So how do you separate the pros from the cowboys? How do you make sure your solar system will actually save you money, not create headaches? Simple—you follow a proven formula and partner with a team that ticks all the boxes.
Enter: Chris Ramsey at Ramselec Solar.
☀️ The Solar Trust Formula: How to Assess Any Installer
Use this easy checklist—S.O.L.A.R.—before signing anything:
S – Standards: Are they CEC Accredited and using Tier 1 products?
O – Online Reviews: What are real customers saying on Google and SolarQuotes?
L – Local Support: Will they show up if something goes wrong?
A – Approachability: Are they transparent and helpful, or pushy and vague?
R – Reputation: Do they have a consistent track record in Melbourne?
Ramselec Solar doesn’t just pass this formula—they set the bar.
