Real Estate Inspections
When buying or selling a home, solar inspections are crucial to ensure a safe, productive and properly operating system.
The Problem
A homeowner was considering buying a home with a Solar System. They wanted to ensure the system was safe, properly installed and producing at optimal levels. Their agent contacted Solar O+M to conduct a thorough inspection of the PV solar system.
Our Solution
Solar O+M performed a multi-point inspection of the PV system and its components. We analyzed the annual sun exposure, safety, quality of installation and various operating components using a customized inspection conducted with industry leading tools. We met with the potential homeowner and agent and provided a detailed, comprehensive review showing the results of our inspection. We also familiarized the customer with the functions of all of the solar components.
Results
Solar O+M provided confidence in the safety and production of the solar system. We informed the prospective buyer of all potential performance issues and service requirements.
As an agent, I have shown many properties to clients that have solar panels installed. Being a newer technology, I am new to the inspection process of previously installed panels. I called Solar O + M and they made the inspection process seamless and informative. My clients can now rest easy knowing that the panels on their new home are productive, safe, and installed properly.
