    Production warranty?

    @jboy210 Yes I'm aware of the change. But your not understanding what I'm saying. I was told that nobody in my area (it's a new region for the solar roof) is getting gutters. When I mentioned my neighbor, they basically said I was making my neighbor up. My neighbor refused to let me use his...

    Production warranty?

    @Sonus , other companies do offer it. They have clauses for customer required maintenance. They also low ball the estimate so odds are they will never have to pay out. The warranty Tesla offers is even more worthless though. Sure, they may act in good faith, but the customer basically has no...

    Production warranty?

    There is no production warranty. I asked and was told Tesla doesn't offer one. However, they have flat out lied to me about multiple other points in the contract. For example they verbally told me I can cancel for a full refund up till the day they deliver supplies. Contract says 10 days...

    Solarglass Roof in partial shade?

    Most inverters have multiple MPPT ports that are basically as good as having multiple inverters. Each plane should be hooked to its own MPPT port. In my case Tesla was hooking the planes to the same port, even though it was trivial to separate them. Made me question just about everything else...

    Solarglass Roof in partial shade?

    I'm pretty far along in my solar roof order. I can't say with 100% certainty, but I don't think you can use power optimizers with the solar roof. At least they never offered to use them for my roof. I've got the site plan they were submitting to the permit office with schematics. They were...

    SolarRoof Help

    Hi woferry, I've studied the inverter manual some more. There is no mention of away to turn off the MPP-Tracking. I do see graphs and other data that suggest the "Full Power MPPT operating range" is 200V to 480V. That would give a min voltage of 5.71, which is below even Teslas adjusted Vmp of...

    SolarRoof Help

    Hi jboy210, I spent many hours contacting different building code divisions both at state and county level. After them getting tried of me they finally declared that there were no 3 feet pathway requirements for the tesla solar tiles. This is because those pathways are for fire fighters to walk...

    SolarRoof Help

    Thanks woferry, They actually did give me a production guarantee. But its about 40% less than what PVWatts Calculator says I'd get if each plane was fully isolated. Now I know that solar tiles are less efficient and that the web site doesn't know about my east shade. But 40% less is quite a...

    SolarRoof Help

    Hi TMC Folks, Been lurking here for about 3 months and learning what I can from the experiences and expertise in this forum. I'm finally at the stage in my solar roof order where I've gotten a site plan and now I have some questions that I hope some of you can answer. The current plan has...
