"I pride myself on being thorough and doing the necessary due diligence before undertaking a major project. Deciding that we are through paying through the nose for electric, our family decided to go solar. I arranged consultations with a dozen representatives of local solar companies. Each and every representative besides anthony at morning solar insisted on phone meetings and remote satellite pictures to estimate the project parameters for my home. In my opinion, a large project that is a sizable investment requires personalized diagnostics. The other representatives remotely used 2 year old satellite pictures to estimate where to put panels and how many. I told them it is simply impossible to do so remotely as I have removed 25 trees from the vicinity of my home and the information they received from the outdated photos are pointless. Irregardless, the phone conversations all went the same. They emailed me project estimates without so much as stepping foot on my property. Besides being overpriced and inaccurate for my home, the technology in all the estimates was obsolete. Needless to say, it was quite discouraging. Anthony at Morning Star Solar Group drove personally to my home, gave me a hearty handshake and began to assess the situation. Taking photos on site and estimating where the sun rises and sets in relation to my home gave a me a personalized solution to my energy problems. Anthony is the only solar professional I dealt with to go the extra mile for their customer. We completed our solar project together as a team and now 2 years later, I can safely say going with Morning Star was the definitive right move!"

"In order to get my roof repaired, I had to get my solar panels taken down and replaced. Bright Light Energy Corp got the job done for $400 less than my original quote and began work the day after I contacted them. The first company had a 30-day wait. They are clearly professionals who know their business and provide a well-done service in the time and cost they quote. I highly recommend this company."

"I had solar panels installed by SunPower's subcontractor Hooked on Solar in 2020. In 2023 some of the panels were damaged by an electrical outage and surge. It took about 4 months for Hooked on Solar to identify the damaged panels, schedule an appointment to replacement, but finally they fixed the panels."

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

In most states, solar installers need to be licensed and insured as solar professionals, although some states don’t have specific requirements for installers. You can use our state licensing tool to check if an installer you’re considering hiring holds the proper licensing. No matter where you live, a member of your solar panel installation company must be a certified electrician to connect your panels to your home and the electric grid.

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.

Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It’s even better if sunlight reaches panels between the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is enough to power a home, depending on your solar system’s size and energy needs. Remember that panels will generate some power under cloudy skies or in the shade, and many systems compensate for lower sun exposure by drawing energy from the grid or battery storage.

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.

Yes, it is possible to install solar panels on a tar and gravel roof, but it is not the ideal roofing material for a solar installation. The process requires roof penetrations to install the solar racking system. While installers will seal these penetrations, they still increase the risk of leaks. This risk is higher on tar and gravel roofs, which are often flat. Flat roofs are more prone to leaks than sloped roofs because they can pool water during heavy rain and hold snow for longer periods, exposing the roof to more moisture.
