Here, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions related to solar solutions and roofing services. Whether you are considering installing solar panels or need assistance with your roofing needs, we are here to provide you with the answers you need.
Solar panels work by harnessing the power of the sun to generate electricity. They are made up of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. This electricity is then converted into alternating current (AC) electricity through an inverter, which can be used to power your home or business.
Solar energy offers numerous benefits. Firstly, it is a clean and renewable source of energy, reducing your carbon footprint and helping to combat climate change. Additionally, solar energy can significantly reduce your electricity bills, as you can generate your own electricity. It also provides energy independence, as you are not reliant on the grid. Lastly, solar panels require minimal maintenance and have a long lifespan, making them a cost-effective investment.
Solar panels are designed to be durable and long-lasting. On average, they can last for 25 to 30 years or even longer with proper maintenance. Most manufacturers provide warranties ranging from 20 to 25 years, ensuring the performance and reliability of the panels.
Solar panels can be installed on various types of roofs, including asphalt shingles, metal roofs, tile roofs, and flat roofs. However, the suitability of your roof for solar installation may depend on factors such as its orientation, shading, and structural integrity. Our team of experts can assess your roof and provide you with the best solution for your specific needs.
Solar panels are relatively low-maintenance. Regular cleaning to remove dirt and debris is recommended to ensure optimal performance. Additionally, it is advisable to have a professional inspection every few years to check for any potential issues and ensure the panels are functioning efficiently.
While solar panels perform best in areas with abundant sunlight, they can still generate electricity in areas with limited sunlight. Advances in technology have made solar panels more efficient, allowing them to produce electricity even in cloudy or overcast conditions. Our team can assess your location and provide you with an estimate of the energy production you can expect.
