Solar and Batteries
Alongside air conditioning and electrical work, our own licensed team installs solar for homes. If you are adding air conditioning, it makes sense to think about how you will power it.

Solar
Does Frost Solutions install solar?
Yes. Solar is part of the work our licensed team does, alongside air conditioning and electrical. The installation, wiring and testing are done by Frost Solutions staff, not subcontractors, and we can plan solar together with a new air conditioning system so the two suit each other.
We are an air conditioning and electrical business first, and we keep our solar offer simple. If you want solar on its own, or alongside a new air conditioner, tell us what you are after and we will tell you honestly what we can do for your home.
Our electricians hold QLD Electrical licence 1505904 and NSW Electrical licence 357593C. See electrical services for the rest of our electrical work.
Solar and air conditioning
Is solar worth it if I have air conditioning?
It often pairs well. On the Gold Coast, air conditioning works hardest on hot, sunny afternoons, which is when solar panels produce the most. Running the air conditioner during the day, with sensible set temperatures and zones you are not using switched off, lets it use more of your own solar power.
- Pre-cool the house in the afternoon while the panels are producing, instead of running hard in the evening
- Use zoning, or AirTouch 5 with room sensors, so you only cool the rooms you use
- Choose an efficient, correctly sized inverter system; an oversized system wastes energy whatever powers it
- Check your switchboard has room for both the solar and the air conditioning circuits
How much difference solar makes depends on the size of the system, your roof, your power use and your electricity plan. We look at those before recommending anything.
Batteries
Can I add a battery?
A battery stores solar power you do not use during the day so you can use it in the evening. Whether one suits you depends on your existing solar system, your switchboard, how much power you use after dark and your budget. Ask us about batteries when you enquire, and we will talk you through the options for your home.

Good questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you install solar batteries?
Ask us. Tell us about your current solar system (or plans for one), your switchboard and how you use power, and we will tell you what we can offer for your home.
Can solar run my air conditioning?
During the day, solar panels can supply some or all of the power your air conditioner uses, depending on the size of the solar system, the weather and what else is running. Running the air conditioning while the sun is up, rather than all evening, makes the most of it.
How do you quote solar?
From your address, a photo of your switchboard, your roof and a recent power bill, or from a free site inspection if you prefer. You get a written quote, valid for 21 days.
Are there rebates for solar?
Government incentives for solar and batteries change from time to time. Ask us when we quote and we will tell you what applies to your system.

Couldn't recommend Frost Solutions highly enough. We recently had them install a 16kW Daikin ducted system with 8 outlets, 6 independent zones, AirTouch 5, multiple upgrades and a 5 year service plan. ... Another big positive is that Frost Solutions have their own electrical team as part of the installation. ... the entire experience was seamless.

I have just had a total of 5 aircons fitted up by the boys at Frost. 4x brand new installs to each bedroom, and a new replacement for the lounge. I cannot fault anything. Their communication, punctuality, price and workmanship have all been superb throughout the entire process. Trouble and stress free. Its easy to see why they have so many 5star reviews. True professionals. Thanks again.

Absolutely fantastic experience with Frost Solutions! I recently had a ducted air-conditioning system installed and honestly, from the very first conversation through to the finished installation, the whole process was seamless. ... The installation itself was done to a really high standard, the team worked efficiently and left everything clean and tidy. ... Great people, great communication, great workmanship and a great result.

Frost Solutions installed ducted air conditioning in my home today and I couldn't be happier. The team were professional, friendly, punctual, and down to earth. ... left the house spotless ... I also really appreciated the follow-up call from the office later in the day to check I was completely satisfied ... They're a local business with local staff, and the value was extremely competitive for the quality of service and workmanship provided.

From my initial phone call to the pre-check and installation, all correspondence and actions were clear and understandable (for someone who is non tech savvy).. Shout out to Paul (Senior Technician) ... He was also clear when showing me how to use the air-con, and info on future servicing and cleaning when needed. Thanks Frost Solutions Team, I highly recommend you to anyone needing a new aircon :)

Wow! Frost Solutions is possibly the best all round company I've worked with for a long time. The admin staff, sales and tradesmen-installers were all very polite, efficient and easy to communicate with. From the time I phoned to organise a quote to the full install was only an about a week ...
