Newcastle System Maintenance
Noticing a drop in your solar system’s performance? It might be time for a check-up. At Spot On Solar International, we offer reliable and thorough system maintenance services for homes and businesses in and around Newcastle and the Hunter. Even the best solar setups need regular attention to stay at peak performance. Dirt, dust, ageing components, or even a faulty inverter can quietly impact your output over time—often without you realising. That’s why we recommend routine inspections and system health checks to catch issues early, prevent bigger problems, and help you get the most from your solar investment.
We can test your system, clean panels, check connections, assess inverter efficiency, and provide advice on any upgrades or repairs that might be needed. Whether your system was installed by us or another provider, we’re here to help it run the way it should. Our local team is responsive, experienced, and focused on getting things sorted quickly with minimal disruption to your day.

Keep Your Solar Performing Year-Round
A well-maintained solar system doesn’t just run better—it lasts longer and saves you more in the long run. That’s why our system maintenance service is tailored to keep your setup clean, safe, and fully operational no matter what brand or age it is. We start with a full performance review, comparing your current output to what your system should be delivering based on your setup and local weather conditions. We’ll then inspect all components, including panel cleanliness, mounting hardware, cabling, inverter operation, and safety systems.
If we spot any damage, wear and tear, or technical faults, we’ll explain your options and provide a clear, no-pressure quote for repairs or upgrades. In many cases, simple fixes like cleaning or a firmware update can make a noticeable difference in output. We also help Newcastle customers track performance through smart monitoring tools, ensuring you're not left in the dark when things aren’t working as they should. And if you’ve just moved into a property with an existing solar system, we can give it a full check to confirm everything’s running as it should.
How often should a solar system be serviced?
Most solar systems should be professionally serviced at least once every 12 to 24 months. This helps ensure all components are operating correctly and that issues like dirty panels, loose wiring, or inverter faults don’t go unnoticed. In areas with heavy dust, pollen, or sea spray—like Newcastle and surrounding coastal regions—more frequent maintenance may be beneficial. Regular servicing keeps your system safe, efficient, and eligible for warranty conditions.
What are signs that my solar system needs maintenance?
Common signs include a noticeable drop in your energy savings, system alerts or inverter error messages, or dirty or visibly damaged panels. You might also notice that your electricity bills have gone up despite having solar. If you’re using a monitoring app, lower-than-usual production or inconsistent readings are a good indicator that something needs attention. Even if your system appears to be working, hidden issues can reduce performance and shorten system lifespan.
Can I clean my own solar panels?
While it’s possible to clean your panels yourself using water and a soft brush, it’s important to do so safely—especially if your panels are on a pitched or high roof. Using abrasive materials or harsh detergents can damage the panels or void the warranty. For best results and peace of mind, it’s often safer to have a professional clean them as part of a system check-up. They’ll also be able to inspect for other issues at the same time.
