Quick Answer
It's recommended to check your Sol-Ark system's performance every 1-3 months, depending on usage and environmental factors.
Regular System Check
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Sol-Ark system, it’s crucial to perform regular checks. Begin by inspecting the system for any signs of wear or damage, such as loose connections, corroded wires, or cracked components. Verify that all panels and mounts are secure and that the system is level.
Monitoring and Record-Keeping
Use the Sol-Ark mobile app or web portal to monitor your system’s performance, including energy production, consumption, and storage. Track your usage patterns and adjust your system accordingly. Take regular screenshots or printouts of your system’s performance to create a paper trail for future reference.
Scheduling Maintenance and Upgrades
Based on your system’s performance data and usage patterns, schedule maintenance and upgrades as needed. For example, if your system is underperforming due to dirty panels, clean the panels every 6-12 months or as recommended by the manufacturer. Consider upgrading your system’s software or adding new components, such as a battery bank or additional panels, to optimize performance and increase energy storage capacity.
