FAQs

Do these clips work on all solar panels?

They are designed for most standard solar panel frame profiles, though it is recommended to test one clip on your specific frame before purchasing in bulk.

Does installing these void my solar panel warranty?

No. Because these clips use a no-drill, non-invasive mounting method, they are designed to maintain manufacturer warranties.

Are the clips UV-resistant?

Yes, they are made from UV-stabilized materials to prevent degradation from long-term sun exposure.

How far apart should I place the clips?

For optimal security and to prevent mesh sagging, place the clips at intervals of 30-45cm along the panel frame.

Can I remove the clips if I need to service the panels?

Yes, the clips are designed for easy removal and re-installation, facilitating simple maintenance access.

What is the material of the clips?

The PG Solar Panel Mesh Fixing Clips are durable, UV-stabilized fasteners engineered for outdoor use.

Troubleshooting

Mesh is sagging between clips

Increase the frequency of clip placement to every 30cm rather than 45cm to provide better support for the mesh.

Clip is difficult to lock onto the frame

Ensure the frame gap is clear of debris or thick debris seals that might interfere with the clip's grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Protects solar equipment from animal-related damage
Preserves panel manufacturer warranties by avoiding drills
Weather-resistant and UV-stabilized for longevity
User-friendly design enables quick installation and removal

Cons

Requires careful measurement of spacing to be effective
Must be paired with compatible solar mesh netting
May require ladder access to roof, posing safety risks

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward and requires minimal tools. Begin by cleaning the underside of the panel frames to ensure a good fit. Insert the clip into the gap between the panel and the frame, threading your chosen mesh onto the shaft before securing it with the locking disc. Ensure that you maintain the recommended spacing of 30-45cm to prevent sagging.

Regarding care, the clips are UV-stabilized, meaning they require no special chemical treatments. During your annual solar panel inspection, check the tension of the mesh. If any clips have shifted due to thermal expansion or high winds, they can be easily readjusted or replaced without tools.
