to final inspection, we had a seamless and hassle free installation of our 16 solar panels and Tesla Powerwall battery. At each stage in the process from new power meter change, scaffolding arrangements, through to the highly efficient 1 day installation of the solar system components, we were kept informed of progress and the weather dependent contingency plans. Our first meeting with Carl through to final inspection of the system took about 6 weeks.Despite our installation being completed close to the shortest day, we have been really pleased at the amount of solar power generated from our panels even on overcast days and our first power bill since the installation reflects the substantial reduction in used grid power.

professional knowledge , quick response good communication, efficient work, practical advices, good after-sales service

Thanks to Guy & the team at Harrisons for their excellent service, great advice and quick turnaround from our initial contact, receiving the quote thru to the actual installation of our new solar power system. We’re loving watching the grid usage drop off and our power production kick in. Stoked!

It is fantastic having Andrew and Kim at Harrisons to recommend to clients - we've had such great feedback on their knowledge, customer service and competitive pricing - as well as the great quality of their products and up to date technology. Really appreciate them going the extra mile with training us on their product and keeping us current with anything new or upcoming. Can't recommend them highly enough if you're considering solar.

I was super impressed with Andrew and Kim. They are so prompt to answer all of my questions and give a great advice. The installer was really friendly and efficient. It couldn’t have gone smoother! Highly recommend

Julian from Harrisons was so professional, informative and really did an amazing job installing solar at ours. Also upgraded our switchboard for a future EV purchase! Very happy and thanks for the excellent service!!

After having a bit of a bad experience at the beginning I then got Julian assigned to do the job. Now it was all easy, he explained the whole process of upgrading our solar system and installing a Tesla Powerwall in detail. It was installed in short time and the job done clean and tidy. Julian was always quick in responding to our enquiries, nothing was a hassle to him. Thank you!

Outstanding service and communication from Nerum Bonesetter. My solar system is almost 2 years old now, still going the same as new, don't think we paid for electricity since the system installation. Nerum's team got the job done very quickly and professionally - this is the case when you finally find your dream team.

From inquiry to install to post-sales Harrisons have been great to work with. Guy answered all our questions quickly and fully. Sorry, I don’t know the name of the installers but they were polite, tidy and professional. I am now obsessed with the app to see the power generation. We were put on the wrong plan by Mercury but Guy guided us and all sorted now. Highly Recommend.

Carl Williams from Harrison Solar was outstanding to deal with. His solar installer S4 Smart Electrical Ltd did an excellent install with cables etc. hidden in the wall. We purchased AIKO NeoStar Solar panels and Tesla Power wall 2. We are very pleased with Carl and recommend him

Excellent to deal with, great comms, installed ahead of schedule and very tidy workmanship. Super available for after sales support too.

From first deciding to go for solar to being up and running, this was a seamless process. Guy Coleman was great to deal with, he talked us through our options and answered all the questions we had, as well as staying in touch with us throughout. We decided on 14 panels and a Powerwall. The installation team worked quickly and efficiently, not even stopping for a cup of tea on a very cold day! We are very pleased with the system and highly recommend!!

Roy was amazing professional and patient

We are really happy with our experience working with Cameron from Harrisons Christchurch. He made everything very easy right from the quoting process, he was happy to give me options, and patient with waiting for us to be able to commit to the install. Everyone we dealt with along the way was great and we are very happy to have our system installed to make the most of some late autumn sun. Definitely recommend Harrisons, as they were the only company I spoke to who came out to see the house, the roof, the pitch of the roof etc in order to do the quote. Companies should not be doing a quote without seeing your house! Thanks Cameron & Harrisons

Recently we engaged Harrisons to install a 12 panel solar array on our home. From first contact to final commissioning our interactions were friendly, efficient and timely. Chris was very knowledgeable and explained each step and option carefully. The installation team carried out their work in a very professional manner and the system was running within two days following the final electrical inspection. We are very happy with all aspects of the installation process.

Fantastically professional and competent service. Stuck to schedule without having to be chased, were a pleasure to work with.

