Q: Can all homes support solar panel systems?

"If you're thinking about installing Solar I would highly suggest SolaTrue of Raleigh. I'm finally up and running on Solar. I was constantly getting solicitors coming to my door trying to sell me solar. I was always polite but I was diffently not the type to get solar. Until I met Todd with SolaTrue. I had already heard that Duke was going up on everyone electric in the coming months so i wanted to explore my options. Todd and I had done business together in the past several times and I knew he was someone I could trust. When he started talking to me about his company and the benefits of getting solar I scheduled an appointment. My husband and myself was very pleased learning about it and Todd informed us on things we had no clue about. I can honestly say that the whole team was amazing. Stacy was our main point of contact after Todd and she kept us informed every step of the way. The installers were on time and professional while doing the job. If you are even thinking about Solar I would not just go with any company I would give SolaTrue a call. Trust me I'm in real estate and I know not every company that claims to do solar is legit."

He mounted the dish without drilling through my new roof, which might have voided my roof warranty, Also, he mounted the dish in a location where it is easy for me to brush the snow off it in winter.
