What are some of the most common solar panel blockers?

• <div>Learn about common solar blockers in your area to determine how often you should wash solar panels and the best cleaning method:<ul><li>Soot: If you have a fireplace, soot can disperse and accumulate on the solar panels.</li><li>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.</li><li>Pollen: Areas with a high pollen count require more frequent solar panel cleaning, and sticky plant material requires a deeper cleaning.</li><li>Bird droppings: Bird droppings are binding and more difficult to remove. Keep this in mind if you live near a lot of surrounding trees. </li></ul></div>

Q: How much do solar panels cost?

• <div>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-install-solar-panels.htm">cost to install solar panels</a> is around $26,600, and most homeowners pay between $4,500 and $53,000. Keep in mind that these prices don&rsquo;t consider the federal investment tax credit (ITC), which can effectively reduce those costs by up to 30%.

Get price quotes from at least three solar companies in your area to find the best deal.</div>

Q: How long does it take to install solar panels?

• <div>The time it takes to install solar panels depends on the number of panels and the size of your home, but installation takes between two and three days of work. While most contractors can install the panels over the course of a couple of days, switching to solar energy can take two to three months in total. This includes the time it takes to design the system, procure the parts, obtain the permits, install the panels, connect to the main power grid, and get an inspection. </div>

"Two of our smartest friends - one in Minneapolis, -- the other in St. Paul, used All Energy Solar for their solar panels for their electric systems . So we talked with them about their experience and it was so positive we went with All Energy. Great communication, great project management. We wanted to do solar to offset a new air conditioning system. All Energy worked with Xcel when we had a disagreement with the power company about how much capacity we would need. Another reviewer called the process 'seamless' and that's how it felt for us too. Have recommended All Energy Solar to friends."
