No inverter in the fleet publishes a year-by-year performance or output guarantee the way panels and batteries do - this shows the covered term against the market-typical term and where every scored inverter’s term lands (grey dots, sized by model count), plus what the warranty actually includes.

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.

Strong evidence coverage

25 of 25 scored criteria link directly to a published source.

Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not a guarantee that a claim is correct.

How far the evidence reaches

2 of 5 questions with checkable rows have a row beyond the maker's claim.

  • Output4 checkable rows, none beyond the maker's claim
  • Endurance1 of 2 checkable rows beyond the maker's claimMaker-only: 2 design facts
  • Safety1 of 2 checkable rows beyond the maker's claim
  • Backing1 checkable row, not beyond the maker's claimMaker-only: 2 maker's commitments
  • Fit6 checkable rows, none beyond the maker's claimMaker-only: 6 design facts
  • FootprintNot scored for inverters
  • Third-party source
  • Certified or regulator-listed
  • Manufacturer claim
  • Reviewed absence

Each bar is one question's checkable rows for this product at true share, stronger tiers first; hatching marks a reviewed absence: not published, we looked. Maker-only rows (warranty terms and design facts that rest on the maker's own documents) are counted under each question, never dropped. review.solar has measured none of these rows itself. How the evidence puzzle works

    US Support Note

    After this change
    On 19 October 2026 the Solplanet country and language menu had no United States or North America entry, solplanet.net/us/ redirected to a news article, and the product sitemap listed the ASW H-S2 series under other regional paths but none under a US path. No official US market listing exists, so the US overlay for the ASW H-S2 family (scored ASW6000H-S2) is unavailable for lack of a US market presence. ASW S-G2 is a different family and is not transferred.

    DE Warranty scope

    Before
    Germany; no German inverter warranty naming ASW6000H-S2 was attached, so six-field terms are not transferred from the Australian AISWEI instrument.
    After
    Germany; AISWEI's German-language Factory Quality Warranty Terms for Overseas Territory (Version 2.0, published 15 September 2023, file S-PM21-006 V2.01 DE) name the ASW H-S2 series, which includes ASW6000H-S2, and cover the international market excluding mainland China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Article 2.1.1 lists inverter options of 5 years, 10 years, or 5 years plus a 5-year extended period, subject to the purchase contract; which applies to a given German purchase is not publicly established.

    DE Warranty conditions

    Before
    Not previously recorded
    After
    labour: Within the standard period AISWEI assumes the costs of quality warranty services, including spare parts, materials and shipment (clause 4.2). For the European Union, excluding its associated islands and overseas territories, taxes, customs and duties and travel and accommodation costs of AISWEI personnel for on-site services are also included in those costs and assumed by AISWEI (clause 4.2). The document states no reimbursement of installer labour costs.; registration: The standard warranty period starts at the earlier of the completed first installation of the product or six months after AISWEI's shipment dispatch date (Article 2.1.1). The Factory Quality Warranty Terms for Overseas Territory of AISWEI (German edition, Version 2.0, published 15 September 2023) state no separate product registration requirement.; remedy: Within the standard warranty period of 5 or 10 years under Article 2.1.1 (unless the purchase contract agrees otherwise; the instrument does not say which option applies to a given purchase), AISWEI decides, free of charge, which one or more of these remedies to provide: remote services, return of the defective product to its designated factory for repair, on-site service, and replacement with a product of equivalent value that may be refurbished (Articles 4.1 and 4.2). In the extended period, AISWEI covers only spare parts, materials or a replacement product (Article 4.3). If the remaining original warranty period of a repaired or replaced product is under one year, it receives a one-year period that starts when the customer receives it (Article 5.3.2).; removal reinstallation: The Factory Quality Warranty Terms for Overseas Territory of AISWEI (German edition, Version 2.0, published 15 September 2023, file S-PM21-006 V2.01 DE) state no removal or reinstallation cover, so no removal or reinstallation entitlement is established.; transferability: Where an extended warranty applies, it is bound to the customer and the exact inverter and may not be transferred to another third party or applied to another product without AISWEI's written consent (Articles 2.2.4 and 2.2.5). The instrument does not state transferability of the standard warranty.; transport: Within the standard warranty period, AISWEI bears the warranty service costs, including shipment of the defective product and of any replacement product, and delivers a repaired or replacement product to the agreed delivery place in the warranty territory at its own cost (Articles 4.2 and 4.6). For the factory repair and replacement remedies, the customer must return the defective product to AISWEI's designated factory within the period AISWEI sets in writing (Article 4.4). In the extended period, AISWEI covers only spare parts, materials or a replacement product and does not cover shipping and transport costs (Article 4.3).

    After this change
    The Solplanet /us/products/asw-h-s2-series path returns 404. A /us/ hostname path that opens a news article is not a United States product catalogue. ASW S-G2 is a different family and is not this H-S2 record. Re-audited 2026-09-22: this determination rests solely on the fetch failure recorded above, with no independently reachable regional catalogue, store or archived copy consulted. Downgraded to not_reviewed - unavailable was not confirmed, and this pass did not re-fetch to confirm available either.
