Solar panels cannot produce electricity at night when the sun is down so that is when your home will draw power from the grid.
Do solar panels have to be on the home.
The masses have come to begrudgingly accept the appearance of solar panels installed on the roofs of homes.
There are still some zoning restrictions in certain suburban communities that have home owner association rules against this but by and large roof mounted solar panels have become an acceptable norm.
The solar panels produce electricity during the day when the sun is shining and that electricity is used to power your home.
All solar panels meet international inspection and testing standards and a qualified installer will install them to meet local building fire and electrical codes.
Usually when solar panels are installed on a home they are tied to the grid.
Some homeowners even generate enough electricity to sell some of it back to the power company.
And there s never been a better time to think about making the leap.
The latter is key for you to be able to track the energy production of your home s solar panels more on that later.
Also your solar energy system will undergo a thorough inspection from a certified electrician as part of the installation process.
However you should know that the high cost of solar panels can cause problems if you re trying to get a mortgage.
Simply put the more energy your solar panels produce the more solar energy.
