What is SolarFIX Protect?+
A comprehensive service plan that keeps your solar system operating at its best. It's a collaboration between SolarFIX LLC and The Lifetime Warranty Co. combining monitoring, warranty coverage, and priority service.
How much does SolarFIX Protect cost?+
SolarFIX Protect is $29/month. SolarFIX Protect + Plus is a one-time $699 payment plus $69/month ($199 service fee per year).
What does 24/7 monitoring include?+
The monitoring service tracks your solar system's performance in real time, generates monthly reports, and notifies you immediately if any issues arise.
Will SolarFIX Protect monitoring work with my system?+
Monitoring works with many systems, but not all. SolarFIX will attempt to facilitate monitoring whenever possible. Some older or discontinued systems are incompatible.
Will I receive monthly monitoring reports automatically?+
Yes. If your system is compatible, automatic reports are sent once connected, giving you a detailed breakdown of system performance.
What are the perks of being a Protect Member?+
10% discount on all products and services, access to exclusive deals, and loyalty points (10/month) redeemable toward cleanings, service calls, batteries, and more.
Can I cancel my membership at any time?+
Yes. No refunds are provided for unused services or benefits. If you have SolarFIX + Plus, your Lifetime Warranty Protection ends when you cancel.
What equipment or app is required for monthly monitoring?+
SolarFIX connects to your existing solar monitoring portal or inverter via the internet, so no extra hardware is normally required. Just provide access to your existing monitoring portal.
How quickly will you respond when the monitoring system detects an issue?+
The monitoring team contacts you as soon as they detect a drop in production or system shutdown. Protect +Plus members receive priority scheduling; a technician visits as soon as possible.
What geographic areas do you serve?+
SolarFIX is based in Arizona and services the Phoenix metro (Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale, and surrounding cities). Monitoring and warranty coverage are nationally backed, so customers outside Arizona can enroll. On-site visits are handled by local partner providers.
What components of my solar system are covered under the lifetime warranty?+
Solar panels, inverters, and roof penetrations, plus associated labor. Micro-inverters and optimizers are typically treated as inverters. Batteries and non-solar equipment aren't covered unless you purchase separate coverage.
Are there exclusions or limitations to the lifetime warranty coverage?+
Coverage applies to normal equipment failures and workmanship. It doesn't cover deliberate misuse, tampering, damage from extreme weather, or acts of God. Plus-plan members have a per-claim deductible. Roofing issues unrelated to the solar penetrations aren't included.
If my installer is no longer in business, can I still get coverage?+
Yes. SolarFIX explicitly offers coverage for orphaned systems: solar arrays installed by companies that are no longer around. The warranty is insured and nationally backed, so you stay protected even if the original installer or manufacturer goes out of business.
Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan, and are there any fees for switching?+
You can move between Protect + Plus and the basic Protect plan at any time. Upgrading applies the one-time fee and monthly rate at the next billing cycle. Downgrading forfeits Plus benefits at renewal. There are no cancellation or downgrade fees.
Do I need to sign a long-term contract?+
SolarFIX Protect is month-to-month. You can cancel at any time; you simply forfeit unused services and the warranty ends when you cancel. The +Plus one-time enrollment fee is non-refundable.
Are there discounts for annual or upfront payments?+
SolarFIX doesn't list standard annual payment discounts. Periodic promotions may be available, so ask when you enroll.
How do loyalty points work?+
Standard Protect members earn 10 loyalty points per month, redeemable dollar-for-dollar toward cleanings, service calls, battery purchases, or upgrades. Points accumulate while your membership is active and aren't redeemable for cash.
Do the 10% discounts apply to all services and equipment?+
Protect Members get 10% off parts and labor for repairs, upgrades, and off-grid solutions. +Plus members also get 10% off additional services. Discounts generally exclude the one-time enrollment fee and don't apply to new system installations.
Does warranty coverage transfer when I sell my home?+
The lifetime warranty doesn't automatically transfer. The new owner can retain the same coverage by paying the one-time $699 enrollment fee and assuming the monthly membership. Once enrolled, the warranty and all benefits continue under their name.
Are emergency service calls available outside business hours?+
Signature members receive next-day service during regular business hours. For urgent issues outside those hours, monitoring alerts you and you can request a technician. After-hours dispatch may incur additional fees and is handled case-by-case.
Are there limits on the number of service calls or warranty claims per year?+
No stated limit. Excessive misuse of service calls may result in additional fees.
How does SolarFIX Protect interact with manufacturer warranties?+
Manufacturer warranties typically cover equipment defects but not labor or roof penetrations. SolarFIX Protect covers parts, labor, and roof penetrations, and continues to provide coverage if the manufacturer or installer ceases operations. It effectively extends your protection and simplifies claims.
Are roof penetrations covered?+
All roof penetration points are covered under the Service Agreement to be free from leaks caused by the penetrations. Pre-existing roof leaks and damage unrelated to the solar installation remain the homeowner's responsibility. The Lifetime Warranty Co. provides a free roof assessment prior to solar installation, upon request.
