Why This Matters
Your Solar Panels May Last 30 Years.
Will Your Warranty?
Manufacturer warranties often cover the equipment itself. They do not always cover what it takes to find the problem and put it right. Homeowners can still run into labor, service, diagnostic and truck roll expenses when a system fails, and those costs tend to arrive years after the install, when the original paperwork is long forgotten.

Commercial Coverage Details
Beyond the Equipment Warranty
Manufacturer coverage varies by product and may not include labor or shipping. Coastal Protect Commercial adds the following protection for qualifying claims, subject to its warranty terms.
Panels, Inverters and Racking
Eligible solar panels, inverters and racking are covered. Panel coverage is 30 years; inverter coverage is 20 years. Certain gateways may qualify under the applicable terms, but communication equipment is excluded.
Parts, Labor and Standard Shipping
Qualified claims include covered replacement parts, dispatch and labor, plus standard shipping needed for removal, replacement and reinstallation of defective covered components.
Manufacturer Default Protection
If a manufacturer defaults or becomes insolvent, applicable warranty obligations remain in force with insurance backing from an A.M. Best A+ rated carrier. Solar Insure is the warranty provider, not an insurance company.
Enrollment After Utility Approval
Commercial enrollment can begin after Permission to Operate (PTO). Coverage requires proper enrollment, all requested project documentation and payment received. It does not start automatically at installation.
Discuss Commercial CoverageTransfers With the Property
Coastal Protect Commercial coverage is assigned to the system address and transfers automatically to subsequent property owners at no additional transfer cost, subject to warranty terms.
No Recurring Subscription Fee
The flyers specify no deductible, subscription, onboarding or transfer fees. This does not mean the warranty program is free. Request a project-specific proposal; program pricing is not published.
