Local Service

Now that more solar PV is being installed by many others entering the solar electric field, it is even more important to have a high quality installation and local service utilizing advanced troubleshooting techniques, if needed .  We have recently had our first request by another company's customer to repair another solar installer's system.  The original solar installer refused to repair his system.   The electrical box on the roof had water inside and the metal parts inside were corroding.   A few more years and an electrical failure was immanent.  Also, the stainless steel hardware was installed incorrectly and the only method of removal is to destroy the hardware and replace with new.    Because of this, the repair went from a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand dollars.  Solar PV systems are not too complicated but please seek out competent people with the proper credentials.  Installing it correctly will make it last 25 years plus while keeping it serviceable and safe.  Please make sure that your solar company is NABCEP Certified.  This guarantees a high level of competency and understanding by the person working on your system.   NABCEP certified people have been instrumental in educating electricians and electrical inspectors into the safe and correct ways of installing solar PV.
