Frequently asked questions

  • Whether or not you receive a utility bill after installing solar panels depends on factors such as your utility company, the size of your solar system, and your electricity usage. In general, if your solar system is appropriately sized and your electricity usage remains unchanged after going solar, it is likely that you will not have an annual utility bill. However, this outcome is subject to variations based on the specific circumstances and agreements with your utility provider.

  • Research indicates that residences equipped with solar energy systems tend to command higher selling prices compared to those without such installations. However, it's important to note that the increase in property value is typically applicable to homeowners who own their solar panels, rather than leasing them. In many regions, the boost in property value resulting from solar panel installation often surpasses the increase associated with renovating other parts of the home, making solar a particularly valuable investment.

  • Typically, the timeframe for solar system installation is approximately 90 days, starting from the moment you initiate the process until the system becomes operational. However, it's worth noting that the duration can vary depending on the specific municipality and utility involved, as they may require more or less time for permit approval and interconnection applications. This variation can result in a potential deviation of up to 60 days from the average timeline.

  • Our panels typically come with manufacturer warranties that provide coverage for a duration of 20 to 30 years, while inverters typically have warranties ranging from 12 to 25 years. These warranties encompass the main components of the solar system, ensuring protection and support for an extended period.

  • Net metering is a billing arrangement or policy that allows solar panel owners to receive credit for the excess electricity they generate and feed back into the grid. When a solar panel system produces more electricity than is consumed on-site, the excess energy is sent back to the grid, and the utility company credits the owner's account. Net metering enables solar panel owners to effectively "bank" their excess energy and utilize it when needed, resulting in potential cost savings on their utility bills.

  • During daylight hours, solar panels capture and convert the energy from sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. Since most households and businesses operate on alternating current (AC) electricity, an inverter is employed to convert the DC electricity into usable AC electricity. Once converted, the electricity can be utilized within your property or, alternatively, sent back to the electric grid for others to use. In this way, solar panels enable the generation of electricity that can power your home or contribute to the wider electrical network.

  • Solar power, similar to other forms of renewable energy, offers numerous environmental advantages. Adopting solar energy helps diminish the release of greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change, and it leads to a reduction in harmful air pollutants like sulfur dioxide and particulate matter. These pollutants are known to have adverse effects on human health. By embracing solar power, we can actively contribute to a cleaner environment and mitigate the negative impacts associated with climate change and air pollution.

  • By installing a solar energy system on your property, you can achieve multiple benefits. Firstly, you can experience savings on your electricity bills and secure your rate, shielding yourself from potential future increases in electricity costs. Moreover, the installation of a solar system enhances the value of your home. Additionally, the Federal Government offers a tax credit amounting to 30% of the total system cost, further incentivizing the adoption of solar energy.