Had 12 panels installed and they were great and walked me through the process. Helped me organise the scaffolding quote and also when I was having issues with the bank directed me to someone to assist me. Really great service. Good communication via emails as we progressed through each stage from quote, setting up appointments and then inspections. Were super accommodating for rescheduling the install when I had a family event occur that meant I needed to delay the install. Thanks so much! Im super excited to have the panels in and having a reduced or zero power bill

We got a great Solar system from Harrisons Solar. Carl set us up with the perfect system for us. The team did a very tidy install. We are getting great savings already and will well into our future. This is a solid investment and I am pleased we have made a long term decision.

Such awesome service and excellent communication. They really know what they’re doing and made the whole process super easy. I really appreciated the consultation where they went over everything in clear language and made it easy to make a decision that works for us. Utterly efficient install. Handled everything with my electricity provider. The panels also look great!

Amazing customer service from the initial meetings, getting a quote, through to the installation and training. Darryl was informative, listened to our needs and designed a system for us accordingly. We also obtained 2 other quotes from different companies but went with Harrisons both for the quality of the products (solar panels, battery and inverter) as well as his competitive price. The whole process was smooth and seamless with Karyn on the admin side who answered any queries promptly. The instal was amazing and happened very quickly from accepting the quote. Blair and his team were professional and efficient and everything was installed in a day. We have now had our system up and running for almost a month and have had no issues. Highly recommend getting a quote from Harrisons if you are considering a solar instal.

Stu Robinson sold the system to us. Friendly, helpful, professional. The team that did the installation were superb. Helpful, quick, neat. This system (probably the minimum), is generating more power at this time of year than I expected! Even on a heavy overcast day, we are getting usable power. Thanks team! We are now learning how to best use the system. I totally recommend forking out for a smart meter. It gives you the information to help you use your power better. Only downside, trying to get the meter owner ( contact) to install the import/export meter! They will come up with any excuse for not doing it. Do live chat, and demand a credit.

Very happy with the system Stu and team designed suggested and installed. We went through countless options and designs before settling on end result. Install was painless. System performing as expected. Well done

Kia ora. Very satisfied with our system from Tineka & Andre. Products all seem high quality and integrate together really well, super tidy installation job with minimal space taken up by the components. Thanks for being really responsive and open-minded about the endless design/setup options that exist. Ngā mihi nui

These guys are good. Andre and Tineka. I have worked in marketing most of my life. Often companies promise much but don't quite deliver. These guys deliver. There's a no bull.... approach. Recommend them.

From our first inquiry until installation the support from the team at Harrisons Waikato has been seamless. Dumb questions were answered with professionalism and information about our new solar system dispensed before some questions were asked. The installation team did a great job ensuring the equipment was conveniently located plus; they cleaned up after themselves! Don't go anywhere else! Andre and Tineka Kavanagh are a pleasure to work with!

Daryl was able to talk us through our questions and expectaations. His choice to use a regular install crew that he could trust and rely on is a good call, rather than just random hired hands. The battery really is the game changer enabling power to be used later in the day, coupled with maximising Contact's free power 9.00 - midnight, meaning in summer very little paid for power used, whilst being paid for export. In fact in summer, in the evening I was able to charge 2 electric cars at the same time as sending power back to the grid! In winter, obviously not generating as much, but still about half of what it would have been - that's with 2 heat pumps, 2 electric cars (and no pertol bills), 1 spa as well as the water heating and other uses. The battery came into it's own yesterday during a planned power outage, where using the app on the phone we could ensure we had 100% stored when the power went out.

Seamless. So easy to deal with Carl Williams and his team from Harrison’s solar. We are delighted with our bespoke solar system. As we had specific requirements and budget, Carl worked with us to achieve this fantastic addition to our home. Couldn’t be happier with workmanship and the team that made it happen. Better still is the huge reduction in power bills!

Glad I took Daryl's advice and added extra panels. The installation team did an excellent job.Very happy with the system

Solar panel installation Omaha, Auckland. We received three proposals and prices from firms that had been recommended to us. Harrisons Solar through their installer Carl Williams was chosen. Carl was very helpful and gave us clear explanations. He gave valuable support through the entire process. The contractors were very quick and competent and we are delighted with the whole result.

