Everything you Need to Know About Solar Maintenance Services

Solar PV plants are a great investment that can provide you with affordable, renewable solar energy for 25 years or more. But, a key question is, how do you maintain them? Are solar panels like your car, requiring regular tune-ups to stay in peak condition? Or, are you supposed to just install them and sit back worry-free?

First and foremost, it is recommended that you perform solar panel cleaning between 2-4 times a year. They generally require very little maintenance, however, the only thing they need is a periodic light cleaning to make sure dirt, leaves, and other debris aren't obstructing the sun's rays. During heavy rainfall, they require more extensive solar maintenance services as rain can hinder solar panels' performance.

Now, back to our key question, how do you maintain a solar PV plant? You're in luck if your panels are tilted since rain will actually wash any buildup of debris off of them. However, it's crucial to physically clean them during the dry season. The good news is that while that might sound like a lot, it doesn't take much labour to do this. Your panels will be clean and in excellent shape with just a simple spray from a yard hose or a leaf blower.

Also, in case your panels need to be repaired or replaced, it’s best to hire a professional. If they are losing efficiency, Mahindra TEQO’s solar maintenance services can help identify the issue and work towards it. Someone will be dispatched to the scene to evaluate the situation and either repair the issue or replace the panels. If there is physical harm to your panels, it is frequently covered by a different equipment guarantee. In order to determine who can best replace those panels, you can consult with us. In either case, unless you have previous experience with residential solar systems, avoid attempting to install solar panels or make repairs yourself.

Overall, it's not too difficult to maintain your solar panels. Your solar PV plant will function well if you quickly clean any accumulated snow, dust, or debris. Make sure the panels you purchase have a solid warranty as well so that if they break, they can be replaced.

If you follow those instructions, your solar panels should keep producing clean, renewable energy at their highest possible efficiency for many years. Just always keep in mind that if you notice a reduction in your energy output, that is the best indicator that your solar panels need maintenance. If you suddenly notice that your solar panels aren't producing as much energy as they normally do and that your electricity bill has gone up, it's a good sign that you should schedule a service appointment for solar maintenance services.
