Solar System Maintenance
Regular solar PV cleaning and servicing to ensure continuous maximum solar output and repair potential faults before it becomes hazardous.
Dust, leaves, bird droppings, air pollution... anything that likes a flat shiny surface will accumulate on your solar panels over time, greatly decreasing the performance of your system. Addressing these issues on a regular basis will enable you to maximise the yield of your investment. Quality Energy's solar maintenance experts will thoroughly inspect, clean and maintain your solar system to pick up potential issues before they become a major concern.

Why Clean and Check Your Solar Panels?
Setting and forgetting your commercial solar PV system can lead to as much as a 40% reduction in the output of your array, vastly diminishing your return on investment. Since a large majority of your system is open to the elements, it is imperative that it be regularly cleaned and inspected by an experienced electrician.
Three key reasons for cleaning and checking your solar panels:
- Performance: Keeping your system regularly maintained guarantees your Solar System’s performance to remain at optimal levels
- Warranty: Did you know all systems can come with manufacturer warranties that have clauses to maintain your system to avoid voiding your warranty? With better performance, you will see better returns and, in turn, lower electricity costs.
- Safety:
Constant operation throughout the day puts a strain on all of the electrical elements of your solar panels and inverters. For safety reasons and to prevent inconvenient and expensive breakdowns, a regular service is required for optimum efficiency and peace of mind.
What to expect from Solar Power System Maintenance?
Quality Energy's expert electricians will thoroughly inspect these components of your solar power system:
Panels
By determining the age of your system and examining panels for wear and tear, we can hold manufacturers to their warranties if there are any faults or defects. Picking up issues early will aid in preserving the system's longevity and ensures peak performance long after the installation.
Inverters
Quality Energy’s engineers will analyse your inverters to determine if they are running efficiently.
Cabling & Isolators
We inspect all cabling and isolators to make sure they’re in a safe condition, clear of potential water ingress and are operating correctly.
Racking
This is a relatively simple component but an extremely important one: the integrity of the racking is crucial in maintaining the safety of your panels and of course, your roof. Inadequate installations could easily result in a hefty repair bill.
Overall Performance
Our team will run a performance diagnostics to determine the overall output of your system. If required, we will suggest how to improve your solar system's functionality.
