šŸŒž Summary Notes

In Lakeside Ridge, Tasha Johnson thought her 25-year solar warranty covered everything—until her inverter started acting up and the installer went silent. Enter Photon Blaze, who arrives in a beam of light to deliver the knowledge every solar buyer needs: understanding your warranty is the real superpower. Because protection isn’t automatic—it’s intentional.

⚔ Key Themes

šŸ”¹ The Three-Warranty System
Solar protection comes in layers—if you know where to look:

  1. Product Warranty
    Covers defects in the panel’s build quality. Usually lasts 10–25 years.
    🟔 Ask: ā€œDoes this include labor for repairs?ā€

  2. Performance Warranty
    Ensures your panels will still produce a set percentage over time (e.g., 80% after 25 years).
    🟔 Look for: <0.5% annual degradation.

  3. Installation Warranty
    Covers the installer’s craftsmanship—roof mounts, wiring, penetrations.
    🟔 Confirm: They cover roof damage caused during install.

šŸ”¹ Battery Warranties Matter Too
Solid state soda ash batteries need their own review:
āœ… Look for 10–15 year warranties
āœ… Check for 5,000+ cycles
āœ… Clarify how performance is measured and issues are resolved

⚔ Discussion Questions

šŸ’¬ Do you know the difference between product and performance warranties?
šŸ’¬ Who’s on the hook if a component fails—manufacturer or installer?
šŸ’¬ Would your warranty survive a home sale?
šŸ’¬ Have you read the fine print on exclusions or transfer clauses?

⚔ Action Steps

āœ… Get clear, written confirmation of each warranty type
āœ… Ask if warranties include labor or just parts
āœ… Check battery warranties for lifespan and cycle coverage
āœ… Confirm your installer covers roof-related issues
āœ… Request a copy of SolarEvol’s Warranty Clarity Kit
āœ… Don’t wait for a failure—understand your protection before you sign

⚔ Reflection

A solar system isn’t just an installation—it’s an investment. But that investment only holds value if you understand how it’s protected. Tasha didn’t need a new warranty. She needed clarity. And thanks to Photon Blaze, she got both.

As he said before lifting off into the golden sky:
ā€œConfidence isn’t found in paperwork. It’s found in knowing how to read it.ā€
