SOLAR PANEL WARRANTY
A solar panel comes with two warranties: a performance warranty and an equipment guarantee. The performance warranty for a solar panel will normally guarantee 90 percent production after 10 years and 80 percent after 25 years. A normal equipment warranty will guarantee 10-12 years without failure.
A solar panel’s product warranty insurance protects you against problems such as manufacturing flaws, environmental difficulties, premature wear and tear, and so on. If you own your solar panel system, like with most warranties, a longer time is often more favorable to you. The two most significant elements to consider when assessing a solar panel warranty and its manufacturer are:
- Warranty on the product (or materials)
- The guarantee on performance
You’ll probably start thinking about your solar panel warranty when you’re getting ready to invest in solar panels. Because solar panels include no moving parts, they require little maintenance or repair over the course of the system’s life. Your solar panels will most likely provide energy without issue for decades.
THE LIFESPAN OF SOLAR PANEL
Solar panels are designed to endure for more than 25 years. In fact, many solar panels installed as early as the 1980s are still operating at full capacity. Not only are solar panels remarkably reliable, but solar panel longevity has increased dramatically over the last 20 years. In addition to decades of effective performance, many solar manufacturers back their products with performance guarantees in their warranties.
Keep in mind that the predicted solar panel life expectancy does not imply that the panels on your roof will cease providing power after a few decades. It simply means that their energy production will be reduced by the amount that solar panel manufacturers deem ideal for meeting the energy demands of the ordinary American family.
TIPS TO MAKE YOUR SOLAR PANELS LAST LONGER
Solar panels have the advantage of requiring very little maintenance. Unless your location is especially prone to dust, dirt, pollen, or sand, regular solar panel cleaning is often unnecessary.
While solar panels normally require little maintenance, it is still necessary to examine and monitor their functioning from time to time. Here are a few pointers to make sure your solar installation is performing at its best:
