Dead inverter in Lower Paxton? Installer out of business? Roof project in Hershey? Solar Medics repairs, detaches and resets, and upgrades solar systems of any brand across Dauphin County — from Harrisburg rowhome roofs to the farms past Peters Mountain. We're based in Lancaster County, and the capital region is a standing part of our service territory.
Plenty of Dauphin County homeowners went solar during the boom years — and plenty have since discovered their installer's phone number leads nowhere. The company folded, got bought out, or simply stopped answering. Meanwhile the monitoring app shows red, the inverter blinks an error code, and the electric bill creeps back up. Solar Medics exists for exactly this moment. We diagnose and repair solar systems no matter who installed them or what brand is on the roof — no sales pitch attached.
Our home base is Mountville, in Lancaster County, and Dauphin County sits squarely inside our regular service territory — most of the Harrisburg area is a 40-to-55-minute run from our shop. We schedule capital-region work in efficient routes, whether that's a micro-inverter swap in Colonial Park, a panel detach and reset ahead of a Steelton roof replacement, or a battery retrofit in Hummelstown. We won't pretend we're around the corner; we will show up when we say we will.
Every case starts the same way: a free Solar Triage Call. Tell us the symptoms — zero production, one dead panel, a monitoring app that went dark, squirrels chewing wires — and we'll tell you honestly what the likely cause is and whether a house call makes sense. It's a phone consult, not a sales appointment, and it's the only thing we'll ever call free.
PPL Electric Utilities delivers power to most of Dauphin County, including Harrisburg, Hershey, and the upper county, while pockets near the county lines fall under Met-Ed — and Middletown Borough runs its own municipal electric system. Whoever your utility is, we handle the paperwork side of repairs and upgrades: interconnection updates after equipment swaps, restoring Permission to Operate on systems that lost it, net-metering questions, and getting eligible systems registered so their SRECs actually earn money.
Dauphin County solar wears out in different ways depending on where you live. In Harrisburg proper, rowhome and city roofs mean tight arrays where one failed optimizer can drag down a whole string — and where staging a repair takes more planning than a wide suburban ranch in Lower Paxton or Linglestown. Along the river, Steelton, Highspire, and Middletown systems see their share of Susquehanna Valley storm fronts. And in the upper county past Peters Mountain — Halifax, Millersburg, Elizabethville — rural properties often mean long wire runs, detached garages, and Wi-Fi monitoring that dropped offline years ago without anyone noticing. We treat all of it.

Yes — that's the core of what we do. A lot of capital-region systems were installed by companies that no longer exist, and those owners often have working equipment that just needs a diagnosis and a part. We service any brand — Enphase, SolarEdge, APsystems, and others — regardless of who installed it, and we can take over monitoring so problems get caught sooner next time.
We do. We're based in Mountville, and the capital region is a normal part of our territory, not a stretch. We make scheduled service runs up the Route 283 corridor and route Harrisburg-area jobs together so scheduling is efficient. We won't claim to be minutes away; we will give you an honest arrival window and keep it.
Yes. Panel detach and reset is steady work for us across the capital region, especially in older Harrisburg-area neighborhoods where roofs are coming due. We remove the array and racking, coordinate timing with your roofer, then reinstall, reseal, and recommission the system once the new roof is on. It's also a natural moment to replace tired micro-inverters or add critter guards while everything is accessible.
Yes. Most Dauphin County homes are in PPL Electric territory, and we routinely handle interconnection updates, Permission to Operate remediation, and net-metering questions with PPL after repairs or equipment changes. If you're in a Met-Ed pocket or served by Middletown Borough's municipal electric department, the process differs a bit, but the principle is the same: we sort out the paperwork so your repaired system is compliant, connected, and credited — and we can help register it for SRECs.
Yes — battery retrofits are steady work for us in the capital region. We install Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, and SolarEdge batteries on existing systems of any brand, and we can also install a home battery even if you don't have solar at all. For homes that lose power in summer storms, a battery keeps the essentials running and, paired with solar, recharges when the grid is down.
