Solar Panel Warranties

Inverter Warranties

"Generally we’ve seen hardly any of the components fail in a Fronius inverter. But when the occasional small component needs replacing it has been dealt with in a timely manner and our labour is covered to do it. "
"What’s great is that Fronius prioritise reparability, so the whole inverter doesn’t need chucking out, usually, it’s just a simple replacement part."

Battery Warranties

Workmanship Warranty

What To Consider Across All Warranties

  • Coverage and duration may sound obvious, but keep an eye out for exclusions or limitations. As mentioned, battery cycle limitations is a key one to be aware of.
  • New Zealand support for warranty claims – it’s worth checking that the manufacturer has NZ-based support. While we handle issues on your behalf, local support is much faster if any problems arise. Quick replacement part turnarounds can get your system back to producing power in no time.
  • Company sustainability – a warranty is only valuable if the company is around to honour it. Check out the track record, longevity and bankability of the company.
  • Company reputation for handling warranty claims – read reviews to gauge people’s experiences with warranty claims. In our experience, Tesla has a quick turnaround compared to other companies in the battery space, ensuring you’re up and running again sooner.
