Honest and simple, built on a real partnership
SolarGuide is an independent referral partner of Alumo, one of South Africa’s leading solar installers. We help you compare options and get a free, no-obligation quote from Alumo.
From first quote to switch-on
Free quote & credit check
Share your average electricity bill and what you want to power. You get a free quote with your rent-to-own, subscription and outright options, and no obligation.
Free site assessment
A technician visits to check your roof, orientation, shading and DB board, so the system is designed around your actual home rather than a guess.
Custom design & proposal
Your panels, inverter and battery are sized to your usage, with a clear proposal and final pricing you can compare.
Contracting
You choose your payment option and sign. Rent-to-own and subscription plans include maintenance and insurance.
Installation & commissioning
An accredited in-house team installs cleanly — usually in a day or two for a home — commissions the system and handles the compliance paperwork.
Support & maintenance
You switch on and start saving, backed by warranties, free annual maintenance and 24/7 after-sales support.
Installed by experts, supported for years
The quote is only the start. What matters is who installs the system and who stands behind it.
In-house teams, no outsourcing
Your installation is done by the installer’s own accredited teams, which is why the workmanship is guaranteed for 3 years.
Tier-one technology
Carefully chosen, well-tested equipment from names like Sunsynk, AlphaESS, Solis, Trina and Jinko, backed by 10-year product warranties.
End-to-end support, 24/7
From the first site visit to years of after-care, a support team is available 365 days a year, plus DIY troubleshooting resources.
