FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I turn on my solar before inspection?

It’s generally recommended to leave the solar system in its current operating state before the inspection. Turning the system on or off without guidance may affect safety or inspection accuracy.

How often should solar panels be inspected?

Solar panels should typically be inspected every few years, after major weather events, or before buying or selling a property. Inspections are also recommended if you notice a drop in system performance or plan to perform roof repairs or upgrades.

How to inspect solar panels with thermal imaging?

Thermal imaging is used to identify temperature variations across solar panels that may indicate electrical faults, failing cells, or performance irregularities. This non-invasive method helps detect issues that are not visible to the naked eye and supports a more thorough evaluation of system health.

When to inspect larger solar installations?

Larger solar installations should be inspected before purchase, after installation, during routine maintenance intervals, or whenever performance decreases. This ensures system safety, efficiency, and long-term reliability for higher-capacity systems.

Do I need inspection for non grid-tied small solar?

Yes. Even non-grid-tied or small solar systems should be inspected to confirm proper installation, electrical safety, and secure mounting. An inspection helps reduce fire risks, equipment failure, and performance issues.