Had a great relationship with Harrisons and Andrew from start to finish, everyone involved in our solar install/transition was awesome and stressless is a good product and great service i would recommend Harrisons to any one thinking of under going solar thank you for great experience/purchasel

The service was excellent from when we got the quote. Would recommend the team that installed and from the salesman Rick

Laura and the team were great to deal with and the installation was quick and well done. Thanks team

Very happy with the installation. The installation was smooth and fast. Guy Coleman is extremely approachable and patient to answer all questions before and after. I approached a few other companies and one even said my roof is not suitable for putting panels on but Guy put through a solution for me. I know I have got great panels, inverter and Tesla battery and the system will last. Highly recommend Harrisons Solar and Guy’s team if you are considering going Solar!

Julian and his team at Harrison's Solar have been amazing to deal with. Quick responses to any questions I have, clear reasons to support the recommendations of what to go for, a and a quick and tidy install, and panels working as promised. Just be wary of the Mercury Harrison deal on Offer at the moment as Mercury is dropping the ball on timely install and connection of the nessiary 2 way smart meter, with over a month or more waiting required.

Nerum was very upfront and honest about the Solar technology being used and what it would be able to provide for us. He had great communication throughout, even though there were a few issues that needed to be ironed out, he got them sorted. Would highly recommend them.

Excellent quality product and excellent service. A big thanks to Struan, Rachael and the team for making the process so easy.

My Wife and I engaged with Harrisons Solar, (Struan & Rachael) as we liked the idea of Solar Technology, we did some extensive research and Struan sat down with us to understand our power needs and came to us with solutions. Once we decided what we wanted (Solar panels, 6.0kw/h inverter and selling excess power to the grid, no battery, yet) the Harrisons Team looked after everything from local council compliance to install. We are now 18 months since the install and are happily seeing the benefits. The application on the phone is super simple to see what is going on and the Harrisons team is always there for support. Over the summer months in the Wairarapa we have a zero dollar power bill, it is great as when it is really hot outside we can have both house heat pumps on 16 degrees and it is not costing a thing, in fact it seems rude not to use the power, this is while also running a spa and pool pump while also using the dishwasher (which heats water) and the heat pump dryer. While the investment will not be paid off over night we are seeing the day to day benefit especially with the rising cost of power and the fact is we own the hardware so no issues if we wanted to sell the house. The Wife and I are really happy with the product and the professional approach of the Harrisons Team and have and will continue to recommend them.

Roy was very knowledgeable about his products and the installation process. We enjoyed excellent communication, timely and problem-free installation, and great after-sales service. Would highly recommend.

Roy was great to deal with, he explained everything fully and was friendly and professional. The solar panels are already making a huge difference to our power costs and we're very happy and would recommend to all.

Carl and the team were great to deal with. We had concerns about our concrete roof tiles being damaged during the process, but they gave us the confidence to go ahead, knowing that in the unlikely event any problems would be fixed. Great communication throughout the process, they turned up when they said they would and installation was super quick. We are delighted with the panels and are already seeing savings - can’t wait until Summer! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

We are very happy with the whole process of getting our Solar Power. Guy was able to answer all our questions, and organized the install in a very timely manner. Information enabled us to get the best deal for power internet provider. And we love seeing the savings we are already making, even on cloudy days.

Justin was great to deal with, very thorough and nothing was a problem. Great communication from start to finish.

Very professional and efficient. Excellent communications

We have just had a solar system installed. Throughout the process, Harrisons Solar staff have been totally professional and Tom has communicated with us very well, keeping us informed through every step of the process. Highly recommended.

Harrisons' contractors were very efficient  and quick with our installation.   We would recommend Tom and Bill and their team to anyone contemplating installing solar.

Tom and his team did a great job. Tom was quick to respond after we requested a quote and he came up with a nice solution for our situation. The install went about as smoothly as we could have hoped. We are very happy with how our system is performing so far. Definitely highly recommend.

Tom and his team did an excellent job of setting us up with solar panels and battery. There was good communication and the install went to plan. Testament to the sparkies, the electrical inspector commented on how good the install was. To cap it off our last power bill was a $30 credit.

