Please help in solar installation sizing!

Folks may I ask how many times have you needed to get your panels serviced after the initial install and the first few adjustments post installation. The reason I ask is if I go with the small business owner I will save quite a bit and get the config I want. But if the business goes away,I would be in a dilemma how to get any issues taken care of at a later point. I wonder if the panel manufacturer addresses any issues with underproduction or issues requiring some diagnostics and/or adjustments. Kind of a open ended question but your thoughts on this are much appreciated.

i think you just asked the most important question. From my research the maintenance need for solar panel was very low. I opted for the local company that might not be around in 10 years...

I opted for a local company. Particularly if we have equipment from a reasonably sustainable manufacturer, we should not have a significant problem.

Solar needs very little maintenance. Mine has needed none since clearing up initial installation glitches. Occasional (depending on circumstances) panel surface cleaning may help production.
