Process of Installing Solar Panels

1. Initial Consultation

Our staff will contact you for a first consultation to review your goals, issues, and requirements. Here are some questions you may ask:

Is there anything I need to know about HOA regulations or local ordinances?
What is the recommended number of panels, and where should they be installed?
How much does the installation cost, including equipment, labour, permits, and other fees?
What equipment and installation warranties are offered?
Will you provide customer references or installation examples?

2. Site Visit & Physical Assessment

From the initial consultation to the final switch-on, our meticulous planning ensures that your solar installation meets your needs and expectations.

3. Timeline Estimates

Appointment and Consultation: 1-2 Weeks
Evaluation of the Site and Energy Use: 1 Week
Planning and design: 1-2 weeks
Ordering and Shipping Time: 1-2 Weeks
Installation: 2-3 days
Inspection and Commissioning: 1 Week

4. Design and Consultation

The following factors are considered while designing your solar panel system:

Roof Condition. Roof quality, orientation, and angle should be assessed for solar panel attachment. Make sure the roof can sustain the panels and is structurally sound.
System Orientation and Tilt. Optimize solar panel orientation and tilt angle to maximize sunshine exposure year-round. Panels usually face south (in the northern hemisphere) and are tilted at the site's latitude.
Shading Analysis. Shade analysis can reveal solar panel performance-reducing impediments. Take seasonal shading patterns into account.
Electrical Wiring and Design. Plan wiring, conduits, and electrical connections to reduce energy losses and comply with electrical codes.

5. Solar Installation and Mounting

Attach racking or mounting systems securely to the roof.
Connect solar panels to inverters and route wiring properly to the electrical panel.
Inverter installation. Install inverters in a suitable location.
Ensure proper system grounding to protect against electrical faults.

Our qualified technicians securely install the solar panels to ensure they absorb the most sunlight possible.

How do solar panels work in severe temperatures or high altitudes?

High-altitude solar panels work well because the thinner atmosphere increases the exposure to sunlight. Insulation and well-designed systems can lessen the impact of temperature extremes on system performance.

Can I take my solar panels with me when I move?

There are a few choices for your home solar panels if you’re relocating.

When selling your home, you may leave the solar panels installed. They can boost your home’s value and attract purchasers.
If you invest heavily in solar panels, you may take them to your new home. To do this, you will need professional help from solar companies.
You may negotiate with purchasers to incorporate solar panels in the house sale.
