Solar Installation Service

Whether a solar energy system makes sense for you depends on various factors, including your geographical location, your property's solar viability, your current energy consumption, and energy bills. Solar panels can provide significant cost savings over time and contribute to energy independence.

To determine if a solar energy system aligns with your energy needs, consult with our solar panel system installers!

Installing solar panels can be worth the investment for many homeowners. Solar power systems can reduce or even eliminate electricity bills, increase property value, and provide energy security. With the environmental benefits of clean energy, federal tax credits, solar loans, and solar leases available, many find solar panels a financially and ethically compelling choice.

Yes. In fact, if you install solar, you can be cash flow positive immediately because a loan or a lease payment could cost less than the electricity that it offsets.

Solar panels are installed by mounting them onto your roof or a ground mount system using a racking system. This involves securing the panels in place, connecting the electrical wiring to an inverter, and then into your electrical panel to feed electricity into your home and back to the electricity grid. The solar installation process includes assessing the proper angle and positioning to maximize energy production.

The solar panel installation process can take anywhere from one to three days for residential systems, depending on the size of the solar power system and complexity of the installation. This timeline does not include the time required for planning, permits, and inspections, which can add additional weeks or months to the overall project.

Not necessarily, but it's important to work with a certified solar installer (like us!) who understands how to install solar panels without damaging your roof. We can ensure that the installation process, including the attachment of the racking system and the solar panels, complies with the terms of your roof's warranty.

If your roof is near the end of its lifespan or in poor condition, it's recommended to replace it before installing a solar panel system. A new roof ensures that you won't need to remove and reinstall the solar panels shortly after installation, saving you from additional installation costs.

Alternatively, if you have concerns about putting solar on your roof, perhaps you can consider an inline hydro system.

Yes, there are several incentives for installing solar panels, including federal tax credits which can cover a significant portion of the solar system costs. In Massachusetts and Connecticut, for instance, solar panels are property tax exempt, further enhancing the financial benefits. Additionally, many states and local governments offer additional solar incentives, such as reduced property taxes, grants, and renewable energy certificates. These incentives can make solar installations much more affordable and attractive to homeowners.

Solar panels can indeed power a house. The system size is determined by your annual energy usage and the characteristics of your home. Click here for a consultation with a solar installer from our team. They will let you know how many solar panels you will need for your house.

Yes, solar panels really work. Solar cells within the panels convert sunlight into electricity, which can be used to power your home's appliances and lighting. The efficiency of your solar panel system will depend on many factors, including the placement of the panels, the type of panels (e.g., PV panels), and the quality of the installation. Properly installed solar panels by professional solar installation companies can provide a significant portion — if not all — of a household's electricity needs.
