Warranties With Project Solar

Warranties With Project Solar

For most people, going solar is a serious investment, even at our low prices. Expecting the equipment to work for its full lifetime is a basic right of the customer, and we get that. 

From the onset, Project Solar designs your solar project with the best Tier 1 equipment.

Our standard black-on-black, monocrystalline panels are qualified to IEC 61215, an international standard of quality. Inverter-wise, we offer the best of the best: microinverters from Enphase, and string inverters from SolarEdge and Tesla.

We’ve built our warranty system specifically for the long-term protection of your investment. Rest assured, your solar is backed by industry-leading warranties and exceptional service.

 

A Guide to SolarCare™, Project Solar’s Premium Warranty

SolarCare™ is a comprehensive warranty option that provides incredible value without increasing the cost of your project. If you opt for a Full Service Install, SolarCare™ will be included automatically.


Designed for robust, lasting protection, SolarCare™ provides the following:

  • 25-Year Production Guarantee
    When designing your system, we’ll use industry-leading solar mapping software to calculate an annual production minimum for your system. This will also account for panel degradation and adjust for each year.

    This minimum production will be guaranteed for 25 years.

    If your solar system doesn’t produce as promised, we’ll compensate you for the difference. This is one of the most powerful offers in the solar industry. We put our money where our mouth is, creating a legal obligation to overcome the historic mistrust in the solar industry. No more surprises a couple years in. You get what you’re sold, guaranteed.

  • 24/7 System Monitoring
    With cutting-edge inverter technology, your system’s performance can be inspected down to each individual panel. An included monitoring app lets you easily access data and configure your system for different situations, like incoming storms.

    Additionally, SolarCare™ provides round the clock monitoring to ensure your system is functioning the way it should. Any issues will be flagged for service.

  • Price Lock & Cancellation Protection
    Our SolarCare™ Price Lock Guarantee shields you from unexpected cost fluctuations.

    In case of any increases in price and/or scope of work prior to install, you are free to cancel your project without any penalties.

    Project Solar will reimburse you for any deposits that you’ve paid thus far, and any cancellation fees from installers will be waived or refunded. 

  • Transferability  
    Should you decide to sell your home (and, by extension, your solar system), SolarCare is fully transferable.

  • Workmanship Warranty
    Reliable equipment isn’t the only tenet of a successful solar install: ensuring your system is installed correctly and expertly without any damage to your home is just as important.

    With SolarCare™, Project Solar enforces our partnered installers’ 10-year workmanship warranty. This warranty also guarantees that any roof penetrations for your solar installation will be water-tight and leak-free.

    In case of installer nonperformance, Project Solar takes action and responsibility to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.

Equipment Warranties

All our standard equipment (panels, inverters, and racking) is warrantied for 25 years. 

Solar equipment is built to withstand the elements, and we use top-notch brands to ensure any issues are as minimal as possible.


That being said, nothing goes according to plan 100% of the time.

Murphy’s Law states, “anything that can go wrong will go wrong”. In case it does, our equipment warranties are here to safeguard your solar investment.

If you do have an equipment warranty claim, notify Project Solar (if you haven’t already). We’ll be happy to help troubleshoot and identify the issue and/or get you in contact with the appropriate manufacturer.

If you have any concerns throughout the claims process, we’re happy to step in as an advocate for you as needed.

 

Battery Warranties

Project Solar has collaborated with our partners to provide the most well-known names in battery storage: Enphase and Tesla.

Excelling in versatility, scalability, and safety, Enphase offers the best battery warranty available. Their IQ 5P battery is warrantied for 15 years, or 6,000 cycles.

If you’re looking for a higher-powered alternative, however, we offer Tesla’s newest model, the Powerwall 3. The Powerwall includes a built-in inverter and a staggering 13.5kWh of capacity, plus a 10-year warranty–not too shabby, Elon.

Both battery options include user-friendly monitoring apps, which can also configure your system to prepare for incoming storms, expensive grid usage times, and more.

During outages, a backup battery will disconnect your system from the grid to run your home autonomously, all with solar power. 

 

Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Install 

If you’re handy, installing a system yourself can save you even more on your solar system. With Project Solar, you don’t have to compromise on warranty.

We offer the same 25-year equipment warranty for DIY customers as we do for all our other customers. This will cover all your panels, inverters, and racking.

Additionally, if you choose to install a battery with your system, the Enphase IQ 5P (our DIY battery option) includes an unparalleled 15-year/6,000 cycle warranty. 

Since you are providing the labor, we cannot warranty the quality of your work. Our workmanship warranty is designed to cover installations performed by our professional partners, ensuring installs meet our high standards of reliability.

However, we’re committed to providing you with support throughout the installation process. Your success is our top priority, and we’re here to help you every step of the way.



Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs)

Our Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) offering includes our most comprehensive warranty coverage: 

  • 25-Year Equipment & Workmanship Warranty 
    Labor, panels, inverters, racking, and batteries are all covered for the entire 25-year agreement term.

  • Monitoring & Maintenance
    To make sure your system is producing as it should and without issues, PPA projects include 24/7 monitoring. The warranty also covers any maintenance needed throughout the agreement term at no cost to you.

  • Price Lock
    Our no-escalators PPA locks in your rates for the entire agreement term–meaning you can dodge utility rate increases.

  • 25-Year Production Guarantee
    As with Full Service Install projects, your minimum system production will be guaranteed for 25 years–no over-promising from sales reps, or we pay you.
