FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Solar Maintenance FAQs

How often should I have my solar system professionally maintained?

We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year for most residential systems. Commercial systems or those in areas with heavy pollen, dust, wildfire smoke, or bird activity may benefit from service 2-4 times per year.

Can't I just clean the panels myself?

While simple hosing can help, professional cleaning uses specialized equipment and purified water that leaves no residue. Additionally, working on rooftop systems without proper safety equipment poses significant risks. Our maintenance also includes electrical inspections that identify issues beyond just dirty panels.

How much does professional solar maintenance cost?

Our maintenance plans start at $250 for basic residential systems. The exact cost depends on system size, roof complexity, and service frequency. Many customers find that increased production after maintenance pays for the service within months.

Does my monitoring app tell me everything I need to know about my system's health?

No. Most monitoring systems only track overall production. They can miss panel-level issues, gradual efficiency losses, and many electrical problems. Professional inspection catches problems your monitoring won't detect.

What are signs that my solar system needs maintenance?

Decreased energy production, higher than expected utility bills, error messages on your inverter, or monitoring system alerts are all signs your system may need professional attention.

Do you service systems that weren't installed by Sunrise Solar?

Absolutely! We provide maintenance for all major solar brands and system types, regardless of the original installer.

What if you find a problem during maintenance?

We document all issues with photos and provide a detailed report with recommended repairs. If repairs are needed, we provide transparent pricing and can often complete the work during the same visit.

How quickly can you respond to solar system problems?

For systems under our maintenance plans, we prioritize service calls and typically respond within 24-72 hours. Emergency service is also available for critical issues.
