Work With Your Solar Company
Your solar company may offer maintenance services where they will regularly inspect your system to ensure it works efficiently to meet your energy needs. Some companies also require regular maintenance services to keep warranties valid.
Regardless of whether your solar company offers or requires maintenance services, you can always contact them if you are concerned about how your solar panels are working or if you discover any problems.
Here are a few final reminders.
Life Expectancy
The life expectancy of a solar panel is at least 25 years but could go up to 30 years. With the steps above, your panels could last longer.
Panel Degradation
Solar panel degradation happens slowly and decreases system effectiveness over time, but there are ways to slow down the process.
Increase Lifespan
Increase solar panel lifespan by using high-quality panels, using an experienced installation company, and staying consistent with system maintenance.
