MK3 works on the system you already own.

The company does not use repair inquiries as a funnel to sell a new solar installation. If diagnosis supports a repair path, MK3 explains the affected equipment and next steps. If a component cannot reasonably be serviced, that limitation should be explained rather than hidden behind a replacement pitch.

Questions homeowners ask

Solar repair FAQs

Straight answers, with warranty and repairability determined by the actual equipment and applicable terms.

The goal is to identify the fault or narrow it to the affected component or system area. Some problems require follow-up testing, parts, manufacturer access, or additional work.

The diagnostic fee is $250 and includes the trip fee; there is no separate trip charge. If additional repair work is recommended after diagnosis, MK3 provides a customer proposal before that work proceeds.

Yes, MK3 is built around existing-system service. Serviceability still depends on the equipment and system condition.

Have the service address, equipment brand, installer name if known, monitoring screenshots, error codes, and a description of when the issue started.