Communication with Adrian was great and the service exceptional. Had solar panels with battery installed recently and so far all good. Watching the savings trickle in.

Response to initial enqury was prompt and Sarel was through in his explanation of the system and the pricing was better than we had expected. Only drawback was not having an inverter in stock which delayed the installation by a few weeks. However it worked to our advantage as the new panels were then installed.

It is approx 3 months since it has been up & running. The solar system performance has been faultless! The installers were extremely professional & friendly, taking ONE day to complete the task, job well done!! (We give them an AA.A+plus Rating)

The way we see it is an investment  in future proofing  our most expensive asset our home....great to know we are limiting our carbon footprint & are contributing to the independence of New Zealand's future.

‍

Excellent service and more importantly technical knowledge from Julian who is actually an electrician. Julian guided us through the process and was always happy to help. Excellent back up service also which can be hard to find these days.

Harrisons Solar - Waikato have been great to deal with from the start. There was no preassure with the product choice and they were very knoledgeable on their product. The follow up by their staff before installation was great and the install was done quickly and we were up and running. Very impressed would definitely recomed them if you are looking at getting solar.

Found the whole process pretty easy and straight forward

How do I even begin?Thorough, supportive and professional.from start to finishHarrison Solar was responsive and helpful, from the time we first called, through our decision-making process, and throughout the planning and installation of our system. Especially Nerum Bonesetter went over the options with us and answered all our questions, and worked with us to plan our system and guide us through the necessary steps, and the staff was also very helpful and efficient, and the installation went smoothly and as planned. Nerum Bonesetter also followed up with us to be sure the system was working as it should. We are very pleased with Harrison Solar and would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone considering a solar installation...Call Harrison Solar and save some money..

We have been so thrilled to work with Harrison’s Solar, Northland.From our initial consultation with Sarel, to his team coming on-site and smashing out the work required for installation, to the always available Minnette who’s admin communication went above and beyond in helping us.It has been an absolute pleasure working with you all! Now…. Let the sun shine so we can make some energy!

Excellent experience. Sarel was ++ knowledgeable, Minette was always very responsive and helpful, and Francois and Ben did a great install. We are very happy we went with Harrison’s. The competition was way too aggressive and pushy. They could learn a lot from Harrison’s team. Thanks guys.

From the first visit to the last we were completely satisfied with Harrisons Solar. Alex's knowledge and advice ment we knew we were getting the best fit for us and the costings were fully explained. Now its been running for a few months and couldn't be a more satisfied customer, we highly recommend them.

From the very start of our meeting with Alex and his preparation of his proposal, we knew we were dealing with a knowledgeable professional team. All questions answered fully and installation arranged seamlessly.  After 6 weeks if generation we are more than happy and can recommend Alex, Lauren and Joanna as the Harrison's team to go for.

There's 4x Harrisions Solar franchises in Canterbury. We went with Camerons who is based out of Rolleston. Professional approach and went into a high level of detail during the sales process when I asked lots of questions. Excellent quoting presentation that maps the products on your roof and data takes into account local weather and sunshine hours. Install was only 12 days after we paid the deposit - and was up and running that day. Very happy with the solution and would highly recommend.

We have been very pleased with our solar installation by Cameron and his team at Harrison's. The installers worked very hard to deliver our system. The planning and after sales support has been faultless.

We are very happy with our experience of having Harrison's install a solar system in our wee over 60's unit. Cameron was awesome to work with, full of knowledge, that he was happy to share, and always prompt for appointments.Our 7 panel system works great and our usual power bills of around $140 p/m have reduced to around $60 p/m.I must also give thanks to the on-site work team who completed the job with a minimum of fuss and disruption, and were so pleasant to have on site.Thanks also to Jenny for being so helpful and patient helping us out to get our side of the paperwork completed.I can highly recommend Cameron and the team to anyone looking to have SOLAR installed on their property.

