Solar panels are built with durability in mind. They are tested under the most extreme weather conditions, including rain, wind, and ice. In the case of an upcoming severe weather alert, it isn’t necessary to remove your solar panels.
In all of the years that solar panels have been around, they have proven to outlast crazy weather conditions. Even solar panels in hurricane areas are popular because they fair well during storms.
Read on to learn how solar panels hold up.
Some solar panels are made with thick, tempered glass that is quite strong when up against volatile weather conditions. Other panels are made of monocrystalline silicon, which is tested with strong winds and heavy rain.
Just like any other investment, take comprehensive records on the state of your solar panels before a storm. And then, if your panels incur any damage, contact your solar company for repairs. Your warranty will have you covered.
There is a reason why solar panels have 20-year warranties on them. They are durable, lasting through storms and extreme weather conditions.
