Warranty
What is warranted, by whom, and for how long
We provide a 5 years installation and workmanship warranty, and pass through the full manufacturer warranty on every product we supply. All of it sits on top of your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, which cannot be excluded.
Warranty cover at a glance
Indicative terms only. The warranty periods and conditions that actually apply to you are the ones named in your written quote and the manufacturer documentation supplied with it.
| Item | Typical term | Provided by | What it covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Installation & workmanship | 5 years from Practical Completion | Astrion Energy | Covers the quality of our installation work — mounting, penetrations and weatherproofing, DC and AC wiring, isolation, labelling, switchboard work and commissioning. |
| Inverters | 10 years product warranty (typical) | Manufacturer / Australian importer | Applies unless the manufacturer's datasheet or warranty document states a different term. Where a manufacturer offers longer than 10 years, the longer term applies on their terms. |
| Batteries | 10 years product warranty (typical) | Manufacturer / Australian importer | Battery warranties also carry capacity retention, energy-throughput or cycle conditions. The exact figures for your unit are in the manufacturer's warranty document supplied with your quote. |
| Solar panels | Product and performance warranty per manufacturer | Manufacturer / Australian importer | Panel product and performance (degradation) terms vary by make and model. Your quote names the manufacturer, model, both warranty terms and the degradation conditions that apply. |
| Other equipment | As stated in your quote | Manufacturer / Australian importer | Racking, optimisers, EV chargers, heat pumps, monitoring and switchgear carry the manufacturer's own warranty, listed in your quote pack. |
How warranties work in practice
Start with us
You do not have to chase a manufacturer. Where you have rights against us as the retailer under the Australian Consumer Law, you can exercise them with us directly. We will diagnose the fault, deal with the manufacturer where a product claim is needed, and carry out the remedy.
What we do on a workmanship claim
Within a reasonable period we will inspect the equipment or works, repair or rectify defective workmanship, replace affected equipment where reasonably required, and re-perform the relevant works where reasonably necessary.
Australian manufacturer and importer contacts
For every major product we supply, your quote or warranty schedule includes the Australian manufacturer, importer, authorised representative or distributor — name, address, phone, email and website — so you can pursue a manufacturer warranty or consumer guarantee even if you cannot reach us. Providing those details does not reduce or transfer our obligations to you.
Documentation you receive
Before installation we provide or make available the manufacturer warranty documentation for all major equipment: panel product and performance warranties, inverter warranty, battery warranty including capacity, cycle or throughput terms, and warranties for other significant equipment.
Make a warranty claim
Call 1300 404 510 or email admin@sunquestsolar.net. Have your address, install date and — if you can — a photo of the fault, the inverter screen or the monitoring app error. We acknowledge claims as soon as reasonably practicable and keep you updated in writing.
