Q: Do solar panels protect your roof from hail?

• <div><p>Solar panels can protect your roof from hail, as they can withstand hail up to 1 inch in diameter that falls up to 50 mph. Your solar panels may experience damage if the hailstones are bigger and travel faster. Your <a href="http://www.angi.com/articles/what-does-hail-damage-look-like.htm">roof can still suffer hail damage</a>, and it&rsquo;s essential to look for signs and repair issues right away. Roof damage can lead to leaks and water damage inside your home.</p></div>

Q: Do I need permits for solar panel installation?

• <div><p>Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it&rsquo;s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.</p></div>

Q: How many hours of sunlight do you need for solar panels?

• <div><p>Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It&rsquo;s even better if sunlight reaches panels between the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is enough to power a home, depending on your solar system&rsquo;s size and energy needs. Remember that panels will generate some power under cloudy skies or in the shade, and many systems compensate for lower sun exposure by drawing energy from the grid or battery storage.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for solar panels to pay for themselves?

• <div><p>Solar panels can pay for themselves in five to 15 years, depending on the cost of your system, how much energy it generates, whether you qualify for incentives or power buybacks, and the price of energy in your area. Solar panels pay for themselves over time as they lower electricity bills, so it will take time to recoup your initial investment. However, the longer you have your system, the more money you can save and earn.</p></div>

Q: Can I install solar panels by myself?

• <div><p>While you can install solar panels by yourself, it can be a complicated process full of lots of manual labor, risky roof work, and knowledge of electrical wiring. Most solar panel installation projects should be reserved for a trained professional&mdash;especially if you plan on connecting your panels to the electrical grid rather than for off-grid use, which doesn&rsquo;t require utility services.</p></div>

GreenPoint Roofing did another exceptional job. I have used them before and was so pleased with workmanship I went back to them when roof needed repair. Would really use no other roofing company. From project manager, solar people and roofing people everyone was great.

"I am so glad that I found Malone solar. I needed someone to remove my solar panels and then reinstall them when I got a new roof. Their price was reasonable. They communicated well and did not charge me until the job was done. Their pricing also included some materials that needed replacing. Their workers were kind and respectful of my property and cleaned up when they were done. I don’t usually leave recommendations but MLine earned my respect. If I have any solar needs in the future they are the solar service I will be calling. Thank you MLine! You are the kind of company I want to do business with."
