Your solar system just stopped working.
What now?
It happens more often than it should. You check your monitoring app and see your system's output has dropped to zero — or worse, your inverter shows a fault code you can't decode. Maybe a storm rolled through and now something's different. Maybe you just woke up one morning and it's silent.
For Palm Beach County homeowners, the most common causes of solar system failures are heat-related inverter degradation (our summers are brutal), storm impact damage from hurricane-force debris, and the slow deterioration of wiring and connectors over a decade of UV exposure. Whatever the cause, the result is the same: you paid for solar, and it's not delivering.
Locke Energy Solutions specializes in solar repair across Palm Beach County. We carry common inverter replacement parts in our service vehicles, so many repairs can be completed on the first visit — not after a two-week parts order.
We service all of Palm Beach County — Wellington, West Palm Beach, Jupiter, Boca Raton, Boynton Beach, Delray Beach, Lake Worth, Palm Beach Gardens, Royal Palm Beach, and Greenacres. Most repair calls are scheduled within 2–4 business days. Emergency same-week service available for complete system failures.
Common solar problems we fix
Inverter Failures
Heat, lightning surges, and age cause inverters to fail. Symptoms: system goes silent, fault lights, app shows zero production. We replace Enphase, SolarEdge, SMA, and most other brands.
Storm Damage
Hurricane debris, fallen tree limbs, or wind-driven rain can crack panels, damage mounting, or loosen wiring. We provide repair estimates for insurance claims with documented photo evidence.
Arc Faults & Wiring Issues
Loose connections, corroded terminal boxes, and damaged conductors cause intermittent faults and reduced output. We trace and repair wiring issues — including in-roof conduit paths.
Microinverter Failures
Enphase microinverters sometimes fail individually, causing one panel to drop out. We diagnose via production data, replace the failed unit, and re-optimize the string.
