Solar systems are easy to forget until the bills go up. Loose connections, water in isolators, shading from new tree growth or an inverter logging faults can all reduce output or create safety risks without any obvious sign. A Solar Health Check is a practical on-site inspection that tells you how your system is really going and what, if anything, needs attention.

Our licensed electrician inspects the array, isolators, cabling and inverter, reviews the fault history and compares recent production with what a system of your size and orientation should typically deliver. You receive a written report with photos and clear recommendations. The service is $249 for a residential system up to 10 kW; this is an indicative price, confirmed with you when we schedule the visit.

What's included

  • Visual inspection of panels, mounting and roof penetrations where safe access allows
  • Check of DC and AC isolators, enclosures and visible cabling for damage or water entry
  • Inverter inspection, including the display, ventilation and fault and event history
  • Comparison of recent production with typical expected output
  • Check for new shading, soiling and bird or pest activity
  • A written report with photos, findings and prioritised recommendations

Why Blue Energy Solar

We design and install solar systems, so we know what good workmanship looks like and what commonly goes wrong. Our reports are honest: if your system is healthy, we say so, and we never pad a report to sell a replacement. Any electrical work that follows is done by our licensed electricians, and Blue Energy Solar is a New Energy Tech Approved Seller with $20 million public liability cover.

Recommended for

Owners of residential solar systems up to 10 kW that are a few years old, came with a newly purchased home or are producing less than expected.

A health check is not a full electrical test. It is a visual and performance inspection. If you need insulation resistance, earthing and safety switch testing, choose our Electrical Safety Inspection instead.

As a guide, a 6.6 kW system in Sydney typically produces roughly 24-27 kWh a day on average across the year, and panels commonly lose around 0.4-0.55% of their output a year, so some decline over time is normal. Steep, high or fragile roofs may need extra safety equipment, which we confirm before the visit. Systems larger than 10 kW, or with more than one inverter, are quoted separately.

Directions

1. Request a Solar Health Check and tell us your system size, age and any concerns.
2. We confirm the price and roof access and schedule a visit.
3. Our licensed electrician inspects the system and reviews the inverter history on site.
4. We compare your production data with typical expected output.
5. You receive a written report with photos and prioritised recommendations.

Warnings

The price covers one residential system up to 10 kW with a single inverter; larger or multiple-inverter systems are quoted separately.
The roof is inspected only where safe access is available; steep or multi-storey roofs may need extra equipment, confirmed before the visit.
Repairs, cleaning and parts are not included and are quoted separately for your approval.
Production comparisons are estimates based on system size, orientation, shading and weather.
An adult must be present to provide access to the switchboard, inverter and roof area.

Frequently Asked Questions

For most home systems, a check every two to three years is a sensible routine, and sooner if the system is over ten years old, has been exposed to storms or shows lower output. A check is also worth arranging when you buy a home with solar already installed, because you often have no service history or installation records.

The report explains each issue, how urgent it is and what we recommend. Minor items may simply need monitoring. For repairs, such as a failing isolator or damaged cabling, we give you a written quote. Nothing is repaired without your approval; if there is an immediate safety risk, we isolate the affected part of the system and explain why.

Yes. The Solar Health Check covers residential systems from most manufacturers, whatever the panel or inverter. Inverter fault logs are read from the display or the monitoring app where available. If a replacement part is needed and is no longer made, we explain compatible alternatives and any approvals involved.

An app shows that the inverter is producing power, but not whether an isolator is letting in water, a connector is overheating or a panel is cracked. Output can also drop slowly, which is hard to notice day to day. The app is a great first warning; an on-site check finds problems the data can't show.
