Solar Power Inverter – Lifespan and Maintenance.

Solar panels are not the only component that you should be researching about while considering installing a solar rooftop at your property. Solar power inverters play an equally important role in a solar system; they convert the electricity your solar panels create into a form that can be used by the appliances, lighting, and other electronics that run on electricity (Inverter converts Direct Current to Alternate Current). Carbontrack concludes, the solar inverter works as a middleman, and without it, the power collected by the panels would be worthless. Thus, it is important to purchase all the solar system components with careful research.

What is a solar inverter?

How long will my solar inverter last?

Solar panels usually last for 25-30 years and thus prove to be a worthwhile investment in the long-term. But how long do solar inverters last? Solar Inverters usually come with the warranty of 10-15 years. That is because they genuinely have a lot of work to do. There are different types of inverters available in the market and each have a different lifespan based on their usage. Your solar provider shall provide you the quote based on your property specifications for the same. According to an article published by PV Australia, micro inverters have a higher life span than the string inverters. Inverters might go dead at the end of their warranty times and it might be the time to replace them. However, inverter replacing can be avoided by installing the quality inverters and scheduling its maintenance. CEC recommends the list of approved inverters that can be installed at your property based on the Australian standards and conditions.

What about maintenance?

Maintenance is the key to the long lasting solar systems. Solar investment will continue to reap you benefits, if it is monitored well. Nowadays, inverters usually come with smart technology helping you track your solar system’s performance or any other errors on the inverter, through an app. If your inverter is under warranty, any of the faults in it shall be serviced with a minimum to free amount. It is recommended to install the inverters away from the direct sunlight, in a cool and dry space with some air circulation. Scheduling your inverter servicing every 3-5 years is necessary to make sure everything is running well.
