Definitions and boundaries that keep the review data honest, so you can read ratings and maintenance notes without guessing what they actually cover.
Only submissions tied to a confirmed installation record or a service invoice are marked as verified. We cross-check the address, system type, and installation date with the technician's log before publishing. Reviews without this paper trail appear in a separate unverified section, so you can tell the difference at a glance.
Efficiency ratings come from user-reported hot water output compared against the collector area and tank capacity listed on the system label. We do not run lab tests. Ratings reflect real household usage, which means shower habits, inlet water temperature, and roof orientation all influence the number you see.
Yes, but only as a separate score. The installation rating looks at pipe routing, roof mounting, insulation work, and how well the team followed the manufacturer's manual. It does not measure the hardware itself. A poor installation score can drag down the overall rating even if the collector performs well.
Seasonal notes are tagged by the month the user submitted them, not by the month they installed the system. This matters because a review written in December about winter output is different from one written in June about summer performance. We keep those tags separate so you can filter by the season that matches your location.
Warranty claim reports include the brand, the part that failed, and the time between filing and resolution. We do not publish the claim amount or the settlement value. Users describe the process, the paperwork required, and whether the technician visited on site or asked for photos first. That gives you a sense of the effort involved without exposing financial details.
