Performing General Maintenance
Follow these simple routines to ensure many years of service and optimal
performance of your solar energy system.
1. Keep the heat sink clear of dust and debris.
2. Clean the PV array with flowing water whenever it is visibly dirty, during a
cool time of the day.
3. Periodically inspect the system to make sure that all wiring and supports are
securely in place.
4. Maintain a log of system performance readings so that you can recognize
when system performance becomes inconsistent.
WARNING: Shock and fire hazard
Do not use a pressure washer to clean the GT Inverter, or use other cleaning methods that
could allow water to enter the unit.
