A Real Estate inspection in Wellington revealed serious issues related to an installation. Aside from the entire array being mounted crooked by 8 inches the attachment hardware was not to plan and the solar panels installed don't meet wind load requirements. Despite the project being permitted and inspected, most local municipalities do not dig into the details in the safety and operations manual of the solar panels.
We documented the issues for the buyer so they could properly assess the risk of owning this installation. Proper installation is critical in Florida. π If you're purchasing a home with solar panels a detailed inspection will help you determine what issues or benefits you may be able to expect.
