Q: Are flat or pitched roofs better for solar panels?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How many solar panels does it take to run a refrigerator?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How many hours of sunlight do you need for solar panels?

• <div><p>Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It&rsquo;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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Are solar panels worth it?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, solar panels are well worth the investment. Going solar with your home&rsquo;s energy is expensive, but, in most states, the panels will pay for themselves by reducing your electric bills. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-solar-panels-work.htm">Solar panels</a> don&rsquo;t produce greenhouse gasses or other pollutants, meaning you can feel good about using this renewable energy source to power your home. Plus, installing solar panels can boost your home value, helping your profit off your next home sale.</p></div>

Q: Do solar panels increase the value of my home?

• <div><p>Correctly installed solar panels will increase the value of your home by around 4%. With the median home sale set at $429,000, this means an increase of approximately $17,000. Many home buyers want to switch to solar, making homes that have this feature tempting and worth the investment compared to homes that are only tied to the grid. Other solar features, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/solar-shed-hassle-free-and-energy-efficient.htm">a shed with solar panels</a>, will also boost your home&rsquo;s value. </p></div>

Over charged for a zone panel.. cost of the zone panel was 178.00 and they charged me 378.00, plus 125.00 for labor and service call. The labor was 20 mins ... All I can say is check around for best price.. I paid 547.00 and it should have only been about 380.00 ..so merry Christmas BerMor

Wanted to sell products that were not appropriate for soil type. They spray for mold ;however this is not complete mold mitigation. They would have put up paneling on still moist walls and with incomplete mold mitigation. Too concerned with making $$$.

It was quite a lot because they had to put in a sub floor and cut off doors. I have a 130-year old house and an older type kitchen and my kitchen has five doors. So, with the sub flooring they had to cut off some of the doors and I have glass panels on three of them. They didn't have to cut them...

"I called and my timing must have been perfect. 2 technicians showed up 30 minutes later. They put on shoe covers which I appreciate. They opened up the unit and checked the flame and spark. That must have been enough since the unit started working. They checked to make sure the propane was flowing and cleaned the condensation pan. Within 30 minutes after arriving, they were done. I plan to have them come back in a couple of months to maintain the ductless splits for this summer. What they charge for the service is very reasonable given that I had contacted a competitor and received a quote that more than 2x what I paid."
