Solar PV panels require minimal maintenance to ensure they keep working properly and producing solar energy for your home. The most common type of maintenance required for your panels is cleaning. Dirt and debris can collect on your panels, especially during storms or extended periods without rainfall. Occasional cleaning can remove this debris and ensure that your solar panels get the optimal amount of sunlight.
Its also a great idea to watch your generation meter and keep records, watch for any outage or low results may be an indication that something is not right.
Solar panels come with warranties in which the manufacturer guarantees that your panels will last for a certain number of years. Warranties often last between 10 and 20 years, but some are as long as 25 years. First, these warranties guarantee that your solar panels won’t fall below a certain performance level.
A good MCS accredited Solar PV Installation will need a service at about 5-10 years however, if you notice that the panels are not producing or the production has gone down alot further than usual for the time of year you will need to call Mr Solar 01603 394104 or 01493 289118.
