As I posted elsewhere, I have my own ongoing unpleasantness with SunPower (who took major shortcuts on the install, presumably hoping I wouldn't notice, or that they'd be able to bluster me into submission and then made false claims when prior attempts to blow me off failed.... )
In the end, I a local Electrical Engineer who does Solar Installation audits. He found numerous contract, professional standards, and code violations. Issues include a burned/melted breaker connecting PV array to Main load center left in-place for 2 months (fortunately didn't burn house down)
So... time will tell what happens.
Fortunately, I noticed issues on Day 1, and have yet to pay a penny for my system. so I have leverage, and I suspect they realize I have a really good claim, so maybe that is why they haven't made situation worse for themselves by filing a lien. IN my case, I am SUPER relieved I was willing to pay extra for a single-throat-to-choke setup where contract, installation, and lifetime support and performance guarantee all by same company [it may not work out in the end, but I could have paid and been stuck with vendors pointing fingers at each other ... so I chalk my approach up as a win for me].
Your description does not indicate exactly what your issue are. Are there aspects of the system working fine?
In your situation, I'd start with what your expectations were, what was actually documented (vs verbal conversation), and then what made it into contract(s). Often the case is homeowner has expectations, and conversation, but those 'requirements' don't make it into 'standard' contracts. Turning it into a 'he said, she said' situation with no way to prove intent or what was actually promised (in my case, I have lots of TXTs and emails to back me up). If the issue is a mismatch from your expectations and installed system operation, then you have to determine if you are willing to put into the time to fully document the situation, with incontrovertible 'proof', or if you may need to suck it up as a learning experience.
Is this a case of the PV array working but the battery system not working?
Now, if the system is failing to operate at all, that is different. In which case, a professional 3rd party installation inspection may be just the ticket if the installers still in business (their contractors license is at risk if they really screwed up). I should warn ... it took us months to find the right person/company to do such an audit, we ended up getting the reference from a law firm specializing in residential solar lawsuits .. such a law form might be a good place to start looking. In our case, the person is a licensed contractor, master electrician, etc.
Based on above comments, another consideration is how much input you had into system components vs your installer? I ask in case you demanded a certain component (ex Generac), and it is that part having issues
And what warranty do you have? Did your contract provide an entire system/performance warranty? The beauty of options is ability to spec a system that is just right for a given situation. The downside when doing such is the owner is then typically responsible for making sure all the parts play well with each other over time.
Could your system have been designed to include battery backup coverage for the well pump? probably, but possibly at significantly higher cost.
Depending on setup, a well pump may easily be considered non-critical. At the house I grew up at , the well pump wouldn't have been considered critical (for most of the time), as water pump into storage tank that gravity fed house. The well pump not working for a while, even days, wouldn't be an issue (until much later when my parents switched to using a much smaller pressurized tank instead)... my point only being that .. it depends.
