Schedule Regular Cleaning

Dirt, dust, and bird droppings can accumulate on your solar panels, reducing their efficiency. Scheduling regular cleanings can prevent this buildup. In Encinitas, where the climate is dry and dusty, consider cleaning your panels at least twice a year to keep them operating optimally. Use soft brushes and gentle, soapy water to maintain the panels without scratching their surfaces.

Monitor System Performance

Regularly monitoring your solar system’s performance can help you detect issues early. Many systems offer performance monitoring apps that track energy output. By checking these apps regularly, homeowners in Encinitas can spot inefficiencies or drops in performance, allowing for prompt maintenance or professional inspection as needed.

Inspect for Shade and Wear

Shading from nearby trees and general wear and tear can affect solar panel efficiency. Regularly inspect your panels for overhanging branches or debris. Trim back any vegetation that could cast shadows and check for signs of corrosion or damage, especially after strong winds or storms, common in coastal areas like Encinitas.

RCH Renewables just completed work on our Tesla Powerwall battery system and I’m thrilled to report that every aspect of the project was executed above and beyond my expectations. Ian and Landon are by far the most knowledgeable professionals I have encountered within the realm of renewable energy, battery storage, and everything electrical. Looking forward to working with them again soon!

I 💯 give my top recommendation for RCH Renewables!!! Running a small business can get hectic, and having an honest electrician that makes sure the job gets done, and gets done well is so crucial. I love the thorough quality of work, and he patiently answered any questions I had. I use RCH for all of my work now and couldn't be happier with their service! Shout out to Landon for making sure we stay on top of all of our electrical needs, my kitchen equipment and I much appreciate all the hard work

Had a great experience with RCH Renewables. We are a new EV owner and submitted info on a Sunday via their website for a charger install. Was surprised to get an immediate response and they provided a quote right away. They offered several options, helped identify the best solution for us, and had us scheduled for install the day after the charger arrived. Great service. Will be contacting them again next time when we need electrical work.

Thank you so much Eric for the review! We’re thrilled to hear you had a great experience with our team. It was a pleasure getting your Wallbox charger set up with load shedding to make sure everything integrated safely and efficiently into your current electrical system. We look forward to assisting you with any future electrical needs!

One word AMAZING! My wife and I have been trying to get our City permit for over a year and a half through other companies with no luck. RCH stepped in and got it done just like that! Landon is THE MAN! An absolute pleasure to work with and keeps you up to date with all the progress and steps needed!

Landon and his team did an incredible job. The work was done efficiently, professionally, and effectively. They installed a Tesla home charging system in my home which required running some conduit and swapping some breakers - it has worked flawlessly ever since. Extremely satisfied with the final product, and would certainly recommend their services.

RCH Renewables recently provided some electrical work at my home. The electrician (Landon) did a fantastic job running a new electrical line from my breaker box to my garage so I good improve the charging of my electrical vehicle. Landon was excellent in preforming the work and explained the work as he progressed. Landon was thorough, efficient and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend RCH and give them a 5 star rating.

I am pleased to recommend Landon Raster for his exceptional work installing our charging station. From start to finish, his professionalism attention to detail, and technical expertise were evident in every aspect of the project. His team demonstrated a thorough understanding of the requirements, provided clear communication throughout the process, and completed the installation on time and within budget. They took the time to explain the system’s operation and ensured everything was functioning flawlessly before completing the job. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction was truly impressive, and I highly recommend Landon to anyone in need of reliable and efficient charging station installation services.

Committed to get the job done right and make everything look great. Really appreciated Landon getting us connected. I went from serious range anxiety and public EV frustrations to far more relaxed and confident with our decision to go with an EV. Landon made this happen for us, and the design of our multiple attics didn't make that job easy by any means. Thank you so very much for taking such great care of us.
