Before contacting a solar panel company, please consider the following points:
1. How big should my solar power system be?
There are various solar systems on the market and the output and cost will be determined by its size. In order to figure this out, check your monthly power bill and compare your energy consumption (kilowatt hours used per day) with what each system can generate.
2. What are my roof specifications?
In order to get the most out of your system, you should place your panels on the north-facing part of your roof. Other things that you should consider are the pitch of the roof and what your roof is made of. For example, a tiled roof may incur a higher installation charge than installing one on a roof that’s made of tin or corrugated iron.
3. Does your house contain asbestos?
If your home has this, your solar panel supplier/installer should be informed as special precautions will need to be taken. You will also have to let them know if your house is more than 1 storey to allow for safety requirements. The location of the switchboard also needs to be considered as the inverter needs to be mounted as close to the switchboard as possible.
4. Is your home surrounded by shade?
If your home is heavily shaded by trees, buildings, or other tall objects, this will affect the performance of your solar power system. Your panels receive maximum sunlight between the hours of 10:00am and 3:00pm. As shade can become a problem, you might have to consider placing your panels in another location.
If you want to make that switch to clean and renewable energy, then please contact Citisolar for all your Solar PV needs.
