Solar installation in Cabo: evidence to request

Compare roof attachments, corrosion protection and electrical commissioning records. A panel warranty alone does not establish installation quality.

In this guide

Review the installation scope alongside the panel brand

For a coastal roof, ask the designer to document the site exposure, mounting choice and maintenance requirements. A module’s warranty does not cover every roof penetration, connection or workmanship issue.

Evidence to request with the proposal
PartUseful evidence
Roof attachmentSite-specific structural basis and fixing details.
WaterproofingPenetration detail and written responsibility for leaks.
Exposed hardwareManufacturer material and exposure specifications.
Electrical workSingle-line diagram, equipment list and test record.

A certificate has a defined scope

Ask what component was tested, which document applies to the supplied model and what installation conditions the manufacturer requires. A module test cannot substitute for the structural design of the complete roof system.

Keep model numbers consistent

Compare the quotation, delivered equipment labels and handover inventory. A brochure for a different model is not evidence for the installed equipment.

Request a documented handover

Keep configuration records, photographs of completed work, safety labels, commissioning results and the responsible installer’s contact information.

Make warranty service concrete

Ask who diagnoses a fault, who removes and reinstalls equipment, which travel or labor costs are excluded and how to report roof leaks. Get the maintenance schedule and the process for checking output after a storm. Qualified professionals must specify and inspect the work.

FAQ

What to clarify before quoting.

Does a 25-year panel warranty cover the installation?

Check the separate manufacturer, workmanship and roof terms. Their coverage and exclusions can differ; obtain the actual documents.

Can satellite imagery replace a structural inspection?

No. It helps screen area and solar potential, but does not establish structural capacity, roof condition or safe fixing details.

What should I retain after installation?

The equipment inventory, drawings, commissioning record, warranty documents, operating instructions and monitoring access under your control.

Sources

External sources used as context.

These references provide technical context. Your location, energy needs and project scope still need an individual assessment.

Start with the property’s actual information

Use your CFE bill for an initial assessment. Roof conditions, equipment and the final scope need confirmation before installation.
