What our solar system inspection includes
The New Day Solar Inspection Checklist:
Visual Inspection of all Equipment
During the visual inspection, our certified inspectors meticulously examine every component of your solar panel system.
- Solar Panels:
Checking for any signs of physical damage, wear, or defective cells that might affect performance. - Inverters:
Verifying the functionality of inverters, ensuring they are efficiently converting DC power to AC power for your home or business. - Wiring and Connections:
Inspecting the wiring for wear, damage, or loose connections that could compromise safety or performance. - Mounting and Racking Systems:
Ensuring the secure attachment of solar panels to your roof or mounting structure.
This thorough examination ensures that each element of your solar system is in optimal condition and can perform effectively.
Determine System Operating using all Information Available
Our inspectors utilize all available information to assess the overall performance and operating status of your solar system. This includes:
- Data Analysis:
Reviewing historical performance data to identify any irregularities or deviations from expected energy production. - Monitoring System Checks:
Verifying the functionality of the monitoring system, ensuring it accurately captures real-time data. - System Logs:
Checking system logs for any error messages or unusual patterns that may indicate a potential issue.
By utilizing a combination of historical data and real-time monitoring, we gain a comprehensive understanding of your system’s operation.
Visual Inspection of Exterior Roof Penetrations
Roof penetrations are crucial points that require careful examination to prevent potential leaks or structural issues. Our inspectors focus on:
- Flashing and Sealant:
Checking the condition of flashing and sealant around roof penetrations to ensure a watertight seal. - Penetration Integrity:
Verifying the integrity of any roof penetrations, such as conduits or mounting hardware. - Structural Assessment:
Ensuring that the installation of roof penetrations hasn’t compromised the structural integrity of the roof.
This visual inspection safeguards against potential water damage and ensures the long-term integrity of your roofing system.
Analysis of Actual Power Production of System Vs Expected Production*
To evaluate the performance of your solar system, we conduct a detailed analysis of actual power production compared to the expected production. This involves:
- Energy Output Comparison:
Comparing the actual energy output of your system to the expected production based on factors such as sunlight exposure and system capacity. - Identifying Discrepancies:
Investigating any significant deviations between actual and expected production to pinpoint potential issues. - Efficiency Assessment:
Assessing the overall efficiency of your solar panels and associated components.
This analysis provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of your solar panel system and allows us to address any performance-related concerns.
*Production analysis can only be complete once New Day Solar has been granted access to the solar system’s monitoring equipment

New Day Solar did an absolutely outstanding job on my solar, EV Charger and battery install. Daren was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in getting the design and helping me make the choices, and the install team was fantastic! Could not recommend them any higher!

Excellent service. Cory Johnson at New Day Solar is the best! Two years after the installation of our solar panels we had an issue that arose on the Friday before Father’s Day.
I reached out to Cory and he responded right away and scheduled a tech to come out on Monday at 9am. It is so rare these days to get that kind of customer service. I highly recommend Cory and New Day Solar. Thank you!

I recently had New Day Solar install additional solar panels and a battery at my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire team displayed a high level of professionalism, skill, and dedication to ensuring I was satisfied with their work.
A standout in the team was Matt, who truly exceeded my expectations. His meticulous attention to detail was impressive. He took the extra step to repaint the conduit so it would blend seamlessly with our house’s exterior. Additionally, he proactively replaced some breakers, even though it wasn’t part of the original scope of work, which I found incredibly thoughtful.
What truly set Matt apart was his sharp observation skills. While working on the side of our house, he noticed a gas odor that I hadn’t detected, as I rarely visit that part of the property. Acting on his observation, I called the gas company, and they confirmed there was a leak. Matt’s attentiveness may have prevented a potentially hazardous situation.
Before deciding on NewDay Solar, I did extensive research and was impressed by their positive reviews and willingness to address all my technical inquiries. My experience with them has validated that decision. The team is not only knowledgeable and efficient but also genuinely cares about their customers’ well-being.
