What kind of warranties come with my system?

We provide manufacturer as well as workmanship warranties. 

SEA provides a 10-year workmanship warranty for its installations with a 5 year perfomance guarantee.

Solar systems typically come with product warranties for their solar panels and inverters. Inverters are crucial components responsible for converting DC power from solar panels into AC power used in homes and businesses. These warranties vary depending on the manufacturer and the type of inverter chosen for the system. Smart Energy Answers only deals with best in class inverters which have a significantly higher warranty than the early generation string inverters.

For instance, Enphase IQ Microinverters offer a comprehensive 15-year limited warranty, extendable to 20 or 25 years. These microinverters are renowned for their safety features, seamless integration with smart home devices, and over-the-air software updates, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

On the other hand, SolarEdge Home Hub Inverters provide a 12-year warranty, extendable to 25 years, promising versatility and efficiency. These inverters excel in managing various aspects of home energy, including PV production, backup applications, and EV charging, delivering higher energy production over the system's lifespan.

When evaluating inverter warranties, it's essential to consider factors such as the procedure for claiming warranty, coverage details (including labor costs, parts, shipping, repair, and replacements), duration, extendability options, and void warranty conditions. Understanding these aspects ensures that your solar investment is well-protected and provides peace of mind for the future.

Ultimately, selecting the right inverter and warranty for your solar system involves assessing your energy needs, budget, property specifics, performance efficiency, safety features, additional functionalities, and manufacturer reputation. By making informed decisions in these areas, you can maximize the benefits of your solar investment and secure your energy future effectively.

Solar panels that we install come with 25-30 year warranties.
