Eurener solar panels: warranty and cleaning

How long your Eurener panels are covered for, and how to look after them safely.

Eurener panels are built to last for decades with very little care. Here's what you need to know about the warranty and keeping them clean.

Your warranty

Eurener panels come with two kinds of warranty.

WarrantyWhat it coversHow long (current models)
Product warrantyFaults in the panel itself20 or 25 years, depending on the model
Performance warrantyThe panel will still produce a set share of its original output over time, with a gradual, straight-line drop allowed each year30 years

Your installation paperwork shows which panel model you have. The exact terms for your model are on its datasheet.

Do panels need cleaning?

In most of England, rain does most of the work. Panels fitted at a reasonable angle clean themselves fairly well. Eurener recommends cleaning only as often as your conditions need. Homes near farms, busy roads, trees or the coast may need it more often.

If you do clean them

When cleaning:

  • Clean when the panels are cool, such as early morning or evening.
  • Use clean water low in minerals, so it doesn't leave marks.
  • Use a soft sponge, cloth or soft brush.
  • Don't use anything abrasive or harsh chemicals.
  • Don't wipe dirt off when dry, as this can scratch the glass coating.

Things to look out for

From the ground, it's worth looking now and then for cracked glass, loose cables, nesting birds or new shading from trees. If you spot anything, don't touch it and let us know.
