SOLAR DESIGNED PROPERLY

Not just panels on a roof.

A good solar system starts with understanding the property and how electricity is actually used. We design around the whole installation rather than starting with a generic package.

OUR APPROACH

SOLAR BUILT AROUND YOUR PROPERTY

A solar system should make sense for the home or business it is installed on.

Helios Electrical Group provides solar system design and installation across Adelaide and surrounding suburbs.

Before recommending a system, we consider electricity usage, available roof space, panel placement, shading, switchboard capacity and how your energy needs may change in the future.

The aim is not simply to install the largest system that fits. It is to design a practical solar system that performs reliably and delivers value over the long term.

01

Designed Around Usage

System size and layout considered around how the property actually uses electricity.

02

Quality Equipment

Panels, inverters and electrical equipment selected with reliability and long term support in mind.

03

Clean Installation

Care taken with panel layout, cable routes, equipment placement and the electrical installation as a whole.

  • Owner handover and explanation

SYSTEM DESIGN

More goes into solar than system size.

Two properties with similar electricity bills can still require very different solar designs.

Roof layout, shading, electricity use, switchboard configuration and future plans all influence what makes sense for the property.

Electricity Usage

How much electricity the property uses and when that electricity is being consumed.

Roof Layout

Available roof space, orientation, roof sections and practical panel placement.

Shading

Trees, neighbouring buildings and roof features that may affect solar production.

Switchboard

Existing electrical infrastructure and whether upgrades are required for the proposed system.

Future Battery

Whether battery storage may be added later and how that affects the system design today.

Future Loads

Planned EV charging, electrification or other changes that may increase electricity use.

WHY SOLAR?

MAKE MORE OF YOUR OWN ENERGY

01

Reduce Grid Consumption

Solar can offset electricity that would otherwise be purchased from the grid during daylight hours.

02

Prepare For Battery Storage

A properly planned solar system can make future battery integration simpler when storage becomes part of the energy plan.

03

Support Future Electrification

Solar can form part of a wider energy system that may later include EV charging, battery storage and other electric loads.

THINKING AHEAD

SOLAR TODAY. BATTERY LATER.

You do not necessarily need to install everything at once.

If battery storage is something you may consider in the future, it is worth thinking about while the solar system is being designed.

The inverter, system size, switchboard layout, monitoring and equipment placement can all influence how straightforward future battery integration may be.

We can discuss your longer term plans during the solar design stage so the system installed today does not unnecessarily limit your options later.

Future planning can include:

  • Hybrid inverter options
  • Future battery location
  • Switchboard capacity
  • Backup power requirements
  • Energy monitoring
  • EV charging plans
  • Changing household electricity usage

OUR PROCESS

FROM DESIGN TO COMMISSIONING

01

Assess

We look at the property, electricity usage, roof layout, existing electrical installation and what you want the system to achieve.

02

Design

The solar system is designed around the available space, expected energy use, suitable equipment and any future battery or EV plans.

03

Install & Handover

The system is installed, tested and commissioned, with monitoring configured and the system explained before the job is finished.

COMMON QUESTIONS

SOLAR SYSTEM FAQ

What size solar system do I need?

The right solar system size depends on your electricity usage, when you use electricity, available roof space and your future energy plans. We assess these factors before recommending a system size.

Can I add a battery later?

In many cases, yes. If battery storage may be added later, it is worth considering this during the initial solar design so the inverter, electrical infrastructure and equipment layout are suitable for your longer term plans.

Can you install solar on a three phase property?

Yes. Solar systems can be designed for three phase properties. The existing supply, switchboard, proposed system size and connection requirements are considered as part of the design.

Can an existing solar system be upgraded?

Sometimes. Whether an existing system can be expanded or upgraded depends on the existing panels, inverter, roof space, electrical infrastructure and current connection requirements. We can assess the installation and explain the available options.

Do you install solar for businesses?

Yes. Helios provides solar solutions for homes and businesses. Commercial systems are assessed around the property's electricity demand, available installation space and electrical infrastructure.

Will I be able to monitor my solar system?

Modern solar systems generally provide inverter monitoring so system performance can be viewed through the appropriate monitoring platform. Where suitable, additional consumption monitoring can also provide greater visibility over how electricity is being used.

Does every roof suit solar?

Not every roof has the same solar potential. Roof orientation, usable space, shading, roof condition and surrounding obstacles can all influence the design and expected performance of a solar system.
