"Just getting started. They have measured the roof and ordered the panels but nothing has been installed yet. I must say they have been excellent to work with. They answered all our questions and were able to explain the entire process. Other companies wouldn't talk to us unless we were interested in spending 30k. Icon solar gave us the best price and best customer service. When they first came to the house, we gave them our yearly electric bill, they adding the information to their computer and then explain all the information that came up. Then they gave us a jump drive and gave us time to go over it before contracting the job. Very professional. Awesome company."

"We bought a home to rennovate and needed a good contractor to help with the major projects. John was great from the start. I had 2 companies provide estimates but it was John's knowledge and manner that lead me to work with him. He was patient until we were ready to start and kept in contact. From the first day until the last he kept us informed. We made a few changes along the way and he was flexible. He kept the project within budget and on time. Each of the workers were friendly and professional. I had a problem with the lighting switch in the kitchen after the project was finished, but they came right back within a few days and fixed it.  I would not hesitate to use them again. They will be my first call on any future projects.

"They were backed up with a lot of work, but they fit me in and it was done very efficiently. I could not be there, so they called my mom's cell phone to come let them in. Worked out pretty good. Good sweat soldering of the copper lines."

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

On average, a typical fridge uses 115 kWh per month. With eight hours of sunlight per day, a 100-watt solar panel can produce 30 kWh per month. This means you’ll need at least four dedicated panels to power the refrigerator with solar energy. Consult with a solar power specialist to get a more accurate estimate.

Solar panels have a life span between 10 and 40 years, depending on the type of panel. For example, monocrystalline panels can last up to 40 years, while thin-film ones only last between 10 and 20 years. The longevity also comes down to keeping up with solar panel repairs and their related costs .

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.

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.

Ideally, you want to place them facing true south. This is different from what a compass shows, which is called the magnetic south. You can find true south by using an online calculator as long as you know the longitude and latitude of your property. Solar panel placement is key to maximizing the energy you generate, so this is an important step.
