Solar panels in Ferny Hills, installed properly
A family solar company that measures your roof, explains the numbers and installs it right the first time.
Why Ferny Hills homes choose RS Energy for solar panels
Plenty of companies sell solar on price alone. We sell it on quality, because a system that is designed and installed well keeps paying you back for decades. Every Ferny Hills quote starts with a free measure of your roof.
A typical 6.6kW system in Ferny Hills makes about 27.7kWh a day on average across the year, while a 10kW system makes about 42kWh. Ferny Hills is on the Energex network. Most homes can export up to 5kW per phase on a standard connection, and newer dynamic connections allow more. We size your inverter to get the most from those limits and lodge the Energex application for you.
North Brisbane and Moreton Bay run from Albany Creek and Strathpine through North Lakes and Narangba to Caboolture and Bribie Island, taking in the Redcliffe Peninsula and acreage around Samford and Dayboro.

Ferny Hills: a local snapshot
Schools tell the growth story here. Ferny Way State School opened in January 1970 and took the Ferny Hills name in 1973, and Patricks Road State School followed in 1977. For years the Australian Woolshed, a farm and wildlife attraction, was a local drawcard. It operated until 2006, was then knocked down, and its land became the Woolshed Grove housing estate.
Samford Road runs through this Hills District suburb, about 16 kilometres north-west of the city. Houses fill the eastern side, while the western part falls within Samford Conservation Park, so bush is never far away. Two state primary schools serve families, at Illuta Avenue and Patricks Road, and older kids head to Ferny Grove State High School next door.

Solar panels in Ferny Hills: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
Call 0449 942 735How much does solar cost in Ferny Hills?
Most Ferny Hills homes pay between $4,800 and $7,000 for a quality 6.6kW system and $7,400 to $11,000 for 10kW, after the federal rebate. We give you a fixed price after a free on-site measure, so there are no surprises on install day.
What size solar system do I need in Ferny Hills?
Look at your bill. Most families using 20 to 30kWh a day suit 6.6kW to 10kW. If you run pool pumps, ducted air or an EV, or plan to add a battery, 10kW to 13kW usually makes more sense. Energex export limits also shape the right inverter size.
Is solar still worth it with low feed-in tariffs?
Yes, if the system is sized for self-use. Every kWh you use from your panels saves you the full retail rate, which is far more than the few cents you get for exporting. Running dishwashers, pool pumps and hot water in the middle of the day makes a big difference, and a battery stretches it into the evening.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are done in a single day. We book the install once your network approval comes back, then arrange the meter change with your retailer.
Do you install solar on tile, tin and Klip-Lok roofs in Ferny Hills?
Yes. We install on concrete and terracotta tiles, corrugated iron, Colorbond and Klip-Lok, with tilt frames where a flat roof needs them.
Do you service Ferny Hills 4055 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. Ferny Hills is part of our North Brisbane & Moreton Bay service area in the City of Moreton Bay area, and we regularly work in Ferny Grove, Bunya, Arana Hills, Keperra. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
