What Maintenance Is Required for a Solar System?
Investing in a solar system is a smart choice, but like any asset, it requires regular solar system maintenance to perform at its best. Fortunately, solar systems are low-maintenance, and a little care can go a long way in ensuring efficiency and longevity.
Cleaning the Solar Panels
- Why: Dust, dirt, and bird droppings can block sunlight and reduce the efficiency of your solar energy system. Keeping your solar panels clean ensures they capture maximum sunlight.
- How Often: We recommend cleaning your panels annually or more frequently in dusty areas to maintain optimal performance.
Inspecting the Solar System
- Why: Regular inspections help identify loose wiring, corrosion, or damage to critical components in your solar power system.
- How Often: Conduct monthly visual checks and schedule professional inspections annually for thorough solar system maintenance.
Monitoring Performance with Solar Apps
If you choose an Alpha or Sunsynk system, these options come equipped with monitoring apps to track energy production.
- Why: Monitoring your system helps detect issues early and maintain your system’s performance.
- How Often: Use apps to regularly check the efficiency of your solar energy system and address problems as they arise.
Maintaining Solar Batteries
Batteries are essential for storing excess power and ensuring backup energy. Keeping them in good condition is critical for uninterrupted energy use.
- Why: Well-maintained batteries ensure your solar energy solution runs smoothly during load-shedding or at night.
- How Often: Check battery connections and charge levels as recommended by the manufacturer for reliable performance.
