Annual Solar Maintenance

All systems that we install are monitored for free for the first year, after which our clients are strongly encouraged to engage with our Annual Solar Maintenance Program. This entails cleaning of panels, ensuring the proper workings of all breakers, safety equipment and electrical connections in the system, as well as remote system monitoring and firmware updates as required.

Just as one would service a hard-working vehicle, it is essential for the proper and safe workings of hard-working Solar equipment to have this annual service done too, to ensure that your investment operates optimally, to provide the quickest payback of your solar system investment. As part of the program, we will provide you with all the data you require to determine how you can best make changes, usually additions, to optimize your system even further.

Performance Monitoring

In our experience of living off-grid ourselves, we know by first-hand experience, what it takes to build a robust, reliable solar system. We know how important it is to be able to monitor the performance of every detail of the solar system, in realtime. This way, we can also tell from data analysis, what and where to locate any issues, making troubleshooting easy and leading to very few issues with system downtime.

Firmware Updates

The Victron VRM online platform is extremely robust, user-friendly and allows virtually full remote control of most of the equipment. Part of our Maintenance program would be to keep equipment firmware up to date, also easily done remotely.
