What Is Solar System Maintenance?

A properly designed and installed PV solar system can deliver fault-free operation for several years. Solar panels are relatively low-maintenance and require little attention to continue producing solar energy.

Typically rainfall and wind will naturally clean your panels for you. However, over longer dry periods in summer, your panels may require light cleaning to ensure dirt, leaves, and other debris aren’t obstructing the sun’s rays.

Like any other hardware, performing routine upkeep and inspection of the system components will help guarantee its performance and reduce disruptions due to component failure. Regular system maintenance includes a system check and panel clean.

It is important to know that all kinds of maintenance and repair work should only be carried out by qualified solar installers. The team at JFK Electrical, Solar & Air are experienced in conducting regular maintenance checks and system repairs across the Peel region. You can trust our team to safely carry out any solar maintenance tasks to improve the lifespan and performance of your solar system.

If your solar system is due for regular maintenance or isn’t performing to its usual standard, give the expert team at JFK Electrical, Solar & Air a call today to book a system check.

We just had a replacement solar system and JFK were superb from start to finish. Questions answered really well which gave us the confidence to proceed. We did have three other quotes but JFK just stood out that little bit more. The tradespeople involved were courteous and helpful even allowing us to clean the roof before installation. Follow ups with phone conversations and required paperwork were seamless. It is good to feel confident in a process that you are not an expert in, and JFK made us feel that way at every stage.

Having just moved to Mandurah we were keen to source a team of trades that we could engage to assist us now, in our new home and also in the future when issues arise . We were very impressed with the prompt response and focussed communication with the JFK office from John and Amy . We were then fortunate to have Dave undertake our electrical work over two visits . Dave is an extraordinary tradesman . His expert command of his trade knowledge was outstanding and the speed of the work undertaken was exhausting to watch ! His work ethic was accompanied by professional preparation , he asked clear questions to ascertain our requirements, he was very conscious of safety , he simultaneously provided supervision and teaching of the young apprentices , checked with us at each stage of the completed work and carefully cleaned up following all the jobs. Dave was polite at all times and we hope we get to use his services again and your firm in the future . Thank you all for your efforts . You certainly made our tradies list and we will recommend you to others 👍 Stana and Dennis Couzic

When To Service Your Solar System

At JFK Electrical, Solar & Air, we suggest you book an annual inspection of your solar system to maintain strong levels of performance and efficiency. However, there are some instances where you should book an additional one-off inspection for your Mandurah solar panel set-up. 

If you notice any unexpected changes in your solar system’s production, either through the monitoring system or your electricity bill, this may suggest it requires maintenance. You should also book an immediate inspection if your solar system generates any warnings or alerts. 

When buying a property with an existing solar system in place, you should always book an initial inspection before moving in. This will ensure that there are no faults or neglect from the previous owner. 

During periods of extreme weather that may cause tree branches to fall or extra debris to build up, you may also consider booking an additional inspection to ensure this hasn’t caused any damage or disruption to your solar system. 

For any of your solar system servicing needs, you can trust the team at JFK Electrical, Solar & Air. Whether you need an annual inspection or you just have a query regarding the maintenance of your solar system, our team is always available to help. Don’t hesitate to give us a call whenever you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

JFK's service truck and van

What can affect the amount of energy my solar system generates?

There are many factors that affect how much electricity your solar panels can generate. Some of these cannot be controlled by yourself or your solar technician, including 

  • Your latitude and location 
  • The season or time of year 
  • Cloud cover and other weather factors 
  • The time of day 

However, some variables can be controlled, including:

  • The quality of your solar panels and inverter 
  • How clean your solar panels are 
  • Shade covering your solar panels

How long will my grid connected PV Solar system last?

The lifespan of your solar panel system will mostly be determined by the quality of its parts, as well as how well the system is maintained. Solar panels built more than 30 years ago are still supplying power in Australia today, so you can expect your new solar system to last for decades. 

Over time, you will experience some decline in energy production – for instance, after 15 years, a lower level of efficiency can be expected as the panel dulls and reflects more light.

At JFK Electrical, Solar & Air, all of our solar panels come with a 25-year output warranty. You can expect the more sensitive electronic parts, like inverters, to last around 10 to 15 years, but these can be replaced as needed without installing a whole new panel system.
