"Having Sunpower install our Solar panels has been a great experience. Arvin helped explain the system, process the paperwork, and made sure the installation and inspections were all done on time. Sunpower system has saved us alot in electrical costs. We are so happy with how this has turned out. Our system is actually performing 25% more efficiently than expected!! A big thanks to Arvin for all his help throughout this process."

"I cannot say enough amazing things about Urban Energy! From start to finish our solar installation was easy and seamless. We worked with Mark who helped us select the Sun Power A400 series solar panels, a superior product to other panels on the market and also carrying the best solar warranty in the industry with a 25 year warranty. Urban Energy handled everything with our city permit, from drafting and submitting plans and meeting with the city inspector for our final approval. It took the crew just 2.5 days to install our 26 panel system. The installation was super smooth and the installation crew was extremely professional and tidy. I could not believe how quick and fast the entire process was. Everyone we worked with at Urban Energy was knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous. From start to finish we always felt like we were in good hands and knew we made the right decision selecting Urban Energy above other solar companies. We are so thrilled to go green with our solar panels and feel confident with Sun Powers solar panels longevity and reliability. And of course we love the sleek and clean look of our panels as well!"

"We are so excited that NRG helped us to install Solar Panels on our house in San Francisco! Their entire team was wonderful from their first presentation providing us with all the information to the completion of the installation. Their installation staff was wonderful and completed the project without a hitch. Nicole Greenwood our customer service rep kept us informed of each step along the way and made everything easy. We had gotten estimates from two other companies and are glad we went with NRG. No worries and a wonderful experience. We will recommend NRG without reservation. Thanks to your whole team! Marge B."

"We decided to upgrade to solar/battery. After extensive research we selected McKay (now Nuonenergy) for both re-roofing and solar/battery install. Reason for choosing them was due to competitive price, single source for both re-roofing and solar/battery install as well as a very helpful and friendly sales team. The install went smoothly. Explained workflow in advance the completed work in a timely fashion. Work was completed by different teams all of whom were professional and friendly. They left worksite clean and communicated next steps in advance so we could plan our day. System install now completed, including all inspections by city and electrical provider. Very satisfied with the service we received from McKay/Nuonenergy."

"I’m so excited today. Baker Electric is completing the installation of my Tesla battery which will connect to my solar system. The entire process has been seamless. From the very beginning I received informative emails from the office keeping me up to date about required permits, process needs and what to expect next. As luck would have it, I also received a call that the workers could come to my home a day earlier than I was promised and they asked if I wanted them to start early! I knew when to anticipate their arrival and what they would need to get started on the project. Before the workers began the installation of my battery, they reviewed what the two-day process would look like and when to expect my electricity to be turned off. As they worked, they kept the work area clean, reminding me where they were in the process, and when the electricity would be off. No matter how many questions I asked, they acted like responding to me was a priority and didn’t walk away unti"

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

You can install solar panels on a metal roof, but it will require some additional thought and care versus a traditional asphalt shingle roof. That’s because heat dissipates off a metal roof differently than asphalt or wood, so you may need to space the panels further from the roof. However, a pro can help you with the details and provide a safe and effective installation.

Not all homes are suited for solar panel systems. Older roofs or those in poor condition may need repairs or replacement before solar panels can be installed. Some other factors to consider are the amount of sunlight your roof receives, the roof’s orientation and pitch, and any shading from nearby trees or buildings.

The morning sun can be better for solar panels because it’s often brighter and clearer than the afternoon sun. The brighter the sun, the more energy solar panels produce. The strongest rays occur during midday, which tends to be prime time for solar energy generation. Most homes get a mix of morning and afternoon sunlight.

You can start narrowing your search for a reputable solar company by finding local, regional, and national companies that service your area and maintain positive reviews online. You should also check the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to see if the company has complaints filed against them. Next, contact the remaining candidates and ask about installation timelines, warranty coverage, and financing options. Choose a company that offers a labor warranty that lasts at least 10 years and prioritizes cash purchases and solar loans.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.
