Can share which solar provider you are using and which to avoid and the pricing you have gotten?

Any problem with roof leaking?

Hi can share your provider?

Pathgreen. Quite efficient and organised.

Was comparing alpha and them but chose them in the end even though alpha cheaper.

Totally agree about not choosing the cheapest installer but the one that provide the best service.
The rule if to get multiple company to come quote and meet you and talk and ask question. Then from this process, we customer select the best one .... that we are most comfortable with. Not always the lowest price will be chosen, sometimes is more of how the sales person approach and sell their service and products.

ya. met them face to face before deciding. Some of them dont really know their stuff.

Pathgreen impressed me the most. Sales person was knowledgeable. No hard sell. Gave good after sales package. But i think they could do better in some aspects also if I want to be nit picky.

With new TNB tariff overhaul, those who installed solar might get screwed if solar generation can only knock off the electricity charge and not the network charge/capacity charge.

Will need to wait for official announcement.
