Got questions? Let us shed some light.
How do I know if my home is suitable for solar panels?
Solar panels are designed to work in all climates, but some factors will influence their effectiveness in your home.
Firstly, consider your roof’s orientation and available space. In an ideal world, your roof would face south or southwest with minimal shading throughout the day and be big enough for panel installation.
Next, consider your home’s energy consumption – solar panels are most valuable to households with high electricity usage.
Our solar install partners can provide a comprehensive evaluation of your home’s suitability, factoring in roof condition, local climate, and any regulatory requirements.
How long does the installation process typically take?
It varies based on factors such as system size and local permitting requirements.
Typically, though, the process involves a site assessment and design phase, during which the installer evaluates your roof’s condition and designs a customised system. Next, it’s time to get the right permits, which can take a few weeks, depending on your location. Then, you’re ready for installation, which includes mounting panels on your roof and connecting them to your electrical system.
A good solar installer will lead you through the process to make it quick and simple. No high-pressure tactics are needed.
What are the benefits of switching to renewable energy?
There are many!
Firstly, renewable energies like solar reduce your reliance on fossil fuels, helping to combat climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, solar energy is sustainable and abundant, providing a reliable source of electricity while decreasing your carbon footprint.
From a financial point of view, investing in renewable energy can lead to long-term savings on energy bills and increase the value of your home.
Are solar panels really worth it?
Yes, solar panels can be a worthwhile investment for many homeowners. While the initial cost of installation may seem significant, solar panels offer long-term financial benefits. By generating your own electricity, you can reduce your monthly energy bills, leading to significant savings over time. Solar panels also increase the value of your home and can provide a reliable source of electricity even during power outages.
How much maintenance do solar panels require?
The good news is that solar panels require very little upkeep to keep them performing at their best. We recommend that you simply clean your panels from time to time to remove dirt, dust, and debris. You can inspect them at the same time you do this, looking out for damage or signs of wear and tear, such as cracks or loose connections.
