Older systems lose output after 15 to 20 years. Watch for yellowing panels, loose brackets, or inverter error codes on the display. A sudden drop in your monthly kilowatt-hour reading also suggests a fault. Get a professional test before replacing parts you may not need.
Price depends on panel count, roof height, roof pitch, and bracket type. Tile roofs cost more than metal roofs because tiles must be removed. String inverter versus micro-inverter changes the price. Ask for a line-by-line quote so you can compare offers fairly.
Most panels carry a 25-year performance warranty. Inverters usually last 10 to 12 years. Mounting hardware often has a 10-year product warranty. Ask the installer for a yearly output check during the first 5 years to catch early faults before they grow.
Most residential jobs use 60-cell or 72-cell crystalline silicon panels. Monocrystalline panels have higher efficiency, around 19 to 22 percent, while polycrystalline sit closer to 15 to 18 percent. Thin-film panels are lighter but need more roof space for the same power output.
Falling power output on the inverter display, yellow or brown discoloration on panel surfaces, cracked glass, loose rails after storms, or rust on mounting hardware all signal trouble. Error codes on the inverter, like isolation faults or ground faults, also need a technician visit.
Panel product warranties usually last 10 to 25 years, while performance warranties promise at least 80 to 85 percent output at year 25. Inverter warranties range from 5 to 12 years. Workmanship warranties from the installer typically run 2 to 10 years. Get all terms in writing.
Loose roof brackets cause leaks after heavy rain. Poor sealing around cable entries lets water reach the inverter. Shading from new trees or buildings lowers output fast. Bad wiring trips the breaker under load. Always ask the installer how they prevent each of these issues.
Panels are usually monocrystalline silicon rated 400 W to 500 W each. Inverters come as string, micro, or hybrid types. Rails are aluminium, brackets are stainless steel, and cable is UV-rated double insulated. Your installer should list every part before work begins.
Heavy shade, a north-facing roof blocked by buildings, or a rental with landlord limits can make payback long. Old roofs needing repair soon also raise the cost. Ask the installer for a shade analysis and an estimated yearly output before you sign any contract.
Tile, metal, and asphalt shingle roofs each need different mounting hardware. Tile roofs often require tile replacement brackets. Metal roofs can use clamps without drilling. Flat roofs need tilted frames. Roof pitch, usually between 15 and 40 degrees, also changes mounting time and parts.
