-9-

The following maintenance is recommended to ensure optimum perfor-

mance and longevity of the solar system:

• Clean the glass surface of the solar panel when necessary. Always 

use water and a soft sponge or cloth for cleaning. A mild, non-abrasive 

cleaning agent can be used to remove dirt.

• Check the electrical and mechanical connections every six months to 

verify that they are clean, secure and undamaged.

• Inspect the solar panels and make sure the surfaces are free from 

dust, dirt, and other debris; clean with a wet cloth or glass cleaner if 

necessary.

• Check to make sure all structural components, mechanical fasteners, 

and electrical connections are secure, clean, and corrosion-free.

• Check and replace damaged components if necessary
