Re: [RE-wrenches] Enphase installer compensation M-190's discontinued

2017-07-06 Thread Chris Schaefer
I dumped Enphase this season for APS. Simply put, half the equipment with
almost half the time to install. and a much lower cost point. If anyone is
at InterSolar I suggest lighting up the Enphase reps about the M190 issue.
Make some noise. Then step over to the APS booth.

Correction - I think it started at 15 years with labor included. I don't
see how they can renege on that now. In fact, they had a power guarantee,
too. They would reimburse people for lost energy as a result of warranty
issues.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Enphase installer compensation M-190's discontinued

2017-07-06 Thread penobscotsolar
I believe that I found out for certain. I spoke to two different people at
Enphase and was "assured" that I would not be compensated as of June 1,
2017 for any M-190 replacements. I told them I would be purchasing
SolarEdge, not Enphase, from now on until they felt that, as I do, they
were breaking their part of the bargain.

Re: [RE-wrenches] Enphase installer compensation M-190's discontinued

2017-07-06 Thread Jason Szumlanski
This seems odd. I thought they had a 25 year warranty originally with labor
compensation, then went to 15 year at some point with no labor
compensation. We have lots of M190s out there that were sold with labor
coverage, so this would be important to know for certain.

Hi all,
   For those who have installed M-190's, Enphase has now discontinued as
of June 1st any installer compensation for replacing failed
microinverters with that designation. We have a system we installed in
2011 that I found out today, after replacing the three failed M-190's,
that I was on my own.fyi
