Solar panels in Jamboree Heights, installed properly
A family solar company that measures your roof, explains the numbers and installs it right the first time.
Why Jamboree Heights 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 Jamboree Heights quote starts with a free measure of your roof.
A typical 6.6kW system in Jamboree Heights makes about 27.7kWh a day on average across the year, while a 10kW system makes about 42kWh. Jamboree Heights 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.

Jamboree Heights: a local snapshot
Scouts camped here for the 8th Australian Scout Jamboree over the summer of 1967 and 1968, and the Queensland Place Names Board named the suburb after the event in July 1969. Before that it was Wolston Estate farmland, put up for auction in 1901, then folded into Hooker's Centenary Project. Jamboree Heights State School opened in January 1974.
It is a small, mostly residential suburb of 1.2 square kilometres and about 3,140 people, 16.2 km south-west of the CBD. Mount Ommaney Shopping Centre sits on its northern edge. Guide Street has Jamboree Park and a small shopping strip, and police, fire and ambulance stations are all within the suburb. The TS Vengeance naval cadet unit is based on Moolanda Street.

Solar panels in Jamboree Heights: 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 Jamboree Heights?
Most Jamboree Heights 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 Jamboree Heights?
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 Jamboree Heights?
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 Jamboree Heights 4074 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. Jamboree Heights is part of our Brisbane Westside service area in the Brisbane City Council area, and we regularly work in Sumner, Middle Park, Mount Ommaney, Westlake. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
