"I hired this company to do electrical run from my house to my shed. I was so impressed with their work and then reasonable price for the work they did. I had another problem with electric in my kitchen. I called them to come and fix it which they did in a short amount of time for a reasonable price. I would call them anytime."

"Professional, responsive, and efficient. Sunup Solar designed and installed our off-grid system during late winter and fit into our time crunch to move into our new home. We are ecstatic to show photos and tell others how an off-grid lifestyle can be modern, and in our case, even within sight of on-grid neighbors. During the hottest days we run AC without worrying about a power bill, and when a summer storm hits our lights never go out. Our home has become an example for countless family and friends to consider building off-grid, and we continue to recommend Sunup Solar to folks across New England. Thank you Hunter and your team for powering our dream home."

"We got TWO (you see in pics one has green seat cover, the other purple) Kohler water saver 1.28gpf plug free toilets! I have special needs with my back and we got exactly what we wanted round bowl and standard height. He upgrades from glacier bay to awesome #1 Kohler us because of an initial miscommunication that we easily worked out. Yay! No more plugging AND water savings so they will pay for themselves within a year. Thank you Chuck. We will call your for our next plumbing job!"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Solar shingles and solar panels are not the same. While solar shingles use the same technology as traditional solar panels, they integrate with your existing roof. That means they are used to build your roof instead of simply resting on top of it. When comparing solar shingles and solar panels, it's helpful to know that solar shingles are more aesthetically pleasing than solar roof panels. They also do better in harsh weather due to limited uplift from strong winds.

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.

Solar shingles typically last between 20 and 30 years, a lifespan comparable to that of traditional solar panels and standard asphalt shingles. The exact duration depends on the manufacturer and the quality of the installation. Because solar shingles are a newer technology, there is limited data on their actual long-term performance. Factors that can impact their durability and longevity include weather conditions, roof ventilation, and regular maintenance. To extend the life of your solar shingles, you should conduct regular inspections and cleaning, and make any necessary repairs as quickly as possible.

No, you cannot turn on a new solar system before inspection. The inspector checks that the system is correctly connected to the grid and that safety components and features are in place. This process prevents problems on the electrical grid and offers protection against fire in your home. 

Your local utility company may also require inspection documentation before you can connect to the grid. An inspection can ensure solar power efficiency and determine how you might increase it.

While you can minimally overshoot the number of solar panels you need for your home, it's not smart to go too far. Not only is the extra cost unnecessary, but your state may put caps on how much energy your home can produce and send back to the grid. It is always best to work with a solar energy professional to determine the best system size for you.
