Solar Panel Installation in Cheia

About this service

Installing a photovoltaic system means sizing it against the household's consumption, fixing the mounting structure to the roof or ground, mounting the panels, running the DC cabling, installing the inverter and protection panel, then commissioning the system and filing the grid connection paperwork. An electrician holding an ANRE certificate is required to carry out the electrical work legally and to sign the documentation for prosumer status. Beyond the installation itself, specialists check that the roof structure can take the extra load, choose the right inverter — on-grid, hybrid, or off-grid —, fit battery storage systems, and set up production monitoring. A properly installed system generates power for 25-30 years with minimal intervention.

What to check before hiring a solar panel installation

Compare at least three quotes for the same installed capacity
Ask for access to the production monitoring app from commissioning onwards
Ask for a copy of the electrician's ANRE certificate before signing the contract

Ask for the wiring diagram and the datasheets for the panels and inverter

Frequently Asked Questions

What maintenance do photovoltaic panels need?

Very little: a clean once a year or every two years, a check of the mountings and connections, plus keeping an eye on output in the inverter's app. A sudden drop in yield usually points to shading, a faulty string, or dirty panels.

What warranty do I get on the installation in Cheia?

The workmanship warranty is usually 2-5 years. Panels carry a 12-15 year product warranty and a 25-30 year performance warranty, and inverters 5-12 years, all provided separately by the manufacturers.

How much does solar panel installation cost in Cheia?

Labour for an on-grid 3-5 kW system typically starts at 3,500 RON and reaches 7,500 RON in Cheia, depending on roof type, the distance to the electrical panel, and the complexity of the mounting structure. Equipment is quoted separately.

What system size do I need?

Sizing starts from your last 12 months of consumption. As a rough guide, a house using 3,000-4,000 kWh a year is covered by a 3-4 kW system, while one with a heat pump or an electric car needs 6 kW or more. The installer works out the exact figure from your bills.

Do I need a building permit for photovoltaic panels?

For systems mounted on the roof of an existing building without structural changes, a building permit is generally not required. Grid connection under prosumer status does, however, require a file submitted to the distribution operator.

What does being a prosumer mean?

A prosumer generates electricity for their own use and feeds the surplus into the grid. The status is obtained through a file submitted to the distribution operator, and the energy fed in is offset against the energy consumed, under the ANRE rules in force.
