Every solar installation from Solar Harare is a complete, end-to-end service. You do not need to source equipment separately, hire an electrician, or organise anything beyond approving the quote. Here is what every installation covers.
The 4-Step Installation Process
Solar Harare follows the same four steps on every installation, whether it is a 3kVA backup for a flat in Avondale or a 15kVA commercial system in Msasa. No shortcuts.
Site Survey
Craig visits your property to assess your roof orientation, shading, electrical setup, and energy usage. He measures the available roof space, checks the condition of your existing DB board, and photographs the site for the design phase. This visit is free and takes about 45 minutes.
System Design & Quote
Based on the survey, Craig designs a system matched to your property and your budget. You receive a written quote listing every component: panels, inverter, batteries, wiring, mounting, and installation labour. The price in the quote is the price you pay.
Installation Day
On the agreed date, the installation team arrives with all equipment. Panels are mounted on your roof using appropriate brackets for your roof type. The inverter and batteries are installed in a ventilated, accessible location. All wiring is run neatly with proper cable management.
Testing & Handover
Once the installation is complete, the system is tested under real load conditions. Craig walks you through the inverter display, explains the indicator lights, and answers your questions. You receive written documentation covering your system specifications and maintenance schedule.
Equipment Brands We Install
Solar Harare sources equipment from manufacturers with proven track records in Southern Africa. We do not sell one brand exclusively. We select the best available option for your specific system at the time of your quote.
Solar Panels
Jinko Solar, Canadian Solar, JA Solar. Tier-1 manufacturers with proven performance in high-temperature African climates. 10 to 25 year performance warranties.
Inverters
Deye, Growatt, Sunsynk, Voltronic. Hybrid inverters that handle grid-tie, battery charging, and load shedding switching. 5 to 10 year manufacturer warranties. Widely supported in Zimbabwe.
Batteries
Pylontech LiFePO4 for long life and heat tolerance. Quality gel and lead-acid options where budget requires it. We recommend lithium for Harare's climate, but we give you honest options at every price point.
You see every component in your written quote before you approve. We do not substitute equipment without your agreement.
Why Professional Installation Matters
A solar system is only as good as its installation. Panels wired incorrectly lose output. Batteries connected without proper fusing are a fire risk. Earthing done badly means your surge protection does nothing when lightning hits. Here is what professional installation protects.
Safety
DC wiring carries serious current. Incorrect connections, poor earthing, or missing isolation switches create fire and electrocution risks. Every Solar Harare installation follows proper safety protocols with correctly rated components.
Warranty Protection
Most inverter and battery manufacturers require professional installation for the warranty to remain valid. A DIY installation or an unqualified installer can void your equipment warranty entirely.
System Performance
Panel angle, orientation, and shading assessment directly affect energy output. A poorly positioned array can lose 20% or more of its potential generation. Professional design maximises your return.
Regulatory Compliance
ZERA-compliant installation standards exist for a reason. Proper wiring codes, earthing standards, and electrical safety regulations protect your home and your investment. Every Solar Harare installation meets these standards.
Solar Panel Fitting for Every Property Type
Solar Harare provides solar PV installation for every property type across Harare. From a two-bedroom townhouse in Hatfield that needs a basic 3kVA system to keep the lights and WiFi running during load shedding, to a five-bedroom home in Borrowdale Brooke that requires an 8kVA hybrid system to run the full household, the process is the same: survey, design, quote, install, test, handover.
We also handle solar system installation for businesses. Offices in Avondale, retail units in Eastgate, medical practices in the northern suburbs, and light industrial operations in Msasa all face the same problem: ZESA unreliability costs money every time the power drops. A properly sized commercial solar installation keeps your operation running and reduces your monthly electricity bill.
Whether you need a professional solar installation in Harare for your home or your business, Solar Harare delivers the same standard of work: a proper site survey, a written quote with every component listed, a clean and safe installation, and a system that performs from day one.

What Our Clients Say
“The installation team arrived on time, worked cleanly, and finished before 4pm. Craig walked me through the inverter display and left printed documentation. Two months on, the system is producing more than the estimate.”
Peter N.
Glen Lorne · 5kVA hybrid system
“I compared three quotes. Solar Harare was the only company that listed every single component. I knew exactly what I was paying for. The installation was done in one day and the system worked perfectly from the first power cut.”
