Maintenance Tips for Summer Efficiency

Bihar's summers can be scorching, with temperatures often crossing 40°C. While solar panels love sunlight, extreme heat can slightly reduce their efficiency. However, a well-maintained system will continue to perform optimally.

1. Keep Panels Clean

Dust is the biggest enemy of solar generation in North India. A layer of dust can reduce output by 15-20%.
Tip: Clean your panels early in the morning when they are cool. Use water and a soft sponge. Avoid harsh detergents.

2. Check for Shade

Trees grow, and new structures come up. Ensure that no new shadows are falling on your panels during peak sun hours (10 AM to 3 PM).

3. Monitor Inverter Display

Check your inverter's display or app regularly. If you see a red light or an error code, contact your service provider immediately.

4. Cable Inspection

Heat can sometimes affect cable insulation over many years. A quick visual check (or a professional inspection from Avini Solar) ensures everything is safe.
