Summer Checklist: Solar Panel Installation

When you are putting together your summer bucket list, it’s common to choose fun activities with the family. But don’t forget about a summer checklist for your home maintenance projects as well! As the weather is warming up, it’s the perfect time to get outside and work on the projects that have been on the backburner. Solar power installation might be one option that you are ready to invest in this summer.

Benefits of Solar Power for the Summer

The more you run the air conditioner during the summer months, the higher utility bills you will be paying. This expense can cut into your budget and make it hard to keep up with the increasing cost of living. Solar panels help to offset your spending by using free energy from the sun, so you don’t have to tap into the grid as much for electricity.

Once you install solar panels, you will enjoy the benefits of these panels for many years in the future. Over time, the cost savings add up, helping you recover the expenses that you put into the solar panel installation.

Checklist for Solar Panel Installation

Here are a few steps you might follow if you are considering solar panel installation this summer:

• Schedule a Consultation: Reach out to a local solar power installation team to see if panels are a good fit for your home. We’ll schedule a time to meet for a complimentary, no-obligation conversation, then put together an estimate for the project.
• Plan the Installation: Once you decide to move forward, it’s time to look at the best way to reduce or eliminate your energy bill. First, we’ll take a look at your current bill and provide recommendations based on your monthly electricity usage. Then, we can design the layout to maximize efficiency, considering the positioning of the sun and different climate considerations.
• Inspecting the Roof: A structural inspection must be done to ensure the roofing structure is strong enough to hold the solar panels. Also, consider the age and quality of the roofing materials (you might want to reroof before installing the panels).

Next, it’s time to move forward with the installation! Our team at New Day Solar takes care of all of the details to make this as stress-free as possible. For more information, call to book a free consultation: (855) 444-6329.
