"I've been with Posigen for about 7 years now and have always paid my bills on time!!!! As of Feb. 2022, I haven't been able to monitor my Solar Production because Posigen haven't updated their system to 5g Capability!!! I told them my payments are to be deferred until they update the system on their end!!! I spoke with a couple Reps that said your panels are producing what they should based on your production on your Electric Bill!!! I asked how can I know if I cant see the daily production to ensure the panels are producing what they should!!! They said take my word for it!!! I'm like that's very bogus to tell a faithful customer to take your word!!! Especially when the issue is not on their end!!! Now because of Non-Payments for 2 months of me not knowing what I'm producing since Feb, they're now threatening to shut my system off!!! Who treats a customer like this when the issue is on their end!!! Especially when that customer has been making faithful payments up into them not upgrading the system on their end!!! Can someone please recommend A good lawyer to stop them from interfering with system!!! Again, the issue is not on my end!!! I need help!!!!"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Solar shingles last between 20 and 30 years, which is about as long as solar panels and standard asphalt shingles last. Their exact life span depends on the manufacturer and the quality of installation. You can increase the longevity of your solar shingles by conducting regular inspections and maintenance and making any necessary repairs as quickly as possible.

It’s possible to install solar on a tar and gravel roof, but it’s far from the best roofing material for solar. Solar installations require roof penetrations, and although your solar installer will seal the holes, they still increase the risk of roof leaks. Flat roofs are already more likely to leak than sloped roofs, and adding solar will only make leaks more likely.

The actual time it takes to construct the solar farm is relatively short, taking between 2 and 4 months on average. That timeline is dependent on site conditions, crew size, and the overall size of the solar farm.

However, the time it takes to get the ball rolling is significantly longer, ranging from 3 to 5 years. With a project of this scale, you’ll need to obtain all of the proper permits and approvals to start breaking ground, and depending on your location, that could be an extended process.

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.

Learn about common solar blockers in your area to determine how often you should wash solar panels and the best cleaning method:

  • Soot: If you have a fireplace, soot can disperse and accumulate on the solar panels.

  • Debris, dirt, and leaves: These natural elements require light cleaning. Being close to trees or living in a desert area can cause more of these to accumulate.

  • Pollen: Areas with a high pollen count require more frequent solar panel cleaning, and sticky plant material requires a deeper cleaning.

  • Bird droppings: Bird droppings are binding and more difficult to remove. Keep this in mind if you live near a lot of surrounding trees.
