APsystems Extends Standard Warranty to 25 Years for DS3 and QT2 Microinverters, Underscoring Long-Term Reliability
/in Events, General News, Press ReleasesAPsystems, a global leader in solar microinverter technology, is proud to announce that its DS3 and QT2 series microinverters now come with a 25-year standard warranty in Canada. This major upgrade—expanding from the previous 10-year standard warranty with an optional 15-year extension—underscores APsystems’ commitment to long-term product reliability and customer satisfaction.
The new 25-year standard warranty officially went into effect in May 2025, covering all DS3 and QT2 microinverters moving forward. With this enhancement, APsystems eliminates the need for customers to take additional steps to secure extended coverage, ensuring that all units are backed by 25 years of comprehensive protection from the outset.
“Our products are designed to last, and now our warranty fully reflects that,” said Doug Hewitt, Director at APsystems. “By extending our standard warranty to 25 years, we’re not only demonstrating the durability of our microinverter technology but also making it more convenient for our customers—eliminating extra paperwork and providing the peace of mind that comes with long-term coverage.”
The new warranty coverage applies to all DS3 and QT2 microinverters sold in Canada and took effect on May 1, 2025, for all new shipments from APsystems. Units sold prior to this date will continue to follow the original extended warranty process. An updated price list reflecting the associated warranty costs will be provided.
The extension of APsystems’ warranty reflects the company’s unwavering confidence in the longevity and performance of its microinverters, engineered for high efficiency, durability, and ease of installation in both residential and commercial applications.
As one of the leading innovators in Module-Level Power Electronics (MLPE), APsystems continues to deliver cutting-edge microinverter solutions that maximize energy production, streamline installation, and enhance system monitoring.

The Future of Solar & Storage: How APsystems Is Using AI to Build a Smarter Energy Ecosystem
/in Article, General NewsIn today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, artificial intelligence is transforming the way we generate, store, and manage power. From intelligent manufacturing to real-time optimization, AI is enabling breakthroughs across industries—and APsystems is at the forefront of this shift. By combining advanced solar and energy storage technologies with AI innovation, the company is reshaping what’s possible in residential, commercial, and DIY energy solutions.
Smart Integration of Solar, Storage, and AI
APsystems has long championed the convergence of solar and storage—now supercharged by AI. In the micro energy segment, the company’s EZ1 and EZHI series offer easy-to-install, plug-and-play systems that empower users to achieve energy independence on their own terms.
For residential applications, high-current 20A microinverters seamlessly pair with the APstorage ELS/ELT battery series to meet the dynamic energy needs of today’s households. In the C&I space, the three-phase QT2 microinverter delivers efficient, flexible performance for businesses aiming to lower costs and maximize output.
At every stage of the energy journey—pre-sales, installation, and ongoing operations—APsystems is embedding AI into its ecosystem. From intelligent design tools to smart energy management and AI-driven customer support, the goal is simple: increase system performance, reduce complexity, and elevate the user experience.
AI in Action: Optimizing Energy Management
One of the most compelling examples of AI at work is APsystems’ “BESS AI” model. This advanced algorithm uses deep learning to analyze solar production, energy usage, and regional electricity pricing. It then generates a custom battery charging strategy for each home, which is automatically sent to the user’s energy storage system.
The result? Smarter use of stored power, reduced reliance on the grid, and greater savings—especially in regions with time-of-use pricing. For residential users, it’s a game-changer.
Designing Smarter with AP Designer
To simplify system planning, APsystems developed AP Designer, a powerful AI-driven solar design tool. By integrating satellite imagery, image recognition, and 3D modeling, the platform can assess rooftops, tree coverage, and shading to deliver one-click solar layouts with speed and precision.
The tool also produces professional-grade system diagrams, BOMs, cost-benefit analyses, and simulation reports—helping solar professionals cut design time while increasing accuracy.
AI-Powered Customer Support with APbot
Customer support has also evolved. APbot, APsystems’ AI assistant, uses large language models and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to provide fast, accurate answers to customer questions across pre-sales, installation, and post-sales phases.
Built on a comprehensive technical and product knowledge base, APbot supports multiple deployment options—from embedded web chat to integration with the EMA platform and mobile app. It also includes smart features like contextual follow-ups, video recommendations, and multilingual support for global markets—all monitored in real time to ensure quality and compliance.
A Company-Wide AI Strategy
AI isn’t just a product feature—it’s part of APsystems’ company DNA. Through internal programs like the “+AI Application Research Institute” and “AI Open Day,” the company is investing in AI literacy, streamlining workflows, and identifying new ways to bring intelligent automation into daily operations.
By committing to real-world, value-driven AI adoption, APsystems is expanding its “Smart Energy + AI” ecosystem to deliver a more connected, efficient, and sustainable future.

Geddes & Murphy Electric Ltd’s Award-Winning Barn Rooftop Installation at Hill Peak Farms
/in Awards, Case Studies, General NewsIn the rural heart of Middle Musquodoboit, Nova Scotia, sustainability and performance come together in a standout solar project by Geddes & Murphy Electric Ltd. Their 135kW DC barn rooftop installation at Hill Peak Farms has earned the title of Commercial Project of the Year in APsystems’ 2024 Canadian Installation Awards—thanks to both its technical execution and energy impact.
Designed with precision and purpose, the system utilizes 150 APsystems DS3-S microinverters to bring the farming operation nearly to net zero on electrical energy use. With over a decade in the industry, Geddes & Murphy’s experience shows in the results.
“We’ve installed around 1,000 APsystems microinverters and they’ve produced more energy than our estimates almost every time,” said Scott Geddes, Owner of Geddes & Murphy Electric Ltd. “The ease of installation, pricing, and performance are hard to beat.”
The installation process capitalized on APsystems’ electrician-friendly design. Trunk cables enabled simple string layouts, while the ability to run AC power directly from the roof streamlined system tie-in. For a high-demand farm setting, this kind of efficiency makes a real difference.
Even post-installation, the system continues to impress. “Our customers are always pleased with how quickly we can install and with how well the systems perform,” Geddes added. “The monitoring app is user-friendly and lets them track performance right down to each panel.”
Backed by reliability, minimal warranty replacements, and an easy RMA process, APsystems microinverters have become a go-to for the team at Geddes & Murphy. The company is already looking ahead, continuing to integrate APsystems into future builds across residential, commercial, and agricultural sites.
From the fields of Nova Scotia to the forefront of Canada’s solar movement, this award-winning project is a testament to the power of good design, great technology, and a commitment to getting the job done right.
