Unfortunately, we no longer accept requests through Angi or Homeadvisor due to the number of fake contacts we have received. So, if you would like to contact us here at GRID, you must do so directly through our website or phone. If you would like more information, you can either call or text our toll free number 833-474-3552, or visit our website www.GRIDSOLARLLC.com We are a locally owned and operated solar company. We have seen the gimmicks and scams the big companies have been using and decided educate people about how solar REALLY works. We sell fewer systems because of how we operate, but we're okay with that because we do it the right way. Thanks!

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

For most U.S. homeowners, switching to solar energy is an excellent investment. A properly sized solar array can significantly reduce your electric bill, saving money on utilities every month. Most homeowners enjoy savings that cover the cost of their solar systems within 12 years and then turn a profit. Additionally, federal and state tax incentives are available that help make solar an even better and more profitable investment.

You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.

The average-sized home in the U.S.—around 2,500 square feet—will require between 15 and 34 solar panels to power the whole home. The specific number, however, will have less to do with home size and more to do with how much energy you use each year and the amount of sunlight in your region.

It’s possible that installing solar panels can lead to mold on the roof. The panels themselves are not the issue. Problems caused by improper installation—such as roof leaks and mounts that aren’t sealed properly—can cause mold. Another potential cause of mold is debris accumulation under panels, which can trap moisture. If you live somewhere with extreme snow, rain, or hail, your home could be more prone to mold.

Most solar panels last 25 to 30 years and have a warranty to match. Over time, you’ll see a diminishing electrical output. This is normal wear, but certain things can hasten solar degradation. These include heavy rainfall, high temperatures, constant humidity that corrodes the frame, and cracks or chips in the glass.
