How to Choose Your Perfect Solar Solution
Selecting the right solar system isn't rocket science - but it does require some smart thinking. Consider these key factors:
-
Energy Consumption: Calculate your average monthly electricity usage. A typical US home uses around 900 kWh monthly, so match your system's output accordingly. Pro tip: Check your recent electricity bills for precise numbers.
-
Available Space: Roof area matters! Photovoltaic panels need specific square footage. Residential systems typically require 400-600 square feet of unshaded roof space. Ground installations offer more flexibility but need open land.
-
Budget and Financing: Solar isn't just an expense - it's an investment. Most systems pay for themselves within 7-10 years through energy savings. We offer flexible financing options to make clean energy accessible to everyone.
-
Local Regulations: Some areas offer tax credits, rebates, and incentives for solar installations. Check local guidelines to maximize your savings and potential government support.
We also deal electric vehicle battery chargers in case you need one.
Don't just dream about energy independence - make it happen! Browse our complete solar systems collection and find your perfect match. Whether you're a sustainability champion or a budget-conscious homeowner, Build The Power has got the solar solution waiting for you.
FAQs
How much does a complete solar system cost?
Ans: Complete solar systems range from $5,000 to $25,000, depending on home size, energy needs, and system complexity. Most residential systems average between $15,000-$20,000 before federal tax credits and local incentives.
Can I install a solar system myself?
Ans: While DIY installation is possible, professional installation is recommended. Certified installers ensure proper setup, maximize system efficiency, maintain warranty coverage, and comply with local electrical and building codes.
How long do solar panels last?
Ans: Most solar panels come with 25-30 year warranties and can continue producing electricity at 80% efficiency even after 30 years. Regular maintenance helps extend their operational lifespan and performance.
Will solar panels work during power outages?
Ans: With battery storage systems, solar panels can provide backup power during outages. Grid-tied systems without battery backup will shut down during electricity interruptions for safety reasons.
How quickly can I recoup my solar investment?
Ans: Typical solar system payback periods range from 7-10 years, depending on local electricity rates, system size, and available incentives. After this period, you'll generate essentially free electricity.
Do solar systems increase home value?
Ans: Studies show solar installations can increase home value by 4-5%. Buyers appreciate lower energy costs and pre-installed renewable energy systems, making your property more attractive in the real estate market.
What maintenance do solar systems require?
Ans: Solar systems require minimal maintenance. Annual professional inspections, occasional panel cleaning, and checking connection points are typically sufficient to maintain optimal system performance.
Can solar systems power my entire home?
Ans: Properly designed solar systems can generate 100% of a home's electricity needs. System size, roof space, local sunlight conditions, and energy consumption determine complete energy offset potential.
