How long will a solar system last?
With our Maxeon solar panels we offer the longest warrany in the industry: 40 years. And that covers both the product and the performance, which is not the case for all the other standard panel warranties. That’s because we know that our technology is designed to last even more than 40 years. Our Performance value line are backed by a 25-year Warranty. . Regular maintenance, environmental conditions, usage patterns, and technological advancements can influence their lifespan.
Why should I limit shading from trees?
To maximize system production. Trees, plants, rooftop antennas, satellite dishes, and other obstructions can block the sunlight from reaching the panels. If any portion of the panel is shaded, your system will produce electricity at a reduced level. Should you need to trim vegetation or move objects that might shade the panels, please do so during the daylight hours and use caution.
What financing options are available for solar panel installations?
There are several financing options for solar installations, including solar loans, solar leases, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs).
How do solar panels work?
When sunlight strikes a solar cell, it dislodges electrons from atoms, creating an electric current. Connectors on the cell's positive and negative sides form an electrical circuit. This flow of electrons generates electricity. Solar panels consist of numerous cells, and you can connect multiple panels to create a solar array. The greater the number of panels you use, the more energy you can produce.
Are there any government incentives or tax breaks available for installing solar panels?
Many governments offer incentives, tax credits, and rebates to promote solar energy adoption. These incentives can significantly reduce the up front cost of installation. Common incentives include tax credits, rebates, and net metering programs.
How does shade affect the solar system’s performance?
Solar panels operate most efficiently when they’re able to soak up as much sun as possible. Let us evaluate your particular situation and provide some options for you.
