Solar repairs and inverter replacement in Currumbin
Inverter showing an error, or your bill suddenly jumped? We find the fault, fix it and tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes sense.
Why Currumbin homes choose RS Energy for repairs & upgrades
Inverters are the hardest working part of a solar system and most last 10 to 15 years. When one fails, your panels keep sitting in the sun but you get nothing from them. Many Currumbin homes also have systems that were installed by companies no longer around.
We test the array, inverter, isolators and wiring, then give you a clear written report. If replacement makes more sense, we will quote a like-for-like inverter or a hybrid inverter that is ready for a battery.
The southern Gold Coast stretches from Coolangatta and the beaches of Palm Beach and Burleigh back to Robina, Mudgeeraba and the valleys of Currumbin and Tallebudgera, with everything from beachfront units to acreage. Our repairs & upgrades work in Currumbin also covers neighbouring Tugun, Palm Beach and Currumbin Waters, all within about 3km.
- Being close to the water, Currumbin gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.

Currumbin: a local snapshot
Samuel William Grey was the first European to take up land here, and clearing started in the late 1800s. Subdivisions were advertised from 1904, the first hotel went up in 1910 and the Thrower Drive Bridge opened in 1926. Many houses still date from the 1920s subdivisions. The name comes from the Yugambeh word Garambin, meaning quicksand or a type of pine, and this is Tulgigin clan land.

Repairs & upgrades in Currumbin: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
Call 0449 942 735How do I know if my solar system is faulty?
Common signs are an inverter showing a red light or error code, a blank screen during the day, a power bill that jumps without a change in usage, or monitoring that shows zero output on a sunny day.
Do you fix systems you did not install?
Yes. A lot of our repair work in Currumbin is on systems from companies that have since closed. We work on all mainstream brands.
Should I repair or replace my inverter?
If the inverter is under warranty, we will help you claim it. If it is over 10 years old and out of warranty, replacing it is usually better value than repairing, and it is a good moment to consider a battery-ready hybrid.
How often should solar panels be checked?
Every two to three years is a good rule, or sooner near the coast where salt air is harder on fixings and isolators.
Do you service Currumbin 4223 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. Currumbin is part of our Southern Gold Coast service area in the City of Gold Coast area, and we regularly work in Tugun, Palm Beach, Currumbin Waters, Elanora. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
