INSPECTION

After installing any Go Power! Solar Kit or any other Go Power! products, all modules, electrical and mechanical components and connections should be inspected annually by a trained Go Power! or dealer representative or other qualified personnel for safe electrical and mechanical connections and to ensure modules are corrosion-free and vehicle mounting has not affected connections.

CLEANING

Although Go Power! Solar Kits are generally maintenance free, significant performance gains can be made with clean solar panels

1. Clean the solar panels monthly. Use water and a soft sponge or cloth. A mild non-abrasive cleanser can be used for more stubborn residue. Rinse well.

2. Clean solar panels more frequently during drier months, as they may become covered in dust more quickly. A pressure washer is not recommended.

3. Visual inspection – check the exterior for cracks, missing or broken hardware or other potential problems. Check all roof penetrations and replace sealant areas as required.

LONG TERM STORAGE - RV

If your RV will be stored in extremely cold climates you may need to remove your batteries to prevent them from freezing. Please note if your solar panel(s) are covered by snow they will not produce power and can not be depended upon to keep the batteries topped up. In mild climate storage you can depend upon your solar system to top up your batteries when they are exposed to sunlight. Make sure that all parasitic draws are removed from the batteries i.e. Propane detector, clock radio, etc to make sure the solar panel(s) can keep the batteries topped up even with reduced sun exposure.
