"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."

"Greenlink Energy Solutions provided us with a white glove experience from start to finish. Emily took the time to listen to our questions, answer each of them fully, and guide us through the process of energy conservation. We knew we had issues in our attic but didn't realize the extent until we talked to several professionals. When I contacted GES, I wasn't aware of the incredible detail required to properly seal and insulate our attic space. I also wasn't aware of how poorly ours was built in 1994. Emily took pictures of every part of the attic, discussed each area, explained what is happening, why it is important to correct, and how GES can address each issue. The day of our project arrived and the insulation crew showed up on time and ready to work. They covered every walk space with heavy cloth tarps, donned protective shoes and clothing, and got right to work. They were incredibly quiet considering they needed to remove all old insulation, seal, and reinsulate. Very respectful of our home and our time. Emily followed up and discussed the work and results. We immediately noticed there is no longer a noticeable temp change between floors! GES is an excellent energy partner."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

In most states, solar installers need to be licensed and insured as solar professionals, although some states don’t have specific requirements for installers. You can use our state licensing tool to check if an installer you’re considering hiring holds the proper licensing. No matter where you live, a member of your solar panel installation company must be a certified electrician to connect your panels to your home and the electric grid.

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.

You’ll need to make sure you have a big enough solar panel to meet your well pump’s power demands, but you can use solar power to fully operate your well pump. It’s also a good idea to have battery storage to hold the solar power so you can still use your well pump after dark.

Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It’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’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.

Yes, you should tell your home insurance company about your solar panels. Even if you believe they’re covered by your existing policy, installing a solar panel system is a significant change to your home. This can affect coverage and premiums. By discussing your new solar panel installation with your insurance provider, you can be sure you have enough coverage and that the policy completely covers the panels against damage.
