How often should I service my solar system?

It’s recommended to get a full professional service every 1 to 2 years to ensure safety and performance, especially if your system includes batteries.

What’s included in your maintenance service?

We check solar panels, inverter, batteries, wiring, mounting hardware, safety switches, and overall system output. You also receive a full performance report.

Can I charge my car using solar energy?

You can use a soft brush or hose to remove dirt. However, for safety and efficiency, we recommend professional cleaning, especially if panels are difficult to access.

Does maintenance affect my warranty?

Yes. Most manufacturer warranties require regular servicing by accredited professionals to remain valid. Skipping maintenance could void your coverage.

How do I know if my system needs servicing?

If your electricity bills are unexpectedly high, your inverter shows error lights, or your panels look dirty or damaged—these are signs it’s time for a service.
