Solar panels are on the rise as a clean, efficient energy source for homeowners. However, those who haven’t made the switch can find it intimidating. If you’re looking into buying solar panels for your home, you may have questions. How does it work? What goes into planning a solar electrical system? Installing solar power in your home involves research. Therefore, we broke it down into an easy step-by-step process.

Potential Solar Energy
Before getting solar panels, assess your potential solar energy. First, look into mapping services and online tools. These give homeowners information on how much of the Sun’s energy reaches their home. Solar electrical systems use what we call “photovoltaic,” or PV, technology to make electricity out of sunlight. PV technology can use both direct and scattered light to do this.

If you want a professional opinion, Fafco Solar consultations can assess potential solar energy for free. We do this by looking at factors like shade, orientation, and your electrical needs.

Understanding the Details
It’s time to set your plan in motion. Determine what system matches your home’s needs. After that, your installer can help you obtain proper permits. Be sure to understand how utility bills and net metering works, too. We choose the right location and orientation for your system. This ensures it produces the most energy it can year-round.

The process of installing solar energy is simple. Fist, take your time researching each step. Then, seek professional advice. If you still have questions after reading, feel free to contact us.
