Pease Pottage sits at about 145 m above sea level. The climate in Pease Pottage averages 11.3°C a year, with January around 4.9°C and July near 17.5°C. The area gets around 903 mm of rain per year.
Walk the roof line and look for straight rails and even gaps between panels. Check that cable runs are clipped, not loose. Ask for a system test report showing open-circuit voltage and output per string. Panels should sit 100 mm to 150 mm above the roof for airflow.
A standard 6 to 10 panel residential system takes 1 to 3 days on the roof. Wiring, inverter setup, and grid inspection add 2 to 6 weeks of waiting because the local utility must approve the connection. Total project time from contract to switch-on is often 4 to 8 weeks.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Improper grounding, undersized DC cables, panels mounted in heavy shade, or rails not sealed correctly lead to long-term problems. Loose MC4 connectors cause arcs. Mixing different panel brands on one string lowers output. Poor roof flashing is the most common source of leaks after installation.
A standard home system with 10 to 15 panels takes 2 to 4 days of on-site work. Most of the time goes into mounting rails, not the panels themselves. Grid connection and inspection add another 1 to 3 weeks. Weather delays can stretch the total timeline.
Compare panel brand, inverter type, mounting brand, and warranty length, not just the total price. A cheap quote often skips better rails or surge protection. Ask each firm for the same panel count and orientation so the comparison is fair. Read the small print before signing.
