"We planned to become solar after we remodeled our house in 2019 however we did not know how to find a contractor. SCSP was the first one we contacted and we are glad we did. They assessed our property and our electricity consumption. Quickly they provided options on the number of solar panels and their locations. The sales process was expedited with detailed documentation of the proposed system layout. The installation took a week. Although I am very picky about cable runs not hidden, I can say that the installation was very well done. We were nervous on a 70' long trench to dig through our new backyard but we do not notice it anymore. The connection took one month, which I would have wished to be shorter. Our solar system consists of 63 panels and three sets of batteries. It has been running since February: - We have seen a major impact on our electric bill. Our last bill was divided by eight with even a refund on one of our meters. - The Enphase application is a great tool that provides real-time tracking of the electricity consumption, the solar production, the battery charging, and the supply to the grid - We experienced a 4hr power outage after a storm It was nice to have power while our neighborhoods were in the dark. - SCSP is very proactive in providing support, when we have concerns. Overall we are pleased with our systems. It is a pricey systems and remains pricey even with the tax credit but the saving on electricity bill will definitively help over the years. Being independent from the grid in case of loss of power, as well as minimizing the impact on the environment, are both a great feeling. We strongly recommend SCSP for their quality of service."

"Gary, was very helpful and pointed me on the right direction after I had discussed my concerns. Had he been able to help me I would have gladly hired him. My system ended up being under warranty and he suggested I contact the manufacture as to not void my warranty."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.

The best solar-panel mounting system will depend on your property layout, but you’ll typically want to try for south-facing panels to get the most sun. Roof mounting and wall mounting are both popular, but if your well setup is far away from buildings and other structures you can also set up a freestanding aluminum frame to mount your panels.

In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.

Yes, installing solar panels or a solar roof can increase your home's value by approximately 4% to 6%. For a home with a median value of $429,000, this could translate to an increase of around $17,000. A well-maintained solar installation appeals to environmentally-conscious buyers and those looking to lower their utility bills, often helping homes sell faster and at a premium in areas with high electricity rates. However, the exact increase in value depends on factors like the local real estate market, energy costs, and available solar incentives. It's also important that the system is correctly installed and maintained; an older or poorly maintained system may not add significant value, particularly if it's near the end of its lifespan. Other solar features, like panels on a shed, can also boost your home's value.
