SUNNY ROO INVERTER WARRANTY

SUNNY ROO INVERTER WARRANTY

So a few years ago you thought you would put  a solar power system on your home and you thought that getting the cheapest quote possible was the way to go, so off you went and went with the cheapest quote that sat on your on the kitchen table, the beyond building energy quote. Well, didn’t that turn out to you bite you on the bum?

What a Struggling inverter the Sunny Roo 5000TL turned out to be! Have you been SunnyRooted?

Beyond Building Energy – Sunny Roo inverter

So along came beyond building energy, a few weeks later and installed your system complete with a sunny roo inverter. You had now been sunny rooted!

Let me clarify what it means by saying that you have been sunny rooted – your sunny roo inverter now no longer has a warranty. It’s a boat anchor, and probably a very good one at that. Your SR 5000TL is dead!

Replacement and Repair – Sunny Roo Inverter Warranty

This inverter was doomed from the beginning, a terrible inverter with a solar installation company who had entire interest in the inverter, and also the warranty with that. Beyond building Energy actually owned sunny roo inverters.

So you’ve stumbled across this page in search of sunny roo inverter warranty. Well, I’m going to now tell you that no such sunny roo inverter warranty exists, the sunny roo inverter warranty disappeared the same time that the beyond building energy when out of business.

The good news is you have a solar sytem on your roof of your house now for at least three years and it’s been working well. Up until now.

The generous feed in tariffs that the government were dishing out back then and  unbelievably cheap prices that beyond building energy were selling the solar systems for means that, all the more likely your system has well and truly paid for itself. Now that’s a good thing. DO NOT REPAIR YOUR SUNNY ROO inverter, you will continue to waste money!

Beyond Building energy receivership

The thing is that now you have a dead sunny roo inverter with no warranty, and this sunny roo inverter will need replacing. This is going to cost you money.

The good news is that Queensland solar lighting can replace your dead sunny roo inverter. We can replace it with a quality Chinese inverter inverter, such as a JFY inverter or perhaps this time around you want to do it the entire opposite way of how you first did it, and get the best inverter in the market, a German SMA inverter. Either way that this is done, you are surely going to end up with a better result than having beyond building energy go out of business on you and at the same time forfeit your inverter warranty.

Every week we get a few calls from  beyond building energy customers calling us up and asking if we fix sunny roo inverters or if we have a suitable replacement inverter for them and their system.

We are  always happy to help these customers who’ve been burnt in the past, we will show them how to operate their new and far superior inverter. We show them how to troubleshoot and identify any problems that may arise in the future.

We really want all our customers to feel that they really understand what a solar inverter is, what it can do further them, how to operate it, how it operates and why it is important that it is always working for them.

is your Sunny roo inverter not turning on too?

There are a few clever people around out there who are fixing the sunny roo inverters that have died. However, while these people can easily fix the inverters, the inverters are also prone to breaking again. Then you guessed it, under no warranty. This is the reason it is best just to replace the whole inverter, get a proper inverter and do it properly from the beginning.

Replacement inverter price list

if you need to replace your sunny roo inverter because it is faulty and not turning on, the below price list applies to you if you live in Brisbane or Gold Coast.

Inverters that we install come with a five year warranty minimum. These inverters warranty is backed by Queensland solar and lighting and also the solar inverter manufacturer’s warranty.

  1. Dr. Mylvaganam

    I have a Sunnyroo 2000 inverter that has gone up to 9999kwh and then started displaying a strange reading. I U nderstand that this counter has to be reset to record readings in KWhs. Would someone be able to advise me on to reset the KWh counter on this inverter, please?

    Thanks

    1. Hi
      Public knowledge to be spread because this asshole who was running the company beyond building Vince Smith who decided to close it’s door due to faulty products and taxes owed to ATO , also is owner of Watt test , this company is based in exactly the same address as Beyond building . Now what this company does is offer third party insurance lol , which advises people they are Nata accredited and so forth , they have people calling them unaware who they are to fix there inverters and this moron charges you for it . My point is that they charge you for the faulty inverters they supplied you in the first place so i would be spreading the word that beyond building ex director Vince Smith is behind Watt test do not trust them as far as u can throw them . He lives at 13 Queens Anne court Sovereign island, if you call watt test he will answer the phone as brian or Lee

  2. I’ve had a Sunny Roo SRP3000TL for over 4 years. I don’t know if this has had anything to do with its longevity, but I had an Elko SOU-1 DIN rail sundown sensor installed between the mains power and the circuit breaker for the unit. (Hugomuller also make an equivalent “Paladin”). It turns on before the sun hits the solar array, and turns off about 15 minutes after the sunny Roo shuts down in the evening. The reason I had this installed is because the inverter was using about 150 watts per hour during the night, when it was supposed to be off.

  3. I have also a Sunnyroo 2000 inverter that has gone up to 9999kwh and then started displaying a strange reading. I U nderstand that this counter has to be reset to record readings in KWhs. Would someone be able to advise me on to reset the KWh counter on this inverter, please?
