Some Things to Consider
– Will the company still be in business 15 years
from now if I have a problem?
– Are they located in the US or will I have to
communicate with China to collect my Warranty?
– Is the company financially mature enough
to offer this warranty?
Panel warranties vary from company to company.
They are required to have a 20 year warranty but most have a 25 year warranty. Look at the warranty information. Many drop 10% in the first year and 20% in the tenth year. This is called a tiered warranty. Look for a linear warranty. It goes down a little each year instead of dropping all at once. The best warranty in the world will not mean a thing if there is no company to honor it.
