Commercial Solar Maintenance

Maintaining your Solar PV system is vital to optimal performance and maximum energy production.

Solar energy systems we install are designed to last at least 30 years, and have the advantage of using products supplied by reputable manufacturers. Remote system monitoring and regular maintenance visits will insure against potential losses in performance and protect your solar investment and financial return.

If you have already invested in a solar system we can protect your investment by ensuring faults are quickly identified and resolved, maximising your returns.

Our maintenance packages for commercial sized systems are available to existing Solar Voltaics customers and to those that have had their system installed by other companies. Inquire now and make sure your solar PV system is safe and working efficiently. Have peace of mind that if anything should go wrong we are only a phone call away.

Annual Solar Maintenance plan

Solar PV systems are very reliable, but like most technologies, they still need to be maintained to ensure maximum output efficiency.

Sign up for an annual maintenance plan including a free inspection visit every year and ensure your system is safe, clean and producing its maximum potential generation. Callouts and the first half hour on site are free throughout  the year if your system develops a fault (travel costs for IOW  may apply).

Our annual health check includes:

• Visual inspection of system
• Assess for shade issues occurring since installation/previous health check
• Ventilation space under panels is not obstructed
• Roof condition visual inspection
• PV module string tests
• Isolation resistance checks
• Generation power output check
• Inverter system checks & error log messages
• Junction box, isolator, distribution board and cabling inspection
• Meter check & comparison to previous year
• Labelling/schematic check

You will receive a solar maintenance report after the health check, together with any recommendations. If repair work is required, we will provide a no-obligation quote for the work to bring your system back to full health. You will also benefit from 20% off our standard parts and labour rates.

Remote Monitoring – 3 phase meter installation £315 + £85 per year (subject to survey)

Remove the worry of monitoring your system.  If your system fails without you knowing, you could lose many hundreds or even thousands of pounds in lost Feed-In Tariff revenue and energy production. Our remote monitoring allows us to measure your generation output every day and contact you promptly if we detect a fault or loss of power. We will install a replacement generation meter with roaming sim card which transmits your generation data to a central portal where we can monitor performance. We will also complete the paperwork for the meter swap and send it to your Feed-In Tariff licensee. The annual fee covers the cost of the sim contract and the monitoring.

For larger or more complex systems with more than 2 inverters we recommend the installation of more advanced monitoring that will detect malfunctions in each individual inverter or string of panels. This can be important, as it is not always possible to detect a drop in overall system output if for example just one inverter out of eight had failed. We will be happy to quote for a bespoke monitoring system of this type if your system is typically over 50KW.
