For those with Solar Panels
This morning I received a call. "Is that Mr Fullchat?"
"Yes" says I.
A female announced that she was working on behalf of a company who were aware that I had solar panels and that it was over 11 years since I'd had them installed. They had not been inspected in order to maintain the 25 year panel warranty. Also that the company that installed them were no longer in existence.
It was a somewhat stilted conversation as I was getting the feeling that this was another call, of a few we get, trying to flog something else related to solar. There seems to be a solar customer database that's accessible to chancers.
To my knowledge the panels had a 10 year warranty and the inverter had 7 years. So both are well out now.
The call was finished after I'd informed them that I'd had an electrician check them over and they were fine. (Fib :0 ).
I then went and checked my paperwork and it seems that there is a Product Warranty of 10 years and then a Power Guarantee of 10 years at 90% and 20 years at 80%.
How you ascertain degradation I'm not sure.
Any thoughts from the panel?
