Solar Power FAQs: Your Top Questions Answered
Switching to solar is a smart investment, but it’s natural to have questions. Below, we address the most common concerns to help you make an informed decision.
Solar panels are low-maintenance but benefit from occasional cleaning (every 6–12 months) to remove dust, leaves, or snow. Inspect for shading issues or damage, and ensure inverters/batteries (if installed) are functioning optimally. Most systems include monitoring apps to track performance.
Most homes are eligible if they have:
Adequate roof space (shade-free and structurally sound).
Proper orientation (south-facing roofs in the Northern Hemisphere maximize efficiency).
Local sunlight conditions (we assess this during a free site survey).
Yes! Modern systems are modular, so you can add more panels, batteries, or upgrade your inverter later. We design systems with future expansion in mind—just ensure your inverter can handle the additional capacity.
Residential installations typically take 1–3 days, depending on system size and complexity. Commercial projects may require 1–2 weeks. Permitting and approvals can add 2–6 weeks beforehand (we handle the paperwork for you!).
Key considerations include:
Energy usage (review past electricity bills).
Roof condition (age, material, and orientation).
Budget and financing options (upfront cost vs. long-term savings).
Local incentives (tax credits, net metering, or rebates).
