FAQ’S

How often should solar panels be cleaned up?2021-09-17T14:31:40+10:00

To make sure your solar panels operate to their optimum capacity, we recommend cleaning them a few times a year. With proper maintenance, you can prolong your system’s lifespan, allowing you to enjoy an efficient system for the years to come.

So how do I know if my solar system needs to be serviced?2021-09-17T14:31:40+10:00

Below are some of the things you need to know to identify if your solar system must be serviced.

  • Was your system installed more than three years ago?
  • Is your system performing as well as you would expect?
  • Has the company that supplied it gone out of business?
  • Would you like to expand or upgrade the system?

Do solar panels require regular maintenance?2021-09-17T14:31:40+10:00

Solar panels only require little to no maintenance. However, because they are installed outdoor, you need to do a periodic check-up and cleaning to remove dirt, leaves and other elements that are obstructing sun rays.

What is the cost of the product or service?2021-09-17T14:31:40+10:00

The industry standard lifespan for solar panels is between 25 and 30 years. Nonetheless, their lifespan can reduce if they are subjected to high wind, debris, and other things that may cause physical damage.

Typically, solar panel repair costs can range from $194 to $1,245, depending on what needs to be repaired and the severity of the damage. To give you an idea about the cost of solar panel repair, below are the estimated budget:

What causes micro-cracks or hot spots to panel glass cells?2021-09-17T14:31:41+10:00
  1. Bad handling during shipment and delivery
  2. Production of the modules (usually it is during the manufacturing).
  3. Dramatic changes in temperature, hail storms, and lighting.
But can PV solar panels be repaired?2021-09-17T14:31:41+10:00

Similar to other components, solar panels can be repaired. There are cracks and hot spots in the panel glass cells that can only be seen through a microscope. Solar panels can still operate despite the cracks, but this could affect their efficiency and effectiveness in the long run. If this happened, you could reach out to the team who installed your solar system, or you can call solar repair experts near you.

Do solar panels get damaged quickly?2021-09-17T14:31:42+10:00

No, solar panels are designed to withstand harsh weather and heavy thrashings from exterior elements. They can even last up to 3 decades if you use and maintain them properly.

What is a solar PV System?2021-09-17T14:31:42+10:00

A solar photovoltaic (PV) system comprises solar panels combined with other electrical and mechanical hardware that utilise the sun’s energy to generate electricity. From 1kW to 1MW and above – we have the skills, expertise and wealth of experience to ensure we meet your energy requirements.

So, why do you have to repair your solar panels?2021-09-17T14:31:42+10:00

Solar panels are built from solar cells and enclosed with high-quality and durable glass, which protect them. With proper care, solar panels can last up to 30 years; however, they can potentially get damaged in the long run because they are exposed to harsh weather conditions.

Elements like harsh weather, hail storms, leaves, twigs and dust are some of the factors that can damage your solar panels.

Because solar panels are investments, you want to make sure you protect them. Regular maintenance is one of the most preventative measures you can take to protect your solar panels. Other things that you can do are:

  1. Removing twigs, debris and dust around your solar panels
  2. Build retaining walls around your solar panels if they are installed in the ground
  3. Resealing – Sealing on panels can wear out over time. To protect your panels, make sure to check the sealing and do some resealing if needed. You can also ask for help from solar experts if required. We’re here to help you!
  4. Install lightning rods. The rods can protect your solar panels from strikes.
  5. If you’ve installed your solar panels on the ground, you may need to switch to solar PV.

I had solar panels installed many years ago; how do I know if they are still working efficiently?2021-09-17T14:31:43+10:00

If you’re not a solar expert, you’ll never even know if your panels are still working efficiently. However, here are some signs your solar panels aren’t working as they used to:

  • Lower electrical output – write down your solar panels’ performance in the beginning when their performance is at peak levels. The next time you check, a significant drop in the output might indicate a problem.
  • Visual inspection – did you notice visible damage on a panel? Is there some debris causing blockages? If so, remove it, and you might see improved performance.
  • Age – it’s normal to expect some performance drop as the panels age.If you have solar systems installed a long time ago and need trustworthy solar panel installers to check or maintain them, give us a call on 02 9567 5886.
Are solar panels maintenance-free?2021-09-17T14:31:43+10:00

Yes. In fact, solar panels require little maintenance. However, in order to maintain its durability and function, there is a need for periodic light cleaning using a small cloth and cleaning agents without strong chemicals.

Do solar panels work at night?2021-09-17T14:31:44+10:00

If you mean to ask whether solar panels continue to store energy at night, then the answer is no. However, it is now easier than ever to store the energy your solar panels produce during the day. This can be easily done using batteries. These batteries are becoming more affordable and accessible each year, with the reduction in prices and increased competition from manufacturers.

Can a house run on solar power alone?2021-09-17T14:31:44+10:00

While running on solar power alone is definitely doable, there are a few factors to consider. First of all, you’ll need to determine how much energy is used by you each day. You will also have to assess some limiting factors for the property, including the space available in your house for solar panels. You’ll need to understand how much sun your house gets each year and shading on your property. You will also need to be mindful of how there might be a possibility of people living in your house increasing in the coming months or years. As long as you’ve done your maths right, it is definitely a possibility to run a house solely on solar power.

How long will solar panels last?2021-09-17T14:31:44+10:00

Solar panels can last up to 20-25 years if well-taken care of. That is why it is also important to maintain your solar panels.

How many solar panels would it take to power a house?2021-09-17T14:31:44+10:00

This depends on the electricity usage of your household. A large, six bedroom house will obviously use much more electricity than a one bedroom bungalow. So, the more electricity you use, the more solar panels you’ll need. Here’s a rough estimate of how many solar panels will be enough for your electricity usage:

Household Size Annual Electricity Usage Number of Solar Panels
1 person 850kWh 4
2 people 1,700kWh 8
3 people 2,550kWh 12
4 people 3,400kWh 16

Above is just an estimation. However, to get a more accurate idea, you’ll need to follow a bit of maths. This is not something too complicated, so don’t worry. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Calculate the daily electricity usage in your house
  2. Work out the daily sunshine hours you get on average
  3. Using the sunshine hours, calculate the daily electricity output from the solar panels
  4. Divide the electricity output of the solar panels by the daily usage

Still finding it difficult? Not to worry! Give us a call at 02 9567 5886 and our team will be more than happy to help figure this out for you.

Are solar panels more energy-efficient?2021-09-17T14:31:45+10:00

How does solar work?2021-09-17T14:31:45+10:00

Here’s a short overview of how solar works. Solar power works by producing electricity from the sun’s light. The electricity produced by solar can be utilized to any home, and can also be exported to the grid. The energy stored in the grid can then be fed into a solar inverter that converts the DC electricity from the solar panels into AC (Alternating Current) electricity.

What are solar panels?2021-09-17T14:36:58+10:00

Standard installation of solar systems usually lasts between 1 to 3 days. However, there can be several factors that can affect the duration of the installation.

One of these factors includes the type and size of the solar panel that will be installed. Naturally, the larger and more complex solar panel takes more time.

In addition, the installation process can also take longer if the property requires an upgrade to fit the solar system requirements. If roofing and electrical system works are involved, the installation can last for a couple of weeks upto a month.

The weather could also be another factor that will affect the duration of the installation.

Quality Installation

Quality installation from Roland and his team. Really professional outfit. Very responsive at the quotation stage, patient with all the questions we had. No surprises during installation – of the six companies we contacted for quotes only Roland went out on roof to eyeball the installation site. He gave us exactly what we wanted.
