What We Design Around In Big Bay
Salt Spray On Panels & Mounting
Big Bay’s constant onshore wind carries salt spray that accelerates corrosion on mounting rails, connectors and inverter enclosures faster than inland suburbs, so we use corrosion-resistant hardware.
Unshaded Coastal Roofs
Big Bay’s newer homes typically have open, unshaded roofs facing the Atlantic, which means strong solar yield but also higher wind-load requirements on panel mounting.
New-Build Homes, Larger Systems
Recently built double-storey Big Bay homes often want a full-home system from the outset rather than a small backup setup, so we size inverters and battery banks accordingly.
Solar Installation Built For Big Bay’s Coastal Exposure
Big Bay’s fully exposed Atlantic position means strong, consistent solar yield, but the same wind and salt spray that makes the suburb popular also accelerates corrosion on mounting hardware and inverter enclosures faster than in sheltered suburbs. We use corrosion-resistant fixings and rate panel mounting for the higher wind loads this coastline sees.
Sizing Your Big Bay System
Most Big Bay homes are recently built with larger roofs and higher electrical loads than older Cape Town housing stock, so we typically size systems to cover more of the home rather than just backup essentials.
Compliance & Registration
We handle the City of Cape Town’s SSEG registration and Notice of Completion as part of every Big Bay installation, so your system is fully compliant and grid-registered from day one.

We Don't Just Install — We Maintain
At Thermo Group, our relationship with our Big Bay clients doesn’t end at installation.
We offer ongoing solar maintenance and fault-finding for Big Bay properties, helping catch issues from local conditions before they affect your system’s performance. Our team can assist with panel cleaning, inverter servicing, battery health checks and general system maintenance.
Regular checks help identify potential problems before they cause an outage or affect your system’s output.
SSEG & City of Cape Town Registration
Installing a solar system is only part of the process. Where required, your system must also be properly documented and registered with the City of Cape Town.
Thermo Group can assist clients with the SSEG application and registration process, helping ensure that the required documentation, electrical compliance requirements and system information are correctly dealt with.
Our goal is to make the process as straightforward as possible for the property owner.