What a wonderful group to work with and the install team were amazing. Swayze, Travis and Chris went above and beyond to make it easy and painlessCan highly recommend

From initial consultation with Sharon to installation day with Swayze and his awesome team has been faultless.Every promise from Harrisons Solar Taranaki was delivered on. Sharon always had time to answer questions and help navigate dealing with our power company. If you want solar in Taranaki, Harrison’s should be your only consideration. Thanks again team.

The team from Harrisons in Taranaki were absolutely awesome when they installed our solar panels. It was great team work and they certainly know how to work hard ! Thanks

I don't typically write reviews but this seems warranted. Harrisons offer a good solar product, but what really sets them apart, especially their Taranaki branch is the incredible customer service. We signed up to have solar installed and every step of the process was incredibly well managed. All their staff went above and beyond to make sure you were informed about their product, how it integrated with other parts of the house, and even where to get the best deals on power. Nothing was ever too much trouble. True 5 star kiwi service.

The solar panels were installed with minimum of fuss and with care and attention to detail. The installers were always thinking of the best way to install and keep things looking smart and tidy without our asking. very professional.

The solar installation was inspected yesterday and the glowing recommendations for you Jon were wonderful to hear. Obviously Harrisons Solar and Bluewater are held in high regard by those in the industry. We are very lucky to have such expertise in our corner.Thank you again for your attention to all details of this installation.

We had a number of quotes and discussions from a variety of potential suppliers. Cameron (Christchurch) provided us with great, timely information as we went through a minefield of information and differing views, to ensure what will be best for us and our needs. Cameron and his team were great in their communication, giving clear answers to our many questions and able to get the install done as quickly as possible. The pricing was in our range and the support from Cameron was exlempary in helping provide additional information for us to consider. Very satidifed with the service and experience.

We met with Stu at our home and discussed the benefits of solar. Stu was patient and importantly not pushy in any way. We made the decision to run with Harrison’s and within a month we were up and running. This time last year we paid Gas Power and line fees totalling $352 for January. This month our bill was $88.00! (Switched power companies also to get free power for 3 hours each night) - that’s a great return on our investment. Very happy with our decision.What a great team to work with, we can’t speak highly enough of the Waikato crew.

I had been wanting to invest in solar for years but hadn’t found the right mix of company and sales rep that I believed and trusted until I met Julian with Harrison’s Solar. Julian has a lot of experience with solar here and around the world, nothing too much hassle for him . The install went flawlessly, complete in one day with a 20 panel 8 K/Wh system and Tesla battery. This is a big investment and you want to be happy and comfortable with your decision, I have no regrets what so ever.

‍

I wasn't sure what to expect going into this project but Julian and his team did an amazing job at answering all my questions and putting me at ease that the solution proposed was tailored to my situation and now that the work is done, I can 100% say I am satisfied with the finished product.I did a lot of my own research beforehand (highly recommend getting a Tesla Powerwall Battery installed if you can to really make use of the system) and I felt very comfortable throughout the whole process.Well done Julian and Liam. I'll be sure to recommend you to everyone that asks me about my setup and look forward to getting another Powerwall battery installed in the near future!

We have had an excellent experience with Harrisons installing solar panels and Tesla battery.  Julian was excellent in explaining how the system operates and helpful in giving advice and guidance.  I would recommend Harrisons for solar installation.

I had many companies quote our Solar. I went with Harrison’s Solar because expertise and knowledge Julian held with his previous experience as an electrician. Most other companies had salespeople who had no idea what they were talking about. The install was excellent, Shiraz and his team did an excellent job. I would highly recommend Julian and Harrison’s for your Solar.

Hassle-free transaction with Daryl, Karyn, Blair and the team. Very professional to deal with. Superb communication and explained the products really well.The installation was neat and tidy. It only took 1 day to finished. Super impressed with the result.Thank you so much for your hard work and would highly recommend.

Had Daryl and his team back last month to install a battery on the system we had installed by them in 2020. Super quick and highly professional team.

‍

Darryl and his team did a great job with the solar and battery installation at my place from everything to positioning of solar panels and battery’s it was all beautifully laid out. Super happy

Excellent quality product and excellent service.  A big thanks to Struan, Rachael and the team for making the process so easy.
