Warranty for solar equipment and batteries

Each product comes with its manufacturer’s warranty, with its own duration and conditions. Here are the typical warranty periods and the manufacturers’ documents.

Victron Energy inverter-charger with a charge controller and WeCo 16K0 lithium battery

Certified by the manufacturers Victron Energy and WeCo

Victron Energy certifies SUSEINCA as its direct factory representative for the Dominican Republic, qualified to provide support and preventive and corrective maintenance (letter dated November 11, 2021). WeCo accredits SUSEINCA as its authorized representative and technical support provider for Latin America (letter dated October 9, 2025).

How the warranty works

Warranties depend on the brand and model of each product. As a guide, solar panels almost always have 12 years of coverage against manufacturing defects and 25 years of coverage for linear degradation; inverters have 5 years; and batteries have 5 years, extendable to 10 years. All warranties are always subject to the manufacturer’s terms and acceptance.

The equipment SUSEINCA installs is covered by its manufacturer’s warranty, subject to the conditions published by that manufacturer. SUSEINCA handles claims as an authorized representative and does not provide an additional warranty of its own on the equipment.

This does not limit SUSEINCA’s responsibilities for the installation, configuration or supply services it provides directly. Installation and labor terms are set out in each written quotation.

Conditions you should know

The WeCo 16K0-LV performance warranty requires compliance with its manual, a battery temperature recorded by the BMS between +10 and +40 °C, a depth of discharge no greater than 90%, and charging and discharging current no greater than 0.5 C, with the BMS communicating with the inverter via CAN. Installation and commissioning are therefore carried out by qualified personnel in a ventilated equipment room away from direct sunlight. Damage caused by misuse, lightning or power surges, corrosion, or the opening of the equipment by unauthorized technicians is excluded, subject to each manufacturer’s conditions.
