Your solar system should be mostly maintenance free over its 25+ year life. Rain and snow will generally keep the panels clean and free of debris. Removing snow is not recommended since you risk damaging the panels. Since they are made of smooth tempered glass, snow slides off the panels as sunlight begins to warm the panels. Even if your internet or reporting system goes down, the panels will keep producing and your electric meter will run backwards. It is rare for the panels to stop functioning.
