The solar industry has boomed over the years, offering homeowners a path to energy independence and environmental responsibility. However, with any growing market, there can be bumps along the road. Some solar installation companies have faced business difficulties and have closed their doors, leaving some homeowners with existing solar systems uncertain about what will happen to their warranties and who will service their system now that their installer is gone.
Here at Paradise Energy, we understand the anxiety this situation can cause. This guide will equip you with the knowledge and resources to navigate this situation effectively.
It's understandable to feel overwhelmed when faced with the closure of your solar installer. However, it's important to remember that your solar panels are still a valuable asset capable of generating clean energy and saving you money on your electricity bills. With the right information and support, you can successfully navigate this situation and ensure the continued performance of your solar system.
The following sections will guide you through the steps you can take to protect your investment and maintain your solar system's efficiency.
The first step is to locate all your solar system paperwork. This should include:
Having this information readily available will be helpful when moving forward. Consider creating a dedicated file or folder to keep these documents organized.
Warranties:
One major concern for homeowners may be the validity of their warranties. Fortunately, most warranties for solar panels and inverters come directly from the manufacturer, not the installer. This means even if your original installer is no longer in business, your warranty coverage should remain intact.
Actionable Step:
Contact the manufacturer of your solar panels and inverter directly. They can verify your warranty coverage and answer any questions you may have regarding the claims process. We recommend referring to the warranty documents you collected and referencing the model numbers of your equipment.
Maintenance & Service:
Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal solar system performance. Don't let the installer closure disrupt this vital step of your solar journey! Regular cleaning, performance monitoring, and potential repairs are all essential for ensuring your system continues to generate its maximum energy output.
Financing:
If you financed your solar system through a loan or lease, it's important to understand your ongoing obligations. Your loan servicer or lessor may have questions or require updates due to the installer closure.
Actionable Step:
Contact your loan servicer or lessor directly. They can clarify your standing and obligations in the wake of the installer closure. Having a copy of your loan or lease agreement on hand will be helpful during this conversation.
