Yes, reputable thermographers should carry insurance coverage to protect against any unforeseen circumstances during the inspection process. It is essential to work with insured professionals to ensure both your safety and theirs.
Thermal inspections should be conducted by qualified and certified thermographers who specialise in solar panel inspections. These professionals possess the expertise and knowledge required to accurately interpret thermal images, identify anomalies, and recommend appropriate actions.
The frequency of thermal inspections depends on several factors, including the age of the system, the local climate conditions, and any previous maintenance or repairs. As a general guideline, it is recommended to conduct inspections at least once a year. However, if you notice any sudden changes in energy production, visible damage, or other concerns, it's advisable to schedule an inspection promptly.
