For the rest, we'll tell you honestly and discuss alternatives like ground mounts or carport arrays. ### My solar system's output dropped: is that normal for Ohio? Seasonal variation is normal. Ohio systems produce less in winter and more in summer. But a sudden or unexplained drop usually indicates a real problem: a failed optimizer, tripped breaker, or shading from new tree growth. We can compare your Akron system's actual output to expected benchmarks and diagnose the gap. ### Do you repair solar systems installed by other companies? Yes.
