OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
Comprehensive Maintenance for Maximum Performance
While your solar system may include a workmanship warranty of up to 2 years, this coverage does not provide the comprehensive benefits offered by an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) agreement tailored to your solar system's needs.
With an O&M agreement in place, you gain access to a suite of essential services designed to ensure the ongoing performance and reliability of your system.

WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY
comparison
In contrast, a workmanship warranty only covers the installation aspect of your system and requires you to perform all necessary inspections and monitoring.
Any faults detected will incur charges for site visits, with refunds issued only if the issue is related to workmanship.
It is essential to note that while your solar system is professionally designed and installed using tier-1 components, they are still susceptible to electrical faults. Failure to monitor your system's performance and address issues promptly can result in underperformance, impacting your return on investment, carbon reduction targets, and component longevity.
​
Given these considerations, we strongly recommend considering an O&M contract following your solar system installation to ensure its optimal performance and longevity, ultimately maximising your investment's value.
