Enjoy Long Term Energy Benefits
To ensure you get the best out of your solar panels in the long term, we at Apollo Solar can organise regular health checks for your system.
With our help, you can avoid costly breakdowns and ensure your panels are primed to gather the maximum energy benefits from the sun. We provide solar panel maintenance in Brisbane, Townsville, Forster and surrounding areas.
Although all the products come with a reliable and long-lasting warranty, arranging a yearly health check is highly recommended. Our manufacturers also have warranties on their products, so if we find that replacements or repairs are necessary, they could potentially be covered without additional charge. If this is not possible, we will notify you of the necessary work required and provide a competitive quote. Our technicians will spare no effort to get your solar panels functioning the way they should.
Contact Apollo Solar to arrange a service today. We offer checks for on and off-grid panels, hybrid systems and more.
Our Process
A typical solar panel health check carried out by our professionals involves the following:
- Cleaning panels
- Checking panels for defects
- Testing AC/DC isolation switches
- Testing the array voltage (ensuring it is within correct parameters)
- Checking wiring (ensuring everything is safely configured)
- Compiling a report of findings (indicating the performance of your system as compared to Australian averages)
We strongly recommend that you don’t attempt to clean or service your solar panels yourself. This can lead to more costly damage being cause, and it puts you at risk of injury. When you choose Apollo Solar, you can enjoy complete peace of mind.

A firm offered me a FREE health check. Is this a scam?
Some companies offer to carry out free health checks in an attempt to charge you for unnecessary maintenance. Often they will tell you the inverter needs replacing when it doesn’t. Always be wary of people offering free solar health checks.
