Winaico boosted its product warranty in Australia from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/winaico-solar-warranty-mb1587\/\">15 years to 25 years<\/a> last year. Solar panels usually come with two warranties &#8211; product and performance. The product warranty length, which covers defects in manufacturing, is the one solar buyers should pay special attention to.<\/p>\n<p>All Winaico modules also come with an insurance policy covering against loss due to material damage, interruption of service or reduced yield <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winaico.com.au\/insurance\">for the first two years<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Winaico Solar Panels And Hail<\/h2>\n<p>Something curious I spotted in the video promoting Gemini was this:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46549 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-hail.jpg\" alt=\"Winaico hail testing\" width=\"693\" height=\"128\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-hail.jpg 693w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-hail-300x55.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 693px) 100vw, 693px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However, the data sheets for the WST-375MG just states &#8220;follow IEC standard&#8221;, which is a 25mm ice ball at 83 km\/hr. As mentioned, there doesn&#8217;t appear to be a datasheet available yet for the WSP-333MG.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<br \/>\n<strong>UPDATE: 5.20PM<\/strong> &#8211; Winaico Australia spotted this post and offered and explanation regarding the video vs. the datasheet.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The video was commissioned last year for release in January\/February with an expectation of the additional reliability tests such as the hail test to be completed by 2021. While the MG range and all are other modules use the same frame, glass integrity and back sheet we needed to acquire the additional certificate for the new modules.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WINAICO decided to move up to 1500 V for the system voltage later this year and delayed the MG reliability tests until after the IEC certification. While we are confident that the modules will pass the hail test, we do not want to make claims without the supporting documentation which is why the datasheet is different.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Winaico said the video will be updated to be in line with the IEC standard of hail testing.<br \/>\n&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>In January last year, Winaico&#8217;s WSP MX range was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winaico.com.au\/blog\/solar-panels-designed-to-resist-hail-damage\">successfully tested<\/a> with a 35mm ice ball at 28 meters per second (~100 km\/hr).<\/p>\n<p>Hail may still be fresh in the minds of some Australian solar panel buyers after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/solar-panels-hailstorm-mb1744\/\">freak hail storms in SE Queensland<\/a> back in late October, but no solar panel can be expected to stand up to being pummeled by 14cm hail.<\/p>\n<h2>Winaico&#8217;s Clever Solar Panel Corners<\/h2>\n<p>Solar panels mounted at less than 10 degrees tilt can have issues with dirt scum building up as rain may not be sufficient to clean them. This can have a significant impact on output. One of the interesting features of the Gemini WSP-333MG and other Winaico WSP series solar panels are the corner channels that promote better drainage.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-46550 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-drainage.jpg\" alt=\"Winaico solar panel corner drainage\" width=\"600\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-drainage.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/winaico-drainage-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another option for scenarios where panels will be at less than 10 degrees tilt are frameless solar panels, but these have proven to be difficult to install given their required clamping zones.
