Understand your solar system
Arrange a check of your existing system.

You do not need to wait for a complete system failure before having your solar PV installation looked at. A health check can be useful if you have inherited a system with a property, have noticed a gradual performance change or simply want a clearer picture of an installation that has been operating for years.
An independent technician inspects the relevant accessible parts of the system, considers its operating behaviour and highlights issues that may need attention. A health check is not about inventing work; it is about understanding the condition of the installation and identifying sensible priorities.

Existing solar systems can continue operating even when something is not quite right. An inspection can help distinguish normal ageing from faults that deserve attention.
If solar panels were already installed when you bought the property, a health check can help you understand what you have and whether anything obvious needs attention.
Where output appears to have declined, an inspection can identify whether further fault finding is justified.
Older systems can benefit from periodic attention to their general condition, particularly where no one has looked at them for years.
A check can highlight visible or operational concerns before they develop into a more disruptive failure.

Health checks are aimed at installations that have already spent years in service.
Observations explained without burying the useful information in technical language.
The focus is on what actually deserves attention, and on keeping serviceable equipment working.
A health check can be a sensible starting point when you have an existing solar system but little information about its condition.
Free — no obligations

You will be asked about its age, known history and any changes you have noticed.
Relevant accessible components and system condition are reviewed.
Where information is available, operating behaviour can help identify possible concerns.
The technician tells you what appears satisfactory and what, if anything, deserves further attention.
