Have you ever considered whether getting solar panels on your house might help with your finances? We have all seen the ads promoting solar, but how can you know if solar is right for you? I am here to help! There are several things we look at when determining whether a customer and their home are right for solar.
- How much sun does the roof get? The roof needs to have sunlight a certain percentage of the day to make it worthwhile to get solar.
- What is the orientation (N-S-E-W) of the roof?
- What is the pitch (steepness) of the roof?
- How much electricity is the homeowner currently using? Any changes coming up, such as people moving in or out, buying an electric car, or installing a hot tub?
- Do you own the home or rent? Do you plan to move within a few years, or stay longer?
- What state and local incentives are available in your area?
These are some the the questions we start off with, to help us determine with solar is a good option for you!
Once we know that solar would be a good plan, we make a second appointment to go over a proposed design for your property. We would tell you about all of the financing options so you can make the best decision for your budget and lifestyle.
Thank you for thinking about solar! I am excited to help homeowners control their monthly electric bill and to fight global warming with green technology.
