Q: Where is the best place to install solar panels on your roof?

• <div><p>Ideally, you want to place them facing true south. This is different from what a compass shows, which is called the magnetic south. You can find true south by using an online calculator as long as you know the longitude and latitude of your property. Solar panel placement is key to maximizing the energy you generate, so this is an important step.</p></div>

Q: How do I find a reputable solar panel company?

• <div><p>You can start narrowing your search for a reputable solar company by finding local, regional, and national companies that service your area and maintain positive reviews online. You should also check the Better Business Bureau&rsquo;s (BBB) website to see if the company has complaints filed against them. Next, contact the remaining candidates and ask about installation timelines, warranty coverage, and financing options. Choose a company that offers a labor warranty that lasts at least 10 years and prioritizes cash purchases and solar loans.</p></div>

Q: Should I install solar batteries along with my panels?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/solar-battery-cost.htm">Solar batteries</a> can be a great investment to help maximize your solar savings and make your system and home more valuable, but they&rsquo;re most beneficial to customers who don&rsquo;t have access to net metering. If your state or energy provider doesn&rsquo;t provide net metering, batteries can be a great way to offset consumption even when your panels aren&rsquo;t producing power. They also come with the added benefit of providing electricity through blackouts, so they&rsquo;re valuable in areas prone to severe weather that could cause frequent blackouts. Your installer can help you decide if batteries are worthwhile.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take for solar panels to pay for themselves?

• <div><p>Solar panels can pay for themselves in five to 15 years, depending on the cost of your system, how much energy it generates, whether you qualify for incentives or power buybacks, and the price of energy in your area. Solar panels pay for themselves over time as they lower electricity bills, so it will take time to recoup your initial investment. However, the longer you have your system, the more money you can save and earn.</p></div>

Q: Do solar panels need to be removed to replace the shingles?

• <div><p>In almost every case, solar panels need to be removed to replace roof shingles. In some cases, such as solar installations where the panels are on raised platforms above the roof surface, installers may be able to install new shingles without removing the solar installation. However, to get a quality roofing installation, panels need to come off. Most roofing contractors won&rsquo;t remove or reinstall solar panels as part of a roofing project, so you&rsquo;ll need to contact your solar provider.</p></div>

"I was very impressed with the installer who was sent. 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. I appreciate his knowledge and thoughtfulness. Also, they didn't charge me to re-install the dish."

"The last was a rental company that we have and we used them for an air conditioning and heating system. It was Bototach Mechanical. It’s been a good program for us. They’re very responsive. I don’t know what the thought process was. My husband said, well let’s try these guys and so we did. We have an older home and it’s proved to be a very good deal. The quality has been pretty good, so I would give them an A for the quality. I will give you one helpful hint though. If the company decides they want to replace an appliance, you need to call them and negotiate with them because you can upgrade, but you need to talk to them in person not just do it over the internet."
