Full scorecardmarks the better value on rows where a higher number is better. Temperature coefficient counts as higher when it is closer to zero. Size measures such as rated power carry no marker, because a larger product is a different choice rather than a better one.

| Certifications | The current CER inverter export checked 4 October 2026 lists exact S6-GR1P3K-S, S6-GR1P3.6K-S, S6-GR1P4K-S, S6-GR1P4.6K-S, S6-GR1P5K-S and S6-GR1P6K-S with the AS4777-2 2020 suffix under Ginlong Technologies Co Ltd, approved 1 September 2023 and expiring 15 November 2026. This replaces the older 16 October observation; renewal beyond 15 November remains unverified., The exact Australian datasheet publishes AS/NZS 4777.2:2020 and IEC 62109-1/-2 compliance. | The CER approved inverter list, last modified 2 October 2026 and read on 7 October 2026, lists exact H3-Pro-15.0 (AS4777-2 2020) at 15 kW, approved 21 January 2026 and expiring 21 January 2029., The current Australian datasheet and manual identify H3-Pro-15.0 as a three-phase storage inverter. |
| Warranty scope | Five-year standard limited warranty plus a further five years for eligible units purchased from 1 January 2024 when registered and kept connected to SolisCloud, subject to the published terms. Section A of the terms makes the Solis Limited Warranty conditional on SolisCloud registration, maintained connection, and installation and maintenance by SAA, SEANZ or New Zealand equivalent accredited technicians. | The Australian and New Zealand warranty policy, Version 4.0 dated 1 April 2026, expressly names H3-Pro-15.0. The standard term is 120 months from installation, capped at 132 months after manufacture. Conditional service-rebate and transport provisions do not establish unrestricted labour or freight cover. |
| Warranty remedy | Repair, replacement, refund or credit at Solis's option. | FoxESS may repair onsite or at a service centre, or replace with the closest current product. |
| Labour and reinstallation | Removal and installation labour are excluded unless separately agreed. Removal and reinstallation are excluded unless separately agreed. | An installer service rebate may be approved, but its amount and eligible work are not stated; travel, onsite installation, modification and maintenance are excluded. Unrestricted removal and reinstallation cover is not stated. |
| Freight | Transport is excluded unless separately agreed. | Eligible road transport to one specified address may be provided; express and onward shipping are excluded. |
| Transfer and registration | Section G.1 of the Solis Limited Warranty terms (Version Solis-20240802-GL) provides, subject to Section G.2, that the warranty is provided only to the owner of the product and is not transferrable without the written approval of Ginlong Solis. Section G.2 provides that the warranty is transferrable and a claim may be made where the claimant is able to provide ownership and a copy of proof of purchase and, if applicable, proof of payment for the Extended Limited Warranty. The further five years require SolisCloud; paid 10, 15 and 20-year options are available. | No automatic subsequent-owner transfer right is stated. Version 4.0 prints no separate registration section. The FoxPlus clause applies if the product is registered on the FoxESS website within 36 months of manufacture, and cross-refers to section 8, which in this version is the claim process. No registration condition is stated for the 120-month standard term. |
| Grid/network approval evidence | Single-phase Australian grid-tied family with AS/NZS 4777.2:2020 compliance. | Three-phase Australian identity. CER product listing does not establish DNSP, site, export-limit, installation or commissioning approval. |

| Review note | Solis Australasia publishes the cited exact family datasheet, manual, certificates and local support contacts. The current CER inverter export checked 4 October 2026 lists all six exact S6-GR1P-S rows through 15 November 2026; recheck before that date. Other S6-GR1P K03, S6-EH3P and S6-EH1P product families are separate identities. This approval-only review does not refresh the manufacturer documents, warranty or whole-market verification date. | FoxESS Australia publishes the exact product family and support materials. External switching and battery requirements remain outside this independent inverter record. |
| Register: parts term | Not in the structured register | stated: The exact H3-Pro family receives 120 months from installation, no later than 132 months after manufacture, whichever occurs first. |
| Register: labour and service | Not in the structured register | conditional: FoxESS may repair onsite or at a service centre, replace the product, and approve an installer service rebate. The rebate amount and eligible work are not stated, while travel, onsite installation, modification and maintenance are excluded. |
| Register: transport and freight | Not in the structured register | conditional: Eligible road transport to one specified address may be provided. Express freight and onward shipping are excluded. |
| Register: registration | Not in the structured register | conditional: Registration is recommended for the standard term and required for FoxPlus. The policy's FoxPlus wording also refers to a 72-month standard period, which conflicts with the exact 120-month H3-Pro table. |
| Register: transferability | Not in the structured register | not stated: The policy defines purchaser, installer and end-user roles but does not state an automatic subsequent-owner transfer right. |
| Register: explicit unknowns | Not in the structured register | 4 retained |

These checks sit beside the benchmark score. They are site, tariff and contract questions that no product score can settle.
Ask for every model number to appear on the quote and order. The Clean Energy Council product lists are live: STC creation requires listed products at installation, and network requirements may also depend on current approval.
Have the retailer state the supply phase, inverter connection limit, export limit and any export-control cost. The local network connection agreement, not a generic datasheet, determines those settings. See the Australian Government's connection guidance.
Ask which bills or interval data, tariff, feed-in rate, export limit and future loads support the savings and payback claim. Self-consumed electricity and tariff timing usually matter more than a headline feed-in rate. See the system sizing and battery savings guidance.
Confirm the proposed inverter phase, PV input design, battery pairing and export-control configuration against the final connection agreement. A suitable product can still require a different site design or control setting.
Keep the retailer, installer, manufacturer warranty and escalation path in the contract. Australian Consumer Law guarantees apply separately from any manufacturer warranty; where one business supplied both product and installation, it is generally responsible for the remedy. See the ACCC guidance.
