Solar panel repair in Granada Hills, CA
Cali Energy repairs and services home solar in Granada Hills. Fourteen Granada Hills systems are under our monitoring. On a system we installed in 2021, we came back five years later, replaced the inverter without disturbing a single module or attachment, and re-paired all twenty-seven optimizers before production resumed.
On a string-inverter system with an optimizer under each module, the inverter on the wall does the conversion, so replacing it is work on the wall. On our Granada Hills system the 2026 replacement left the tile roof untouched, and the system was re-commissioned with all twenty-seven optimizers found and paired. On a Granada Hills tile roof in 2023 we answered a leak report within two days, traced it to a penetration older than the solar, and sealed it on the visit.

An inverter replaced, the roof left alone
Our 2021 Granada Hills system put twenty-seven modules on a concrete tile roof, an optimizer under each and one string inverter on the wall by the side door. In 2026 the inverter was replaced: no module and no attachment disturbed, nothing on the tile touched. The system was re-commissioned and all twenty-seven optimizers were found and paired before production resumed. This inverter also carries an integrated EV charger, so the charger is out of service with it while the unit is replaced. EV chargers in Granada Hills
A leak report answered in two days
In March 2023 the owners of a Granada Hills tile roof with a system we installed in 2021 reported leaks and put them down to the solar. We were on the roof two days later, traced where the water was actually entering rather than diagnosing it by phone, found a penetration older than the installation and unrelated to any mount, sealed it on the visit and reported the finding in writing.

Why do the optimizers need re-pairing?
Each optimizer is registered to the inverter. After the replacement on our Granada Hills system, all twenty-seven were found and paired before the system produced again.
What if I think my solar is causing a leak?
Call us to trace it. On a Granada Hills tile roof a leak blamed on the array came from an older penetration, and it was sealed on the first visit, two days after the report.
