Cleaning solar panels
We are often asked about cleaning solar panels as they can accumulate dirt over time which can reduce the efficiency of sunlight capture and ultimately reduce the amount of electricity generated by your system.
Solar panel maintenance and monitoring
The solar panel system has two main components; the roof mounting and panels, and the inverter(s). The solar panels and roof mounting are exposed to the elements of the Australian climate with wind exerting pressure on the mechanical integrity of the PV system, and the rain impacting both the panels electrical string connections and the roof seals under the mounting system
Our preventative solar panel maintenance plan is designed to help you achieve and maximize your solar PV investment return, and to help with your risk management as part of your annual electrical compliance regime. Like the MOT of your vehicles, we recommend annual solar panel maintenance for all commercial PV systems in addition to daily monitoring. Sophisticated solar panel monitoring can automatically prompt any potential generation issues straight away to allow immediate rectification from a maintenance engineer before they become bigger, more expensive problems.
Solar panel service and repair
Without a preventative maintenance plan in place you run the risk of a potential breakdown, requiring the need for an urgent solar panel service or repair to identify the issue and bring your system back online safely. This reactive approach can be expensive and also leave your business without PV generation whilst our team arrive onsite to diagnose/repair the problem.
