"Earth Right Mid-Atlantic was one of several companies we consulted for the installation of solar panels and attic fans for our new home in Williamsburg. The presentation, by Corey Argentino, was informative and provided a clear idea of the costs for various systems and what we might expect over time. We installed the reflective foil in the attic along with the solar powered fan over the summer and had solar panels installed in the Fall. The entire process was done in a very professional manner and the final results appear to be positive (we havenâ t had a full yearâ s experience yet to know comparable results). Once the solar panels were completed, and I downloaded the application to monitor them, I really like looking at the app and seeing how much power we are generating. Once we have a full year of experience, we may expand the solar panel configuration but only time will tell as we move forward. Earth Right Mid-Atlantic powered by Convert Solar makes a great team to help reduce our carbon footprint!"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

There are a few great questions to ask a solar contractor or inspector when you speak to them. You’ll probably want to find out about the energy yield and efficiency of your array, ensuring the actual output matches the amount you calculated when installing the array in the first place. It’s also a good idea to find out about any damage or wear and tear on the array and to inquire about how soon you need to make repairs or replacements to essential components.

The average homeowner needs around 22 solar panels, but the exact number depends on your monthly energy consumption. Your solar professional should size your array to offset your consumption, meaning you’ll need fewer panels if you use below-average amounts of electricity, or more than 22 if you use above-average amounts of electricity. The number of panels also depends on the output of each panel. The average is around 400 watts, but you might need more panels if you install less capable equipment. Since there are so many variables, you should have a professional size your system.

For most U.S. homeowners, switching to solar energy is an excellent investment. A properly sized solar array can significantly reduce your electric bill, saving money on utilities every month. Most homeowners enjoy savings that cover the cost of their solar systems within 12 years and then turn a profit. Additionally, federal and state tax incentives are available that help make solar an even better and more profitable investment.

Installing solar panels involves drilling small holes in your roof to secure the solar panel mounting brackets. These brackets hold the solar panels in place and must withstand strong weather conditions so they’re secured into your roof. However, holes and screws are sealed to prevent leaking and further damage.

As long as your solar panels are properly installed without damage to your roof, they will not shorten the roof’s life span. Solar panels can act as a cover or barrier to your roof and help block external elements, such as debris, heat, and UV rays. Reduced exposure to the weather can extend your roof’s life.
