Why solar makes sense on the Gold Coast

The Gold Coast is one of the sunniest places in Australia, which makes rooftop solar one of the smartest ways for a home owner to take on rising energy bills. It cuts your electricity costs while reducing your environmental impact.

LMS installs the same packages here as in Brisbane: economiser solar, battery-ready solar, and solar plus battery storage.

Will my solar panels rust on the coast?

Salt air affects everything near the beach, from cars to fences. The panels and components LMS installs are made from durable, corrosion-resistant materials designed for coastal conditions, but no system is completely unaffected.

Regular cleaning and semi-regular inspections help catch corrosion early. Where it is a concern, LMS recommends installing inverters and batteries in a sheltered location such as the garage to reduce their exposure to salty air.

    Assessment

    We visit your property to check its suitability for solar: roof angle, shading and structural integrity.

  2. 2

    Design

    Based on our discussion with you and the site assessment, we design a system that meets your needs.

  3. 3

    Permits

    Approvals are needed before installation. We take care of the paperwork so you don't have to.

  4. 4

    Installation

    Our own electricians install the panels, connect the inverter and hook everything up to your electrical system, usually within a day or two.

  5. 5

    Commissioning and monitoring

    The system is tested for proper function, and monitoring is set up so you can track production and use in real time.

Reviews

What customers say

  • Five stars.

    The entire experience of solar panel and battery purchase, design and installation was fantastic. This company's staff were all great communicators. The installation, although on the larger size plus at a distance from their home base, went smoothly. We very much enjoyed the way the installation team worked together with such professionalism and great humour. …

    These are absolutely fantastic. The team was communicative, flexible, kept us up to date with everything that was happening. Even had excellent customer service skills and tech support post installation which I cannot commend highly enough. If I were to go solar again it would be with LMS.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Why are solar panels a good idea for Gold Coast property owners?

Living on the Gold Coast means plenty of sunny days, and that's exactly why solar panels are such a great idea! With so much sunshine, you can easily tap into solar energy to lower your electricity bills and enjoy the benefits of clean, renewable power. Not only will you save money in the long run, but solar panels can also increase the value of your property.

I live on the Gold Coast. What can I do to prevent my solar panels from rust?

Regular cleaning and semi-regular inspections help identify and prevent corrosion. Installing inverters and batteries in sheltered locations, such as your garage, is encouraged if corrosion is a concern, because it reduces their exposure to salty air.

Are all solar companies electrical contractors?

No, unfortunately, most companies that sell solar panels in Australia are not electrical contractors and instead subcontract the installation to other companies. LMS Electrical is an electrical contractor. This means we do the installations and provide post-installation monitoring and support.

Do you use subcontractors?

No, we do not rely on subcontractors. Our fully qualified and experienced in-house electricians handle all aspects of your solar installation. This means significantly higher-quality workmanship.

How long does it take to install a solar system?

The physical installation of a residential solar system varies from one day to several days, depending on the size of the system, but the entire process, from initial consultation to the installation of a fully functioning solar system, may take several weeks, depending on permitting and inspection requirements.
