verify mounting after freeze–thaw and high winds.
2
Inverter & monitoring diagnostics:
confirm firmware, alerts, and real-time production accuracy.
5
Shading & performance scan:
identify snow shadowing, tree growth, or string imbalance.
3
Module cleaning (streak-free):
remove dust, pollen, ash, and bird droppings that reduce yield.
6
Safety audit:
verify labeling, rapid-shutdown devices, and roof access pathways.
Built for Edmonton conditions:
1
Winter recovery:
post-snow cleanup and rechecks after chinooks and freeze–thaw cycles.
2
Smoke/dust seasons:
mid-summer washes to recover production lost to haze.
3
Warranty-safe methods:
manufacturer-approved procedures to protect coverage.
How Regular Servicing Solar Panels Protects Your Investment
Edmonton’s freeze–thaw cycles, summer smoke, and gusty chinooks can quietly sap output and stress hardware. With our solar panel services in Edmonton, we focus on the few actions that reliably preserve efficiency and keep warranties intact—clean optics, verified electronics, secure racking, and documented compliance—so you see steadier kWh and long-term system health.
-
Cleaner glass, higher yield: We remove dust, pollen, and haze so more light reaches the cells.
-
Inverter & electrical checks: Firmware and connection tests catch silent faults before they cut production.
-
Racking torque & waterproofing: Fastener and flashing verification helps preserve roof and equipment warranties.
-
Photo reports & logs: Time-stamped documentation supports warranty claims and shows post-service gains.
Seasonal Solar Panel Care for Alberta’s Climate
Edmonton’s seasons are tough on arrays, so our maintenance plans prioritize the right care at the right time—protecting efficiency and warranties without risking your roof or modules.
-
Winter (Snow removal): We recommend letting sun and tilt shed light, dry snow when safe; if manual clearing is needed, use a soft, non-abrasive roof-safe snow rake from the ground or a secured harness—never metal shovels, ice melt, or hot water. We verify racking torque and check critter/snow guards after storms and chinooks.
-
Spring (Post-thaw inspection): Freeze–thaw can loosen fasteners and flashing. We re-torque hardware, inspect wiring and junctions, reseat clips, clear gutters near conduits, and run an IV/production check to baseline summer output.
-
Summer (Cleaning & heat checks): Wildfire smoke and dust create light-blocking film. We perform deionized-water, low-pressure cleaning, confirm inverter ventilation, scan for hotspots, and ensure monitoring accuracy during peak irradiance.
-
Fall (Pre-winter prep): We trim encroaching branches for low-sun angles, check roof penetrations, label visibility, and confirm rapid-shutdown devices—so the array is ready for snow load and wind events.
Emergency Repairs & Troubleshooting
Emergency Repairs & Troubleshooting
Inverter & electronics faults:
Error-code triage, firmware checks, rapid shutdown testing, and manufacturer RMA support when needed.
Production loss diagnostics:
String mapping, IV/production comparisons, and shading/soiling assessments to pinpoint underperforming modules.
Racking/roof & wiring repairs:
Re-torque hardware, reseal flashings, replace MC4 connectors, tidy cabling, and verify grounding for safety.
Animal & weather damage:
Inspect for nibbed wires, nests, hail or wind impacts; retrofit critter guards to prevent repeat issues.
