Houses and small systems
Rooftop systems on single-family houses and small buildings. A short flight over the full module area and a concise report for the owner.
Illustrative use case
Drone thermal inspection of photovoltaic systems
Locate thermal anomalies. Plan the next check of the installation.
Visible-light photos combined with thermal imaging help point out modules that need attention. Results are delivered in a clear report used by the system owner and the service team. We work in Warsaw and the Mazovia region, with projects elsewhere in Poland by arrangement.
We accept enquiries. Dates and scope of each inspection are confirmed individually.
Applications
Types of installation
Roofs of companies, halls and warehouses
Systems on flat and pitched commercial roofs. A review of the whole roof area without the service team stepping onto it, with the flight organised together with the facility manager.
Solar farms
Larger ground-mounted systems. The flight follows a plan divided into sections and tables so every observation can be tied to a specific location.
All installation types are available on enquiry. Every job is qualified individually.
What we look at
- local overheating of modules and temperature differences between them
- unusual thermal patterns visible on the thermograms
- visible mechanical damage, soiling and deposits
- shading and vegetation affecting module operation
We describe observations and suspicions that require verification, not a confirmed cause of a fault. A thermogram alone cannot establish micro-cracks, PID, polarisation or inverter faults.
What you receive
- a PDF report with a structured list of observations
- RGB photos and the matching thermograms
- location of each observation according to the agreed plan or numbering
- a description of anomalies together with the limits of the measurement
- a list of points for further verification by the service team
Scope and dates are agreed before the job. The report is not a certificate and does not replace electrical measurements.

Process
How the inspection runs
- 01
Location and system details
You send the address, the size of the system and how it is mounted. We check whether a flight is possible at that location.
- 02
Agreeing scope and conditions
We agree the recording scope, how observations are numbered, the report format and the conditions under which the flight is to take place.
- 03
Data capture
We fly over the installation, recording visible-light photos and thermal material according to the agreed plan.
- 04
Analysis and report
We organise the material, describe the anomalies observed and hand over a report with a list of points to verify.
Conditions required for the survey
We fly with suitable and stable solar irradiance, with the system operating, without precipitation and with wind suitable both for the measurement and for the flight. The final date is confirmed according to the conditions on the day. We do not declare conformity with industry standards and we do not issue certificates.
Price
Pricing is individual and depends on:
- system capacity and number of modules
- site location and travel
- system layout: roof or ground, number of roof planes or sections
- flight conditions and airspace restrictions at the site
- the depth of the analysis
- the format and level of detail of the report
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you inspect small residential systems?
Yes, we accept enquiries about rooftop systems on single-family houses. Every job is qualified individually — location, system size and whether a flight is possible.
What weather conditions are needed?
The survey is carried out with suitable and stable solar irradiance, with the system operating, without precipitation and with wind suitable both for the measurement and for the flight. The final date is confirmed according to current conditions.
What does the report contain?
A PDF report describing the anomalies observed, RGB photos and thermograms, the location of each observation, a note on the limits of the measurement and a list of points for the service team to verify.
Does the inspection replace electrical measurements or a service visit?
No. The report points out places that need attention and further verification. It is not a certificate and does not replace electrical measurements or service work.
What details do you need for a quote?
The location of the system, approximate capacity in kWp or the number of modules, whether it is roof- or ground-mounted, and the purpose of the survey.
When can the inspection take place?
The date is set individually once the scope is confirmed and conditions are checked. We accept enquiries on an ongoing basis.
