About CSA Services

CSA Services provides premium solar power and electrical solutions to homes and businesses around Brisbane, and businesses across Australia’s eastern states.

Maximising the Potential of Solar Power

CSA Services is a Brisbane-based, family-owned business offering expert and innovative energy management solutions.

The business was formed by electrician and electrical engineer Paul Jones and his wife Catherine in 2007, after they witnessed first-hand the rapidly increasing demand for solar power technology in sun-drenched Queensland.

Knowing the difference solar panels could make to energy bills, Paul initially set out to establish Brisbane’s most reliable, knowledgeable and skilled team of solar installation experts.

CSA Services has installed solar power for over 5,000 Brisbane homes and has become the go-to solar power solutions providers for major companies, including:

IKEA
the University of Queensland
Energex.

We work with businesses in Queensland, New South Wales, the ACT and Victoria, to deliver exceptional customer care, backed by genuine business relationships and industry expertise.

Our Clients

CSA Services is proud to have worked with major companies across the eastern states of Australia.

CSA Services have recently delivered almost 500 kW of rooftop PV for UQ. We’ve been continually impressed
by the quality of their workmanship, their attention to detail, and the value add they bring to every project,
above and beyond what we see from most contractors. Undertaking works within the university environment
with over 30,000 people on campus every day is no easy task, but the team at CSA have been flawless.

Andrew Wilson

Manager Energy & Sustainability, University of Queensland

CSA Services came to see me the day I requested a quote. I believe they took the time to properly understand what I was trying to achieve with my system. They came when they said they would to do the install. The install was neat and tidy and they left no mess. I was fully informed of what was going on. The remote monitoring system is excellent. They came without my needing to ask, to replace a DC Optimizer that had stopped communicating. They accommodated my request and arranged a firmware upgrade so I could access per phase power measurements in my inverter via Modbus-TCP – although this caused some hiccups they patiently resolved the issues.
Very happy!

Ian Turner

IBIS Computer Pty Ltd

We had CSA Services install 93 solar panels on the roof 18 months ago. Our electricity bill went from $1000+ per month to being in credit by more than $1900.
We are extremely happy with CSA Services. The installation was hassle free with no down time to our business. Any questions are always answered promptly. We can see our usage at a glance with the monitoring.
All in all I would highly recommend CSA Services for your solar needs.

How much do solar panels cost?

What is solar power?

Solar power systems work by converting light from the sun into energy, which is then used to power your home or is exported to the grid. Using the sun’s rays, panels on your roof generate what’s known as DC (Direct Current) electricity. This is fed into an inverter, which is converted into AC (Alternating Current) electricity which is used to power your home.

Current technology allows us to use solar power to power our homes and businesses. Many buildings use a combination of solar and ‘grid-based’ electricity to reduce the cost of their energy bills and to minimise environmental impact.

How much money will solar power save my home or business?

Some properties notice savings of hundreds of dollars very soon after panels are installed. The amount of money you save will depend on how your home or business uses electricity and at what times of day power is used.

When we install your system, we will share advice on how you can leverage the technology for the best results.

When will I see return on investment?

The timeframe for return on investment from solar panels can vary. However, we will provide an estimate when we assess your home or business.

Should I purchase a battery for my home?

Home batteries store the energy generated by the sun for use after dark. At present, many families find the price of this technology to be limiting. However, these prices are expected to drop in the near future so it is a great idea to start thinking about being battery-ready. Contact CSA Services to find out more about this technology.

How do I know I can rely on CSA Services?

There are many second-rate solar power installation companies which sell inferior quality products. When you contact CSA Services, you will notice you are not directed to an overseas call centre as we are completely locally based. Our company employs fully accredited solar power installers so you can rest assured you are receiving the best quality products, installed by qualified technicians.

How long does it take to install solar panels?

Solar panels can be installed on a residential property in as little as one day. For a commercial property, project times vary depending on requirements.

Is solar power right for my home or business?

Solar power has the potential to save your home or business hundreds to thousands of dollars per year while also improving property value and reducing your property’s impact on the environment. CSA Services will conduct an inspection to determine if solar power is right for your property and how you can maximise the benefits of this technology.
