At UPS Solar we offer all our customers the opportunity to sign up for our comprehensive solar panel maintenance contract. This covers routine checks and maintenance on all models that we install, as well as advice and guidance for other issues and concerns as they crop up. Using a professional solar panel maintenance service like our will help extend the lifespan of your solar power system by a significant margin.
Due to their very nature and requirement to have direct access to the sun, solar panels need to be placed on a suitable flat, outdoor surface that is exposed to the elements 24/7. This will inevitably cause the panels to be affected by adverse weather conditions, rapid temperature changes and general wear and tear. There is also the risk of elements of the system malfunctioning, or the panels themselves becoming danged through falling debris, vandalism or frost. Regular care and maintenance of solar panels will keep them in good working order and will remove any debris that poses a risk to their structural integrity and efficacy.
Solar panel cleaning is extremely important too, as it keeps the panels free from any dirt or obstacles that could impede the sun’s rays from reaching the PV panels and starting the process of generating electricity. The solar power technology relies on the PV cells in each panel being exposed to as much sunlight as possible, rather than being obscured by dirt. Besides, cleaner panels will keep their overall appearance looking sharper and brighter.
The average expected lifespan of a solar panel is around 20 to 25 years. However, this can be significantly reduced if the panel is allowed to become damaged or excessively dirty due to a lack of maintenance. The cleaner your panels can remain, the more efficiently they will work. Engaging a regular solar panel maintenance and cleaning service to keep your panels looking spick and span will be the best thing you can do to prolong their useful life, keep the panels safe and help them produce the maximum amounts of solar energy possible.
UPS Solar operates a comprehensive maintenance programme for solar power systems anywhere in the UK, which includes a full inspection of the panels themselves, along with the inverters and battery storage systems. Call our team now to discuss our solar panel care provision in greater detail.
An integral part of your solar panel maintenance agreement is the routine inspection that keeps your system in good working order, identifying any damage or problems and putting solar panel system repairs into effect straight away. Regular inspections are a very important part of the maintenance of solar panels on roof tops for both domestic and commercial set-ups.
Inspecting and maintaining the electrical elements of your solar panel system is also included in our comprehensive maintenance contract. After all, it’s no good having beautifully clean panels in good repair and positioned for optimum efficiency if the electrics that convert the solar power into energy are not functioning correctly.
USP Solar has many years’ solid experience in maintaining and cleaning solar panels across the UK. We work closely with our customers to ensure that they are satisfied with our services and that the commercial solar panel maintenance cost is worthy of the quality service we provide.
If your solar panel system needs a good clean, or you wish to set up a regular maintenance contract arrangement, give our solar panel customer care number a call to set up an appointment for our engineers to visit. We look forward to working with you soon.
UPS Solar can install a wide range of solar power PV panels ranging from 2KW to 6kW solar PV systems with and without battery solutions.
Solar panels can be installed at any time of the year. Some homeowners prefer installing during spring or summer when there is more sunlight, but installations during other seasons are common as well.
The installation timeline depends on various factors, including the size of the system and the complexity of the installation. On average, residential solar panel installations can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.
Yes, solar panels can be installed during the winter months. Modern solar technology is designed to function efficiently in cold temperatures, and installation can take place as long as weather conditions permit safe work.
While solar panels are low-maintenance, periodic checks are recommended to ensure optimal performance. UPS Solar provides maintenance services to keep your solar panel system running efficiently.
Solar panels are becoming more efficient and affordable, investing in solar panels for your home makes financial and environmental sense. High electricity rates make solar panels cost-effective, and incentives like tax credits can cut upfront expenses. Solar panels boost home value and promote sustainability by reducing reliance on traditional energy.
Solar panels typically have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years. During this period, they generally maintain at least 80% of their initial power output. The longevity can be influenced by factors such as manufacturing quality, environmental conditions, and maintenance.
Solar panels can be damaged by various factors. Common causes include extreme weather conditions like hail, strong winds, or heavy snow. Environmental factors such as bird droppings, dirt, and debris can also impact performance. Physical damage during installation or maintenance is another risk. Additionally, electrical issues like overvoltage or lightning strikes can harm the panels. Regular inspections, prompt maintenance, and installing protective measures, such as anti-reflective coatings or bird deterrents, can mitigate these risks and ensure the longevity of your solar panel system.
Keeping your solar panels clean is crucial for optimal performance. Dust, dirt, bird droppings, and other debris can accumulate on the panels, reducing their efficiency. Regular cleaning helps maximise sunlight absorption and energy production. In areas with less rainfall, manual cleaning may be necessary, while in rainier regions, natural cleaning can occur.
