02:20 Report the issue to SOLARKIT technical support
If a Tongwei panel does not deliver the performance expected based on degradation, report the issue to SOLARKIT; we will handle the warranty process with the manufacturer. We do not accept returns of physically damaged panels: the manufacturer must approve the replacement and provide a replacement panel.
You will void the manufacturer’s warranty in the following six cases: if you removed or disassembled the panel without authorization; if it was not installed by a qualified technician; if it sustained physical damage during or after shipping; if it was used outside the technical specifications (extreme cold, heat, acid rain); if the original invoice is missing; or if you did not report the issue within 30 days.
The product warranty is 12 or 15 years, and the performance warranty is up to 30 years: even after 30 years, the panel must still produce approximately 88% of its original output. In the event of a defect, Tongwei will replace the module, provide a partial refund, or supply a replacement module; shipping costs are covered by the manufacturer, while removal and installation are the responsibility of the contractor. To file a claim, you’ll need contact information, the panel’s model name and serial number, the original invoice, and, if possible, a photo and a multimeter reading.
