Workmanship warranty statement

Unlike most installers, we don’t think the job’s over once the installation is done. It’s our after-care support that sets us apart, and gives you peace of mind for years to come. Without limiting your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), we offer a “25 Year Workmanship Guarantee” - our warranty for any defects in the work carried out by our qualified installation technicians. As a family-run business, we believe in treating our customers like family. We won’t sell you more than you need. We’re fully transparent. And we’ll still look after your system, years after its installed because we’re here for the long-term.

This express warranty applies to any new 1KOMMA5° Australia customer who has installed a solar solution from 1 August 2024.

OR any new Arkana Energy, now trading as 1KOMMA5° Australia, customer who has installed a solar solution from 1 May 2021.

The 25-year workmanship express warranty covers and defects in the work carried out by our qualified installation technicians. It does not cover system componentry or manufactured product, the performance of the panel, inverter or battery. These will be covered by a separate product warranty.

Where the workmanship express warranty does apply, 1KOMMA5° Australia, at our discretion, will either repair or replace any fault caused by workmanship with a comparable product or solution so that the workmanship component is no longer faulty.

Workmanship claims in respect of our express warranty exclude:

• any loss or damage caused by improper use of the product or service;

• works on the product or service that was conducted by a third party other than Arkana Energy or our subcontractors;

• misuse of the product or service, modification or relocation of the product or service by a third party other than 1KOMMA5° Australia or our subcontractors;

• accidental or unintentional damage caused by a third party other than 1KOMMA5° Australia or our subcontractors;

• damage as a result of any natural disaster including but not limited to flood, pest damage, power outage(s), dwelling movement, lightening; and/or

• a failure to promptly (within 60 days) notify 1KOMMA5° Australia of the defects

If the consumer warranties under the ACL apply to the services we provide, these warranties will also apply in addition to our 25-year workmanship warranty:

Claims made under the ACL will only have the limits and exclusions allowed by law.

Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the ACL.
