Reply To: Insuring solar panels on one owner’s roof

Thank you for these responses. It appears from what our insurance broker has told us, that they are included for insurance purposes as a standard thing once it is known that they are there. I don’t think that the premium had increased as a result, however we would be more than happy to contribute extra to the cost. The big issue seems to be that the EC simply wants it removed completely from the policy because they feel it shouldn’t be covered. Insurance company says No because it’s a roof fixtures and to remove it would be seen as non disclosure.  The sad part is that we have no intention of ever making a claim – we have been and will continue to “self insure” the panels.
