This is the list of frequently asked questions before buying any IYRO products, so we've summarized the answers.
Yes, solar panels still generate power on cloudy or rainy days, although at reduced efficiency. They need sunlight, not direct heat, to produce electricity.
Most high-quality solar panels last 25–30 years with proper maintenance and still generate power even after their warranty period.
That depends on your system size and electricity usage. A properly sized solar system can offset most or all of your electricity bill.
Yes, you can start small and add more panels later, provided your inverter supports expansion.
Panels need occasional cleaning to remove dust and bird droppings for maximum efficiency.
Yes, solar panels are built to withstand rain, hail, and strong winds if installed properly.
A solar tubular battery is a deep-cycle battery designed to store energy from solar panels for long durations, making it ideal for backup during power cuts.
A good quality tubular battery typically lasts 5–7 years, depending on usage and maintenance.
Regularly top up distilled water, keep terminals clean, and avoid deep discharges to ensure long life.
Most come with 3–5 years of warranty depending on the brand.
If it doesn’t hold charge, takes longer to recharge, or backup time reduces, it may need replacement.
Yes, they are recyclable and safer for long-term use compared to lead-acid batteries.
An on-grid inverter connects your solar system directly to the electricity grid. It allows you to use solar power during the day and export surplus energy back to the grid.
No, on-grid systems don’t require batteries. They directly connect to the utility grid.
A good-quality inverter typically lasts 8–12 years with proper maintenance.
Yes, most inverters come with Wi-Fi/mobile apps for real-time monitoring.
On-grid inverters shut down automatically during power cuts to protect utility workers.
Yes, net metering lets you sell excess electricity to the grid and lower your bill.
An off-grid inverter works independently of the grid. It uses batteries to store solar energy and provides power even during blackouts.
Yes, off-grid systems always require batteries to store solar power.
Yes, if designed properly with the right battery bank and solar capacity.
On average, 7–10 years with regular maintenance and proper usage.
Yes, because they need batteries and charge controllers, making them costlier.
It’s ideal for remote areas, farms, or homes with frequent power cuts.
It’s a scheme that gives subsidies to homeowners installing rooftop solar, helping reduce electricity costs.
Eligible households can get up to 300 units of free electricity per month.
Any Indian household with a valid electricity connection and rooftop space can apply.
The subsidy ranges from ₹18,000–₹30,000 per kW, depending on system size and government updates.
You need to apply through the National Rooftop Solar Portal, select an empaneled vendor, and follow the process.
Usually within 30–90 days after installation and approval from the DISCOM.
