Why Contact Your Installer First

At MPV Solar, we want our customers to enjoy the full benefits of their solar investment while ensuring long-term performance and warranty protection. One crucial aspect often overlooked is the proper removal and reinstallation of solar panels.

Always Contact Your Professional Installer

If you need to remove your solar panels, whether for maintenance, upgrades, or repairs, it’s essential to reach out to your original installer first. Professional solar installers have the expertise and specialised tools to safely and correctly handle panel removal and reinstallation.

Why Is This So Important?

Avoid Damage: Proper removal prevents damage to your panels, inverter, and mounting system.
Ensure Safety: Handling solar equipment without proper training can be dangerous, experts know how to work safely at heights and with electrical components.
Preserve Warranty: Incorrect removal or reinstallation can void your system warranty. Manufacturers specify procedures for removing panels, and deviations from these procedures can lead to future warranty issues.

Why Professional Assistance Matters

Your solar investment is valuable. To maintain its performance and ensure warranty coverage, always contact your professional solar installer before removing or reinstalling your panels. They will ensure the work is done correctly, safely, and in accordance with warranty requirements.
