Servicing
Professional servicing, repair and upgrade
A service you can depend on
Supported by qualified and trained engineers
If you have a problem with one of our systems, we'll get someone out to you as soon as possible to get you back up and running.
​
We will repair and maintain any sized solar system. Solar panels have warrantied lives of 25 years but the other components such as the inverters are considerably less. If you are unfortunate to have a problem with your system please give us a ring.
We might even be able to help you get back up and running, free of cost, with a chat over the phone. If not we will advise on a cost to visit the array and produce a report. If parts need replacing we will quote you a fixed price to amend any problems found.
Future proof systems
We ensure you stay ahead of the competition
Time moves fast in the world of solar PV and it maybe that there are better products now on the market than there were when your system was fitted. This again is mostly to do with the inverters.
​
A typical system is fitted with the panels running in strings. This is fully acceptable but it does have a few problems. A panel shaded by 10% can loose up to 60% of its output. If this happens then the rest of the string will also operate at this level. This could happen for a number of reasons, a tree has grown in front of the array, a new building or something as simple as the local pigeons have adopted your roof to mess up. Fortunately there is a simple way to help.
​
SolarEdge make an inverter that works with a small box called an optimiser that is fitted to every panel. These optimisers allow each and every panel to work on its own. The result is a more efficient system which has the added benefit of being able to be monitored on your own computer. It is brilliant, but be warned, you could become a bore at the dinner party.
Preventative maintenance
Hassle free preventative maintenance for your PV system
Ensure your solar PV systems run efficiently all year round with our annual preventative maintenance plan. Regular maintenance helps to ensure your solar panels work efficiently, helping you to gain maximum value from your investment in renewable energy. In addition, an annual maintenance plan can help increase the longevity of your solar panel system, helping to prevent unexpected issues.
The service plan comes with an annual health check which includes:
-
Visual check of modules from ground level (check for slipped modules, damage, soiling etc).
-
Visual check of inverter where safe access (check for indication of fault or damage).
-
Recorded generation is increasing.
-
AC & DC isolators (Functional check, damage and ingress).
-
Integrity of fuses and surge protectors where present.
-
Inverter(s) ventilated (Unobstructed airflow, fans operating etc).
-
AC voltage at inverter(s) and assess risk of over-voltage.
-
Test DC circuits.
-
All labelling & signage present and correct (Including system schematic).
-
String insulation resistance test.
-
Complete electrical testing of the solar panels and strings (DC electrical installation test and inspection).
-
Complete electrical testing of the inverters, isolators, and protective devices (AC electrical installation test and inspection).
