Great news! You’ve taken the plunge to become energy independent with the installation of solar panels at your home in Leominster, but do you know how to look after them? You may now be thinking, how often should I clean them? Do they need assessments? Do my solar panels need servicing?
ElectricsFixed are Leominster’s solar panels experts with advice and guidance on how to keep your solar panels working efficiently.
How to look after your solar panels after installation
Although solar panels require very little maintenance after their initial installation, there are still some steps you should take to ensure they are working to their full potential. This includes regular inspections and cleaning. To understand how to clean your solar panels, you should follow the manufacturer’s instructions. If in doubt, contact a professional.
Do Solar Panels Need Servicing?
Unlike many household appliances, solar panels are strong and built to withstand all weathers, including rain and winds. This means that they require very little attention after installation and are designed to be low maintenance. However, it is advised to get your solar panels serviced at least every 5 years to ensure they are working efficiently. If you are noticing faults or damage with your solar panels, then servicing should be carried out sooner or on a more regular basis.
Can I do my own solar panel maintenance?
When carrying out maintenance on your solar panels, it’s best to leave it to the professionals. Not only is it dangerous to be working high up without experience, you may also cause more damage to your solar panel system if you are inexperienced. This could also cause your warranty to become invalid, costing you more in the long run to replace your system.
By hiring a qualified solar panel expert, you can be sure to know your solar panels are performing to their best ability.
How long will my solar panels last?
With regular care and maintenance, solar panels are expected to last up to 25 years without any drop in their performance. Without regular inspections, damage and faults can be missed, leading to your solar panels needing to be replaced sooner, driving your financial outlay up. If you want your solar panels to last a long time, get in touch with ElectricsFixed in Leominster today. We will inspect your panels, take out necessary repairs and will certify that your solar panels are functioning at their optimal output.
