Pigeons, vermin and leaves under your panels are a big headache, we can fix it with 'solar mesh'. We are Adelaide's leading solar repair company, who specialise in the installation, maintenance and repair of grid connected solar systems. When you bought your solar system you may well have been told it was maintenance free, but the reality is that everything in life requires a bit of attention from time to time.
What should you be doing? Dirty panels will greatly reduce the efficiency of your solar system. Some estimates are over 25% reduction in efficiency, so keeping them clean will make a difference. You only need to wipe them over, or hose them down occasionally, but it is worth the effort. Only do this on a cloudy day, or at the beginning or end of the day.
Putting water directly on to the glass of the panels when they are hot may cause them to crack. As your system gets older it is wise to get it checked regularly by a professional who can ensure everything is fine. This will find any potential problems, and give you peace of mind that your system is safe, and working as it should.

Services
Adelaide Solar Repairs was established in 2011 by Patrick and Jackie, who were already working in the solar industry, and saw a need as more and more solar companies closed, and inverter manufacturers disappeared. With all the changes that have happened to the Governments solar rebates schemes, the industry has been very competitive.
If you just want to talk to our friendly, experienced office staff about your problem, give us a call now on 1300 130 546. Please then also be specific about what your problem is, ie what is the error message on the inverter, or your reasons for thinking there is a problem. We will talk through the problem with you, and organise a visit to fix the system if necessary.
If you have had your grid connect solar for a few years, or even if you have just bought a house with solar on the roof, it is advisable to have it checked over. As with all things, a bit of maintenance early on can save a bigger bill later when things go wrong. This check is to give you peace of mind that all is good, and for us to give you any recommendations.
We can arrange to take down your solar panels for a short while, while the roof on your house is being restored. We can then put them back again a few days later, or we can relocate them to another roof. Most times we will store the panels at your house, but it is possible for us to take them away and bring them back later, if you are concerned about where to store them safely.
Solar Inverters are complex pieces of equipment, and like all electronic devices can go wrong. But sometimes when it looks like the inverter is faulty it is actually a problem with other parts of your grid connected solar system. If nothing happens, contact us. It may be that your inverter is faulty, and cheap inverters will often look dead, and not have any error messages.

As an owner of an older solar array I really thought that I would be up for big dollars to repair my system or, at worst replacement Thanks to the experience of Adelaide Solar Repairs they knew a fix that would possibly get the system going again. Thankfully it did! Most others I feel would have said it’s old and needs to be replaced. It obviously will need replacement at some stage, but I know where I’ll be going when the time comes. Adelaide Solar Repairs. Thankyou!

Best Customer Service and Professionalism I have had for a long, long time.
Had to have my Solar Panels replaced after the invertor stopped working. Phoned Adelaide Solar Repairs. Their repairer attended and phone me to let me know that the invertor and two of the panels had stopped working and were unrepairable.....over ten years old. Quote was done for replacement. Services order. Was kept in contact with what was happening and when. Very smooth replacement services done. All very professional and no hassles what so ever. Communication great. Highly recommend them for solar repairs or replacement

The team of people I dealt with were all fantastic! Their responsiveness, willingness to assist and the way they explained everything in easy to understand language was super impressive. The technician arrived on time, was friendly and explained everything to me. He even found a fault that we weren't expecting which meant the whole inverter didn't have to be replaced after all. It is so nice to find a group of people that are honest and trustworthy and aren't out to overcharge you. The process from start to finish was hassle free and the end result was better than we expected!!

Recently needed work on our Xantrex inverter. Several solar businesses told us it was not possible and tried to sell us a new system. When we contacted ASR they were courteous, knowledgeable and quickly arranged a technician to sort things out.
He was efficient, tidy and on time. This has saved us a lot of time and money, Thank you.
